I'm a Celebrity... South Africa aired a double elimination last night (Monday, May 8), and its fair to say that fans were not happy with the result!

On Friday, May 5, four celebs — Myleene Klass and Jordan Banjo and Georgia Toffolo and Andy Whyment— were sent off to take part in the Gold Rush challenge. The catch? The losing pair would be packing their bags and leaving camp behind.

The latest episode saw the I'm A Celebrity all-star spin-off pick back up with the trial. Ultimately, Myleene Klass and Jordan Banjo came out on top, meaning Made in Chelsea star Toff and Coronation Street actor Andy were sent packing; neither have a chance of joining the I'm A Celebrity winners list now.

This result must not have been what many viewers were hoping for, as I'm a Celebrity fans have made their opinions about the pair's departure known online. It seems many of them were left feeling frustrated that they didn't have any say in who stayed and who went. 

One viewer wrote: "The whole point of an All Star series of a show is the public get to decide who their ultimate champion is. The fact that the show isn't live doomed it in the first place. Toff going out had made me stop watching. Well done @imacelebrity #ImACeleb".

Another chimed in: "Honestly can't watch I'm A Celeb without Toff and Andy, no public vote, filmed months ago, don't care who wins."

A third added: "I've been watching this on and off but now I've found out Andy and Toff have left I give up. Don't like the fact we can't vote as it isn't live and random people who are actually good have to leave, andy and toff deserved to stay in", and there were even more viewers besides who were gutted the pair had left.

Toff and Andy weren't even the only celebs to leave the camp that evening, as former supermodel Janice Dickinson was forced to leave the show behind after sustaining an injury in camp, much to the remaining celebs' dismay.
