On tonight's episode (December 4) of I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!, the remaining campmates began the battle for a golden ticket to secure a place in the iconic Celebrity Cyclone.
ITV viewers saw the likes of Coleen Rooney, GK Barry and McFly's Danny Jones head to Arcade of Agony first, ahead of the ultimate trial taking place later this week.
Over the next two days, the campmates will be competing for a golden ticket to Celebrity Cyclone and the lucky winner will also win immunity from the next two vote offs.
However, some viewers were not best pleased that ITV had changed up the concept ahead of the cyclone challenge with the broadcaster being accused of "ruining" the series.

One said on X: "Nah, not up for this at all. Taking part in the cyclone is a privilege bestowed by the viewers. You’ve actually ruined a great series by doing this. And we all know it’ll be Colleen."
Another commented: "If this is an immunity thing, please don't. It skews the order in which the public vote them out. I'm always suspicious of this. You know who is likely to be up next and are trying to save them unfairly."
One person said: "Please don’t ruin the show by granting immunity to people.
"That’s not fair on the viewers who are voting for their favorites."
Also agreeing, this user shared: "Already not a fan of this cyclone golden ticket…. Should be the public’s decision #imaceleb."

Someone else put: "No. No. Why are they having to compete for cyclone tickets?! They’ve never done this before!"
An ITV fan demanded: "Stop messing with the vote!"
But others were in favour of the change, saying: "Soooo good! Love it."
What happened on I'm a Celebrity last night?
Aside from Melvin Odoom becoming the fourth celebrity to be voted out of camp by the public, the campmates recalled stories about when they first realised they were famous on Tuesday night (December 3).
The episode saw Reverend Richard Coles reveal he once walked on stage to a “barrage of knickers” while he was in pop duo The Communards.
The 62-year-old radio presenter said: “The big thing for us came when we had Don’t Leave Me This Way and it was number one for weeks and weeks, and I remember we were playing in Ireland and we were booked into a sports stadium, we came on stage and there was this barrage of knickers. All these girls threw their knickers.

“Never in the history of recorded sound did a girl throw her knickers at a band to less effect than to The Communards, I think Jimmy (Somerville) made a scrunchie out of a pair of them and that was it.”
Elsewhere, all the campmates were finally invited to spend the evening at the Jungle Arms, where the group enjoyed drinks, bar snacks, pizza and karaoke.
I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! continues nightly at 9pm on ITV1, STV and ITVX.
