It came after a ‘brutal’ task caused chaos.
Fans of Big Brother were left raging as they claim some housemates made the ‘worst choice ever’ with a killer nomination. It comes as the housemates were confronted with the final power game in their teams.
Rob chose Yasmin, Omar and Rhianna to represent the red team. Meanwhile, Samuel picked Rochelle, Catrin and himself to play on behalf of the blue team.
Housemates had to take it in turns to place a domino in a line on a beam. Once all 60 dominos were lined up, one player knocked down the first domino to trigger a run and win the game.
However, after having to restart, Yasmin said: “We’re actually f**ked.” Rihanna was displeased with Omar’s attempt at encouraging comments and told him: “Shut up Omar. Just one second, please.”
Back in the living area, Rob commented: “Please don’t start bickering.” Frankie said: “We’ve got a civil war going on now, falling apart.”
The blue team thought they had victory in their grasp but had to start the whole thing again. At one point, Sam quipped: “Guys are showing your true colours in this game.”
To which Yasmin responded: “Sam, is that not the game? It’s the rules.” And Catrin noted: “No, I think you’re just being quite bitter with it. Quite nasty, I’ll be honest.”
Amid rising tensions, Yasmin knocked over the other team’s dominos which meant that her team was disqualified and the blue team was named winner. The entire group was called to the Task Room and Big Brother revealed the prize.
He said: “Congratulations, you have won today’s power game… but you have not won power of the House. You have won the power of the vote… you are now in possession of a killer nomination.”
Harry replied: “That’s crazy.” Big Brother instructed: “You must now select one housemate from the opposite team to receive this killer nomination. Whichever housemate you select will automatically face the public vote this Friday.”
Lynx quickly tried to put Rob up for eviction again, repeating previous reasons for nomination about his singing. Omar was suggested by Samuel and Catrin because of comments he made to Yasmin and Rihanna during the dominos challenge.
The house seemed to descend into chaos as the blue team struggled to come to a decision. Ultimately Yasmin was chosen.
It did not take long for fans watching along at home to share their feelings about it. One posted on social media: “Worst possible outcome. Not our Yasmin.” While another replied: “How’s that happened? Like the worst choice.” Someone else commented: “This killer nomination has actually ruined my mood.”
Others demanded that Omar be nominated for eviction later in the week after his recent behaviour. This included his conversation with Samuel as he confronted him for calling his behaviour as ‘classeless’.
One person said: “I genuinely don’t think Omar knows what classless means… that whole conversation was embarrassing. I wish Sam had the confidence to challenge him.”
A viewer agreed: “Actually don’t think I can watch anymore till Omar is out. I feel like I’m losing the plot because he’s moving around like that and they’re all just saying he’s a sweet misunderstood little superstar.”
Big Brother continues tomorrow at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.

I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly have been at the helm of the ITV reality show since it first launched in 2002, and over the years they have had their fair share of campmates who have caused them frustration

The next instalment of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! (Series 26) is just around the corner, and although ITV is yet to officially announce the full line-up, a number of details about the schedule and strongly rumoured contestants have already emerged.
The series has reportedly been affected by a minor scheduling change this year. While the programme traditionally kicks off on a Sunday evening, ITV’s coverage of the UEFA Nations League clash between England and Spain on Sunday, 15 November has forced a reshuffle. Consequently, the new series is widely expected to launch on Monday, 16 November 2026.
As ever, Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly will be returning to the Australian jungle to front the main three-week reality show. With Dec celebrating his 51st birthday today (Friday, 25 September), we’ve decided to revisit some of the previous contestants who rubbed hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly up the wrong way.
While Ant and Dec typically maintain a light-hearted and professional approach with contestants on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! , they’ve occasionally revealed some candid opinions about those they deemed troublesome or underwhelming. Though the presenting duo seldom single out individuals as their “worst” on a personal level, certain campmates have left their mark for entirely the wrong reasons.
Katie Hopkins (2007)
Ant branded media personality Katie Hopkins as one of his ‘least favourite’ because she “didn’t really shine” and left minimal impact during her stint on the programme. Katie, 44, gained notoriety on The Apprentice in 2007 before featuring in that year’s series of I’m A Celebrity.
Ant, 43, went on to explain why audiences barely saw her on their screens. He told The Sun: “Katie Hopkins was in I’m A Celebrity but you wouldn’t really remember her doing it, as she didn’t really shine.”
Matt Hancock (2022)
From the second former Health Secretary Matt Hancock was announced, the presenters anticipated “uneasy tensions”. Fans also claimed they showed “favouritism” by being warmer towards other contestants while maintaining a conspicuous distance from Hancock during trials.
The hosting pair also wielded their signature humour to land subtle digs at Hancock throughout the series. During one task, Ant mocked Hancock for being a “typical politician who wouldn’t stop talking” as he provided running commentary on every element of the trial to his partner.
After Hancock performed a few lines of Ed Sheeran’s “Perfect,” Dec joked that the singer would be “gutted” to discover Hancock was a fan.
The duo also displayed genuine annoyance when Hancock allowed the camp’s rice to burn, with Ant noting it had been Hancock’s job to monitor it, stating it would make him “very angry” if he were in the camp. After the programme, Dec revealed to HuffPost UK it was “very, very difficult” to remain impartial, considering everyone nationwide, presenters included, had been affected by Hancock’s decisions throughout the pandemic.
He also acknowledged that critics who questioned whether a serving MP should feature on the show had an argument with “some validity”. Ant disclosed that while they tease everyone on the programme, they made every attempt to handle Hancock like any other contestant once he arrived in the jungle, allowing him the opportunity to share his own narrative.
Dean McCullough (2024)
The relationship between Ant and Dec and radio presenter Dean McCullough throughout the 2024 series of I’m A Celebrity was marked by apparent exasperation that steadily transformed into “tough love” and ultimate commendation.
During the early stages of the series, Ant was visibly annoyed by Dean’s efforts in the Bushtucker Trials, especially after Dean pulled out prematurely from both the “Sinister Sarcophagus” and “Drown in the Dumps” challenges.
The host subsequently confessed on companion show Unpacked that he felt “unprofessional” for letting his frustration become visible on screen, admitting he was “angry” because he thought the trials Dean quit were “doable”.
Ant and Dec eventually gazed straight into the camera to urge viewers to cease voting for Dean, noting it was “good to see other faces” and that witnessing the same contestant repeatedly struggle was becoming “boring”. Ant also playfully stated he would “never” follow Dean on Instagram.
Following Dean’s departure from the jungle, the hosts made it clear their no-nonsense strategy was intended to push him towards better performances.
During his post-exit interview, Ant told Dean: “I was so angry at you for calling ‘I’m A Celebrity’… then that tough love kind of got you through”.
Ant went on to commend Dean’s performance in the “flying challenge,” calling him “brilliant” and expressing pride in how Dean concluded his jungle journey.
Kelly Brook (2025)
Ant and Decare reported to have a long-running “feud” with Kelly Brook dating back to her brief appearance on Britain’s Got Talent. The tension stems from 2009, when Kelly Brook was drafted in as a fourth judge on Britain’s Got Talent (BGT) but was axed after just two days of filming.
In their autobiography Ooh! What a Lovely Pair, Dec recalled trying to reassure a nervous Kelly on her opening day. When he suggested the show would be fun, she allegedly replied, “And what do you do on the show?”
Ant and Dec were reportedly annoyed that Simon Cowell had brought in a fourth judge without consulting them. Dec wrote they couldn’t find a “good reason” why she was on the panel.
The presenters addressed their long-rumoured dispute with Kelly during the 2025 series of I’m A Celeb, chiefly by poking fun at it on the spin-off show Unpacked. While chatting about the campmates’ cooking prowess, Ant quipped that every dish they’d rustled up appeared “rancid”.
When it was pointed out that Kelly Brook and Martin Kemp were handling kitchen duties, Dec cheekily questioned Ant, “What’s your problem with Kelly Brook?”
Ant quickly fired back, “Don’t you start! I don’t have a problem with Kelly Brook, thank you!”
Despite their complicated past, the presenting duo remained thoroughly professional and polite throughout their on-air interactions, including Kelly’s post-elimination chat.
‘Worst’ season
Ant and Dec officially branded the 2022 contestants the “worst ever group” following their woeful performance in trials across the entire run.
Former Health Secretary Matt Hancock MP and comedian Seann Walsh subsequently entered as latecomers.
During a live Instagram session called Jungle Club, Ant and Dec didn’t hold back after the stars consistently flopped at Kev’s Deals on Wheels trials.
Dec told followers: “I think they’re officially the worst at the challenges,” while Ant agreed, branding them the “worst ever!” Ant went further still, labelling the 2022 stars a “bunch of idiots” after they botched 7 out of 10 questions. One moment that particularly irked the presenters was when the campmates failed to correctly name how many studio albums Adele has put out.
Ant also criticised their survival abilities early on in the series, calling them “helpless”.
Strikingly, while the presenters grew frustrated with their challenge performances, they’d shown tremendous excitement when the lineup was first announced, with their reaction video showing them shouting “Yes!” and “Oh he’s going to cry!” upon initially seeing the cast list.
What celebs are rumoured to be taking part in I’m A Celebrity this year?
The most prominent celebrities rumoured to be entering the Australian jungle for I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! 2026 include former footballer and pundit Wayne Rooney, singer Jesy Nelson, and Kaiser Chiefs star Ricky Wilson.
Other names who have been mentioned include Gavin & Stacey star Joanna Page and Love Island’s Chloe Burrows.
Rumours have also circulated that ITV bosses have put Jeremy Clarkson at the top of their dream casting list.
While ITV typically holds off on making official announcements until closer to the November launch date, several high-profile names are reportedly in advanced negotiations.
Organisers in Japan say they had ‘neither the manpower nor the budget’ to deal with the accommodation shortage.
Published On 14 Sep 202614 Sep 2026
Accommodation at the Asian Games, which start this week in Japan, is the “worst ever”, say South Korean officials, warning of “a serious shortage” of rooms.
Beds in shipping container-style huts are too short for players to stretch out, the South Korean basketball chief said on Monday, while officials from the Philippines resorted to Airbnb.

There is no dedicated athletes’ village for the games, with organisers instead relying on a cruise ship, temporary wooden cabins and hotels to cut costs.
The games in the city of Nagoya in Aichi prefecture officially open on Saturday, but football and basketball are already under way.
Jung Jae-yong, vice president of the Korea Basketball Association (KBA), expressed his displeasure with the cabins where the men’s basketball team is staying.
“Based on my experience, this is the worst it has ever been,” he said.
“Athletes who are over two metres tall cannot even stretch their legs out on the beds. It’s unreasonable.”
Byeon Jun-hyeong, from the basketball team, posted a video on social media showing a leaking sink and a soaked floor in his hut.
“Please help us,” he posted.
The huts are set to be home to 2,000 athletes and officials over the more than two weeks of the games.
Worried about their athletes, Indian sports officials built replicas of cabins to help them get used to the games’ accommodation.
KBA’s Jung accused organisers of failing to respond to South Korea’s concerns.
“The organisers have still not said anything,” he said.
“We are very concerned and discussing extensively with the Korean Sport and Olympic Committee what to do about this.”
Hundreds of athletes were briefly evacuated from their accommodation last week as record rainfall lashed Nagoya.
More rain has been forecast in the coming days.

‘Serious shortage’ of accommodation
More than 17,000 athletes and officials are expected at the games — a bigger number than the Olympics.
Organisers were initially expecting 15,000 and argued last month that they had “neither the manpower nor the budget” to deal with ballooning numbers.
The Olympic Council of Asia later said everyone would get a place to stay.
Star cricketers have voiced fears about a lack of top-notch hotels.
A Korean Sport & Olympic Committee (KSOC) official agreed that problems persist with the games just days away.
“At the moment, there is a serious shortage of accommodation not only for the entire South Korean delegation to the Asian Games, but for delegations from around the world in the Aichi-Nagoya area,” the official said.
“We are doing everything we can to resolve the issue and ensure there are no such problems.”
Philippine Olympic Committee president Abraham Tolentino said all athletes from his country had been given a room. However, “some officials, like coaches, were moved to different hotels and Airbnb”.
The Italian cruise ship Costa Serena is due to arrive in Nagoya on Tuesday. Between 4,000 and 5,000 athletes will stay on the vessel.
The rest will be accommodated in hotels, including in Tokyo, where swimming, diving and equestrian events will take place.
