Celebrity Big Brother bosses were left panicking after the results of a secret eviction were accidentally 'leaked' to a live studio audience.
The reality series is getting to the pointy end, with just six famous faces left in the house ahead of Friday night's final.
They are former X Factor judge Louis Walsh, Strictly professional dancer Nikita Kuzmin, former This Morning host Fern Britton, reality star David Potts, Heartstopper star Bradley Riches and Coronation Street's Bradley Riches.
This week West End star Marisha Wallace and YouTube star ZeZe Mills were sent packing in a double eviction, but viewers were confused on Wednesday night when host AJ Odudu revealed someone else was now gone too.
The night before she and co-host Will Best had shared another eviction would be taking place before the finale.
However, the next night nothing was shown, leading many people uncertain of whether it was going ahead.
But in the opening seconds of Late & Live the next night, AJ then revealed that they would be using the show to speculate on who had gone, with the eviction already having taken place.
She then said the footage would be shown the following night, on Thursday.
'Earlier today Big Brother unleashed a surprise eviction on the housemates and one more celebrity has already left the Big Brother house,' she said.
After sharing the news the evicted housemate was 'already in hiding', she then said viewers would have to wait another day to find out who 'had fallen at the last hurdle'.
The celebrity left through the diary room and missed out on their big exit in front of the live audience.
In a bid to keep the result under wraps until it airs tonight producers cancelled the live feed and obscured the window to the gallery in the Late and Live studio.
However it's now been reported they were left worried last night after crew working on the spin-off removed the blackout whilst some of the audience were still in the studio.
In an attempt to keep the eviction result from leaking members of the audience were 'forced' to sign non-disclosure agreements (NDAs), as reported by The Sun.
A source told the publication that bosses had made sure the gallery, which is visible in the Late and Live studio, was covered up so the audience and fans at home couldn't watch the monitors and guess the result.
'But afterAJ Oduduwrapped the episode the crew immediately started to remove the blackout sticker, making the gallery once again visible and eagle-eyed fans got glimpse of the live feed,' they said.
'While the audience thought it was amusing bosses held them back and forced them to sign NDAs, preventing them from revealing the result – or even mentioning the mishap.'
Soon after finding out they'd have to wait for the result, viewers made it clear they were unhappy.
'Nobody likes these secret backdoor evictions. Even if you do a backdoor, it should be live. Very unfair on viewers and the evicted housemate. What's even the point?' one person posted on X.
'ITV have got it wrong. The back door eviction should be shown live for the shock effect #cbbuk turn back time,' someone else shared.
Another added: 'Swear they said about shock eviction tonight?! Late & Live just said they're already out and it'll be revealed tomorrow. We've been bamboozled by CBB.'
Others said they were 'gutted' after eagerly tuning in to the show to see who was leaving.
So far, Zeze, Marisha, Lauren Simon, Ekin-Su Clclolu, Gary Goldsmith and Levi Roots have all left the house, with Sharon Osbourne also leaving after her time as a lodger came to an end.

Celebrity Big Brother continues tonight at 9pm on ITV1.
