I'm A Celebrity viewers have expressed their outrage over a new twist introduced just before the final, claiming it has spoiled the series. Although fans of the ITV show were enjoying the season, they voiced a major grievance during Thursday's episode.
Danny, Maura, Coleen, and Oti were challenged to complete another trial in hopes of winning a ticket for the Celebrity Cyclone. Oti impressed hosts Ant and Dec with her performance, earning the ticket and immunity from the next two eliminations.
However, fans were disgruntled with the change, feeling "rigged" as their power to choose was removed. Normally, the audience votes for who they want to see in the Celebrity Cyclone, the Mirror reports.
Disappointed viewers took to social media to express their discontent. One viewer remarked: "So they can win cyclone and there's no vote for which two go? ? ? It's feeling rigged." Another said: "I think we're all confused."
A third added: "I also don't like how we don't get to chose who's in the cyclone? ? Like it's normally who we all voted for and wanted there. And I know it's a good camp, just seems a bit c**p."
A fourth pleaded: "Can they please go back to the original format of public vote it's so much better." Another fan commented: "Trying to keep the series fresh by introducing the golden ticket for the cyclone and immunity has actually spoilt the series for me this year... and it was so good before this!

Fans have called for the Cyclone challenge to be decided by a public vote, amidst the news that Oti Mabuse has won immunity from the next two evictions.
The 34-year-old ex-Strictly Come Dancing favourite and Dancing on Ice judge secured her exemption after enduring a drenching of jungle slime and fish guts in the latest trial, where she competed against fellow campmates Danny Jones, Coleen Rooney and Maura Higgins.
Presenters Ant and Dec introduced the 'Battle Blocks' game, announcing that the first to hit the golden buzzer would win the Ticket to Cyclone. Ant quipped: "Even though you press the golden buzzer that doesn't mean you're through to the live shows of Britain's Got Talent, that's a different show, don't get confused."
Amidst the mayhem, Oti burst forth from her designated area in a dash to smash the golden buzzer, with glittering confetti exploding overhead as she revelled in victory.
An impressed Dec exclaimed: "Oti! That was incredible! " while Ant praised: "Absolutely brilliant." Dec then presented Oti with the prized golden ticket, ensuring her a spot in the much-anticipated Celebrity Cyclone and her immunity advantage.
Oti couldn't hide her delight, humorously remarking: "It feels amazing, I've got to wash my underwear more now! ".
