The I'm A Celebrity All Stars finale makes history tonight as viewers take control of the result for the first time.

ITV's two-part live broadcast marks a major shift from previous All Stars formats, where campmates themselves decided eliminations and the winner.

The champion will receive £100,000 to donate to their chosen charity.

Hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly will front the live show in front of a studio audience.

Despite the historic format change, the finale has been overshadowed by backlash over the remaining contestants.

Social media users have branded the all-male lineup of Adam Thomas, Craig Charles, Mo Farah and Harry Redknapp as the "worst in show's history".

On X, viewers vented frustration, with one writing: "Great series ruined by a s*** final 4".

Another added: "Never been such a boring final 4."

Others claimed they had been "robbed" of a more diverse finale, arguing the last four should have included Ashley Roberts, Scarlett Moffatt and Gemma Collins.

One viewer posted: "This is the worst final 4 of all time. Just give it to Adam tonight, I can't be bothered with a whole 2 hour live show in London for THIS."

"I don't want any of these contestants to win," complained another.

Ms Moffatt’s exit as the final female contestant intensified calls for a public vote.

The former Gogglebox star broke down in tears after finishing last in the final Bushtucker Trial, when Ant and Dec revealed she was furthest from the correct total.

In a pointed moment, she appeared to decline to hug any of the remaining male campmates before leaving.

Despite missing out on the final, Moffatt backed Mo Farah to win.

"Even if I'd got into the final, I'd have said to people, 'If you were thinking of voting for me, you should vote for Mo," she said.

"Nobody deserves it as much as him. I really do hope he wins."

The series has also been clouded by controversy, including bullying allegations involving David Haye.

The former boxer repeatedly clashed with Mr Thomas, prompting criticism from Ant and Dec on the show’s podcast.

"It's not a nice watch. He just kind of picks and picks at them," Ant said.

Dec added: "It's kind of crossed the line from banter. I don't find it comfortable to watch."

Mr Thomas, 37, who battled arthritis during filming, later said Mr Haye had "broke me in there" and "pushed me to my limits."

The pro boxer was also accused of fat-shaming Ms Collins and sparked backlash over comments about women’s appearances.

Tonight’s finale could bring further drama as Jimmy Bullard reunites with Mr Thomas following their explosive row.

The former footballer quit during a Bushtucker Trial, leaving Mr Thomas furious as he shouted: "Jimmy, are you f****** taking the p**s? I am in there getting covered in f****** ants."

Mr Bullard replied: "Woah, calm down. That's pathetic."

The pair are said to remain on non-speaking terms, though Ant and Dec confirmed Mr Bullard will attend the finale.

Sources claim he is ready to give his version of events live on air.

"Jimmy knows the truth about what happened. He's ready to tell his story," an insider said, describing it as "the ultimate sweet revenge."
