The &#8216;Gogglebox&#8217; star, who was crowned Queen Of The Jungle in the original 2016 series, finished last in a crucial trial and was sent home as the last girl standing in the competition.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"2\"\/>&#8220;I felt like I was so close. I was the last girl standing,&#8221; she told hosts Ant and Dec on her way out.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"4\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h2>How Scarlett Moffatt was eliminated<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>The challenge required celebrities to count coloured balls as they rolled down a tube while being showered with maggots, cockroaches, crickets, and mealworms. The five contestants were then asked how many blue balls there had been, with whoever&#8217;s estimate was furthest from the correct figure facing elimination. Moffatt&#8217;s answer proved the least accurate, ending her run in the competition.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"9\"\/>Thursday night&#8217;s episode also saw the celebrities take part in the Cyclone challenge, which required them to clamber along a water slide to reach stars while being pelted with huge balls and sprayed with high-pressure hoses. The group won the task, resulting in all of them receiving phone messages from their loved ones at home. They also enjoyed a breakfast of 10 eggs between them after successfully catching them from a large &#8220;chicken&#8221; roosting in a tree above their camp.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"12\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h2>What Scarlett Moffatt said on her way out<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Reflecting on her time in camp, Moffatt admitted the South African spin-off had proved more challenging than her victorious 2016 stint. &#8220;Just the trials. Who comes up with these? They&#8217;re sickos,&#8221; she said with characteristic humour. Asked why she returned, she said, &#8220;This show honestly means everything to us.&#8221;<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"15\"\/>She added that despite the difficulty, &#8220;I&#8217;ve really, really had the best time.&#8221; Asked about her fellow campmates, she said, &#8220;We&#8217;re all as mad as a box of frogs, aren&#8217;t we? I just feel like everyone&#8217;s eccentrically wonderful.&#8221;<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"18\"\/>When asked who she would like to see win, she was clear. &#8220;Please Mo. He is just the most wonderful human being. There&#8217;s not a bad bone in his body.&#8221;<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"20\"\/>She also took a moment to address hosts Ant and Dec directly. &#8220;I just feel like growing up, I watched you two on SMTV Live, and hearing your accent made me feel like, if I wanted to do it, then I could, because of you. It means a lot.&#8221;<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"22\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h2>Who is left in the competition?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Moffatt&#8217;s exit sets up an all-male finale, with Olympian Sir Mo Farah, football manager Harry Redknapp, actor and DJ Craig Charles, and actor Adam Thomas now competing for the title of &#8220;ultimate legend 2026.&#8221;<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"25\"\/>The final of &#8216;I&#8217;m A Celebrity&#8230; South Africa&#8217; airs from 7.30pm on Friday on ITV1.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"27\"\/><\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source timesofindia.indiatimes.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Scarlett Moffatt has been eliminated from &#8216;I&#8217;m A Celebrity&#8230; South Africa&#8217;, just one day before the series finale.
