Fans of I’m A Celebrity South Africa think they already know how Wednesday’s episode will begin.
After yet another cliffhanger during a trial, the episode on Tuesday ended with Sinitta screaming in terror. Both she and Seann Walsh were tackling the latest trial, with perspex helmets placed over their heads.
They were at the mercy of their campmates who had to correctly guess the answer to a number of questions. Sinitta and Seann each represented a team and the loser would have snakes added to their headwear.
Sinitta screamed for the entire trial, disliking snakes. Each time the team she belonged to got the answer wrong, she let out a wail as she realised another snake would be added.
It reached a point at the end of the episode where Sinitta faced yet another snake being put into the helmet, and her high-pitch squealing was all fans could hear. Suddenly there was a cliffhanger before we could see the end result.

But fans think they already know how it ends, and what happens next once the episode on Wednesday picks back up from Tuesday’s cliffhanger. Fans are convinced there was a cliffhanger as right after that moment, Sinitta might quit the trial.
Taking to social media one fan said: “Sinitta is going to crack!” adding: “I reckon one more snake and Sinitta will freak out!” Another said: “I’m surprised Sinita didn’t wave the white flag Sean was very calm in comparison.”
A third fan said: “I definitely don’t think she’s going to survive until the very end of the trial!” A further comment read: “Felt like poor Sinitta’s screams were going to go on forever, not really sure what the point was in that trial.
“I reckon after yet another annoying cliffhanger, the next episode will start with her shouting the famous words I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here and ending the trial.” A final post read: “Yeah there’s no way she’s making it to the end of that challenge. They just need to put one more snake in there and she’s gone.”

It comes after fans complained about the ending to Tuesday’s episode, calling for the pre-recorded format to be axed entirely. Just as Gemma Collins and Craig Charles battled it out during their first trial in the spin-off series, the episode featured a cliffhanger twist that left fans fuming.
Gemma and Craig had just decided how much they were going to eat in the eating trial, battling it out for points for their team. It all came down to the final showdown, but as hosts Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly kicked it off, the show ended.
Featuring a cliffhanger and ending the episode before the trial had finished did not go down well with ITV viewers. As many slammed the decision and bosses, one viewer even called for the format of the spin-off series to be axed entirely.
With it being a pre-recorded series, filmed late last year, viewers have less involvement and it’s all a little different to the main series. Taking to social media to call out ITV for ending the episode too early, one fan said: “What a cruel way to end that.”
Another said: “No no no, it didn’t just end like that. Who do I’m celeb think they are. Love island?” A third post read: “WHAT THE F**K. Axe this pre-recorded format immediately WHAT DO YOU MEAN ending the episode on a cliffhanger in the MIDDLE OF A TRIAL?!”
A further post said: “YOU CANT JUST END IT LIKE THAT WHAT THE HELL.” One fan wrote: “NOOOOOOOO WHY END THERE,” as another said: “A cliffhanger. You’re ending it on a cliffhanger.”
