I'm A Celeb elimination: Nick Pickard is fourth star to be voted out

I’m A Celebrity elimination results: Nick Pickard is the fourth campmate to be voted out after losing to Josie Gibson in shock bottom two

Nick Pickard became the fourth campmate to be eliminated from the Australian jungle in Wednesday’s episode of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!.

The Hollyoaks actor, 48, lost out to Josie Gibson in the public vote after they both unexpectedly came in the bottom two in the latest elimination.

Fans were left completely shocked at Nick’s departure as they gushed over the ‘lovely’ star and also shared their surprise that Josie ranked in the bottom two. 

Fred Sirieix became the third star to be voted out the camp on Tuesday, after the exits of Nella Rose and Frankie Dettori in the first two eliminations.

Jamie Lynn Spears and Grace Dent both previously exited the jungle after separately quitting on medical grounds, with just six campmates now remaining.

After Nick was the fourth star to be voted out, fans took to X – formerly known as Twitter – to admit they were ‘gutted’ that he had been booted out of the camp.

One wrote: ‘Gutted that Nick has gone,’ and another said: ‘If it was another year Nick would have won, what a lovely man.’

A third penned: ‘Ohhh I liked Nick. Gutted,’ while a fourth tweeted: ‘Nick hadn’t left, it’s a dream and I want to wake up now.’

A fifth said: ‘Nick deserved better,’ and another commented: ‘Bye Nick but I’m happy it’s not Josie.’

One admitted: ‘So glad Josie is still there,’ while another vowed: ‘I’m gonna start voting for Josie now,’ after she ended up in the bottom two.

Some fans also shared their disbelief that Nick had been voted out before controversial politician and former UKIP leader Nigel Farage. 

Despite fans’ unhappy reactions to his exit, Nick – known for playing Tony Hutchinson on Hollyoaks – didn’t seem upset as he joined Ant and Dec to look back on his jungle journey.

Nick grinned as he arrived to speak to the co-hosts and admitted he was happy to be leaving because he felt like his time on the show had come to an end.

He revealed it was his family who persuaded him to go on the ITV show as he said he was pleased to have finally taken part after more than 20 years on Hollyoaks. 

‘I’ve never been asked before, it was an honour to be asked… it was great, it was so much fun,’ he gushed.

Nick also addressed recent drama which saw former camp chef Fred criticise Josie’s cooking skills as he struggled to let go of control in the kitchen. 

‘[Fred] gave Josie a little bit of a rough time, not in a bad way but he’s just very particular,’ Nick said of the famous cooking rows.

Nick had previously shared his apprehension about cooking for Fred after taking over from Josie as chef alongside Sam Thompson following the kitchen arguments.

Chatting to Ant and Dec, Nick finally told how he is rooting for Made In Chelsea’s Sam to win the 2023 series as he heaped praise on his campmate and co-chef.

‘[Sam] deserves it, well they all deserve it, but he does and I think he really wants to… he’s the lifeblood of that camp,’ Nick said.

Nick is the fourth campmate to have backed Sam as the 2023 King of the Jungle, as all three previously eliminated campmates also backed the TV personality for the crown.

With just days to go until Sunday’s final, Fred rooted for fan favourite Sam to win upon his exit, while jockey Frankie admitted he too thinks the star will soar to victory.

YouTuber Nella also said upon her departure: ‘I think Sam should be King of the Jungle, he has wanted to do this since he was a kid.’

After showing his support for Sam, Nick walked across the iconic I’m A Celebrity bridge, where he was sweetly greeted by his girlfriend Sarah Corrin.

Nick’s exit came just one day after First Dates star Fred became the third star to be voted out of the camp. 

Fred had a drama-filled time in camp after clashing with Nigel Farage over Brexit, rowing with Josie and being confronted by Nella in the ‘Dadgate’ row.

After the spate of drama, many viewers took to social media after Fred’s exit to admit they were pleased to see him go as they branded him as ‘bossy’. 

One said: ‘Not really surprising its Fred, his really let himself down with the way his been acting recently tho it has caused tension, drama and been entertaining which has been great.’ 

Another wrote: ‘Hallelujah Fred has gone!!! He thought he was everything in there….bossy as f**k!!!’ while a third tweeted: ‘ SOOOOO glad Fred has gone! Can’t be arsed to hear him any longer.’ 

A fourth penned: ‘ Fred could of easily been Top 3… Think he ruined it with the whole dinner gate!’ 

Another added: ‘I had Fred down as a finalist but I think last couple of shows he didn’t do himself any favours. I still like him.’ 

However, some viewers also jumped to his defence as they argued there were other campmates who deserved to be eliminated rather than Fred. 

One wrote: ‘Actually didn’t want Fred to go just yet. He’s just passionate,’ and a second said: ‘ Aww I’m acc sad Fred left.’ 

Another added: ‘Sad to see Fred leave the camp tbh. There are others who have provided a lot less to the show.’

It comes after Fred Sirieix became the third star to be voted out of the jungle after losing out to Danielle Harold in the public vote

Fred looked dismayed as it was announced that he would be the latest star to leave I’m A Celebrity 

After his eviction, Fred joined Ant and Dec to look back on his time in the jungle and spoke about his struggle to let go of control in the kitchen – which saw him branded by fans as ‘controlling’ and ‘misogynistic’.

The maître d’hôtel and professional chef previously clashed with Josie as he hit out at her cooking skills while struggling to let go of his former camp chef role.

Doubling down on his views after his elimination, Fred said: ‘[Josie] doesn’t know what she does in the kitchen, she makes it up as she goes along.’

‘You really need the calories, and you’ve got to find them whenever you can. I think we missed out on quiet a few meals [by not recycling ingredients],’ he added.

When asked why he didn’t get involved as much with Sam Thompson and Nick Pickard’s cooking, he said they were a ‘dream’ and there was ‘no need’ for him to do so.

Asked how he found the tricky challenges on the show, Fred insisted he had been vigorously training for his stint in the jungle and told how he found most of it ‘easy’. 

‘I found it quiet easy because I prepared myself mentally, I was really thinking… the challenges I found it quite easy actually because I was quite focused,’ he said.

‘The physical training helps you with the mental side of things, because it’s about the focus, and when you do that repeatedly, you get into that mindset and you keep going.’

When asked about his up-and-down relationship with Nigel Farage in the camp, Fred insisted their time together hadn’t swayed him on their political differences.

He said: ‘It was great in the camp because I’m a do-er and Nigel is a do-er… but there is a side of Nigel Farage that I won’t and will never connect with.’ 

The pair got into a fierce debate over Brexit in a recent episode which saw Fred accuse the former UKIP leader of ‘talking b*******’, but they also bonded over the cleanliness of the camp.

Upon his exit, Fred also spoke about how he tried to just live in the moment during his time on the show, rather than dwelling on missing his fiancée Fruitcake.

He said: ‘I was really living in the moment, I did not think about home, I did not think about work… I just ploughed through.’ 

Leaving the camp, Fred was then sweetly reunited with Fruitcake as she ran towards him and the pair shared a close embrace, before smiling on the bridge together.

Fred’s elimination came after fans accused him of ‘controlling’ behaviour in Tuesday’s episode as Sam and Nick took the reins as camp chefs.

Fred was originally camp chef and since having to relinquish his responsibility to others, he has become increasingly irate and been branded ‘controlling’ by viewers.

It even saw him become embroiled in a ‘sexism’ row after many watching accused him of being ‘misogynistic’ towards presenter Josie, 38, while she made dinner.

The chores were decided by them as follows: camp chefs: Sam and Nick, washing up: Tony Bellew and Marvin Humes, camp water and dunny: Fred and Marvin while Nigel and Fred were on camp maintenance.

Seeing their choices Sam reacted excitedly: ‘No way!’

In the Bush Telegraph Sam later said: ‘I’ll be like the clown in the kitchen so Nick can get on and do what he needs and I’ll distract Fred. 

‘But also, I’m incredibly nervous. I’m not a very good cook.’

Nigel then said in the Bush Telegraph: ‘I think that Nick is going to be on the front line of this with Sam as sous chef. What will be interesting is to watch how Fred comments on Sam’s food preparation.’ 

Nick in Bush Telegraph later commented: ‘I do like a bit of cooking, but after the exploits of the last couple of evenings of Fred and Josie, I’m a little bit nervous. 

‘Fred’s bound to start barking at us now. Hopefully he’ll give us a bit of guidance and then leave us alone.’

Fred was accused of ‘misogyny’ in recent episodes after his behaviour towards his female co-stars left fans branding him ‘unbearable’.

I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! continues Thursday at 9pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
