I’m A Celebrity South Africa viewers were left fuming at the end of the episode as they said “what’s the point”.

During Monday’s (April 13) instalment of the ITV hit reality show, the existing campmates were left surprised as they welcomed two new celebrities to the jungle.

Harry Redknapp and Jimmy Bullard entered the camp but the episode featured a cliffhanger twist that didn’t go down well with viewers.

Moments before finding out the identity of their new campmates, Scarlett read out an announcement inviting everyone to Kings Croc Station.

Once they arrived Ant & Dec greeted them, saying: “Camp life as you know it is about to change. From today, you will be split into two kingdoms: The Lions and The Rhinos.

“Over the next few days you will be competing head-to-head in trials and challenges. Only the winning kingdom will eat dinner. The losers will survive on rice and beans.”

Ant continued, explaining they are also competing for pennants, and the team that accumulates the most will be taken on a safari to see all of South Africa’s wonderful animals and enjoy a tasty bush banquet.

“Every good kingdom needs a king,” Dec says. “So it’s time to welcome two new campmates…”

The Royal Express then arrived at the platform, with the campmates eager to see which new faces would be joining them. It was then revealed that Harry Redknapp and Jimmy Bullard were entering the camp.

Taking their place on the thrones, the pair were introduced as the Lion King (Harry) and the Rhino King (Jimmy), with them taking it in turns to create their new teams.

The new monarchs had to choose their subjects, so they took it in turns to create their new teams. Before the new teams could even settle into their new camps, they were already taking on their next trial, Wicked Watering Hole.

Both teams were instructed to select two representatives to head to the trial area. The chosen campmates, plus their kings Harry and Jimmy, make their way to the trial. Harry decided to take David Haye and Ashley Roberts and while Jimmy chose Adam Thomas and Craig Charles.

The teams were given ten minutes to find as many golden nuggets as possible, which vary drastically in size. The team whose bowl weighed the heaviest at the final whistle was to be crowned the victor.

However viewers were left unimpressed as the show ended on a cliffhanger and viewers didn’t get to see the outcome of the trial tonight. One viewer wrote: “Seems like this year loves to leave the episodes on a cliffhanger I can’t see the trial finishing in less than 10 mins erghhhh #Imaceleb.”

Another fumed: “What’s the point in an ad break when the show finishes in 10 minutes #ImACeleb.” A third questioned: “Why a break when there’s only 10 mins left… #ImACeleb.”

Another said: “Er….why are we getting an ad break when there’s just 8 minutes left of the show? Are we returning just for 30 seconds for the show to end? Tf.”

One asked: “Did we not just have an ad break 5 minutes ago #Imaceleb.” Meanwhile another added: “Be prepared for a Cliffhanger… annoying#ImACeleb.”
