It began as just another tense night in the jungle, but by the time viewers went to bed, one thing had become painfully clear: the first big moment of the season is about to explode — and former Lioness Alex Scott is standing right at the edge of the cliff.
The atmosphere shifted the moment the now-infamous Cocktails of Cruelty challenge unfolded. A trial that was meant to test courage quickly spiralled into a stomach-turning spectacle: cups filled with pig parts, fish organs, fermented horrors, even sheep brain. Campmates weren’t sipping… they were surviving.
And the fallout has been brutal.
Last night’s live trial sealed the fate of seven celebrities, pairing them off in a head-to-head race to chug their chosen opponent’s nightmare blend. Kelly Brook, Alex Scott, Martin Kemp, Jack Osbourne, Ruby Wax, Aitch and Angry Ginge — all of them fought, gagged, grimaced… and ultimately failed to beat the clock.
Now, their future lies entirely in the hands of the public.
alex scott’s unexpected plunge to the bottom
According to exclusive odds shared with ED! by Sportscasting, Alex Scott has become the frontrunner — not to win, but to walk out first.
A spokesperson for the company, Shane Orton, did not mince words.
“Alex Scott looks most at risk,” he revealed, placing her at 8/15 to be eliminated tonight.
For a woman celebrated for her strength, discipline, and national-treasure status in football, finding herself on the brink of being the first to go is a twist no one saw coming. Not fans, not pundits — and certainly not Alex herself.
The pressure is real, and the emotional weight is unmistakable.
the threat closing in
Kelly Brook follows closely behind as the second favourite to exit (5/2). Her fiery personality has fuelled debate among viewers — some frustrated, others entertained — but her bold presence in camp might give her the crucial edge Alex needs.
Martin Kemp, beloved music icon and camp dad figure, is also in danger with 6/1 odds. His gentle charm has won hearts, but as every series has proven, early eliminations don’t always align with public affection.
Further down the list, the mood shifts. Jack Osbourne and Ruby Wax — both at 12/1 — seem comfortably safe. Ruby’s dry chaos and Jack’s steady resilience have last-longer energy written all over them.
And then there are the true untouchables of the night: Aitch and Angry Ginge. Sitting at a distant 50/1, their place in camp appears rock solid… despite being disqualified entirely from the trial.
If anything, their misstep only made viewers like them more.
but the jungle has a habit of rewriting the script
Shane Orton issued a warning that has fans pacing.
“Viewers will have the final say, and tonight’s first exit could still produce a shock.”
Anyone who remembers I’m A Celeb history knows this: the first elimination is rarely predictable. Fan favourites crumble. Under-the-radar contestants rise. The jungle does not play by human logic.
In just a few hours, one campmate will hear the words no one wants to hear — and Alex Scott knows she is standing in the storm’s centre.
Will a last-minute surge of support save her?
Or will tonight become one of the most dramatic early exits the show has seen in years?
All eyes are on the jungle.
All votes matter.
And tonight, one life in camp is about to change forever.
