David Van Day is the ninth person to leave the jungle out of I'm A Celebrity.
That leaves Joe Swash, George Takei and Martina Navratalova to battle it out in the final.
The ex-Dollar frontman seemed gutted to go and told Ant and Dec: "Of course I'm disappointed to leave my friends there."
But did he really have any?
When asked whether he had a game plan he said: "Not particularly. I could only react after other people's actions. I couldn't make it up."
He admitted that Nicola was key for him staying in as long as he did because he wound her up so much: "[she] gave me loads of currency. She made it really easy for me."
In terms of who he wants to win he was very clear. It was Joe: "He's my king of the jungle and I think he'll win it."
It's definitely been an emotional ride for the finalists and for some it has been a life-changing experience. They told the Bush Telegraph what jungle life has really been like.
Mellow Martina
We always had tennis champ Martina Navratilova down as a bit of a hard nut, but actually she's quite squishy once you get past her tough exterior.
She admitted: "I cry at the drop of a hat...I'm a soft touch."
"I've had my moments in here, but these surroundings brings it out. You have extremes of emotions here because everyone's on the edge."
David Dares
David admits his entrance to the camp sent him over the edge. He was swooped up in a net and left to stay overnight in a jail, because the others refused to set him and Timmy free.
"It was a hell hole, I've never been in anything like this in my life. Terrifying start to my time here and I think it sent me over the edge for a bit."
He explains the reasons for being in a strop when he rocked up to the camp: "The celebrities in the camp could of set us free if they gave up a luxury item but they didn't. No wonder I had the hump when I turned up here."
His arrival signalled friction for the camp but out of it came a beautiful friendship between him and Timmy: "They made us feel like complete outsiders it was diabolical and they've all paid for it dearly."
" In spite of the doom and gloom Timmy and I stuck together and wrote our song Biff Baff Boff. But the day I won the bed on the bus was a great Van Day"
Indiana Joe
Joe has been so watchable and there's no doubt he's cemented himself as an all round good egg in the mind of the general public.
He told the Bush Telegraph that he got upset when he saw a video message from his mum: "It's the most emotional I've been for years."
His first day at the camp was definitely memorable: "My first memory of arriving in camp was that this was beautiful but I was voted to do the first trial which was the disgusting food. I didn't know if I was going to be able to do it."
Gorgeous George
Being a contestant on the show has had a profound affect on George Takei: "This has been the most memorable and unusual experience in my life, meeting those fascinating people and surviving the hardship. It's been a a life changing experience.
He spoke about what it was like seeing his loved ones on video and how his partner Brad was really looking forward to seeing him when he got out.
