The latest Celebrity Big Brother showed the fallout of the triple eviction on Wednesday, with the remaining housemates celebrating making it to the final.
Patsy Palmer, Ella Rae Wise and Angellica Bell left the house on Tuesday, but the latest episode showed the moments leading up to their eviction, and it was someone else who ended up leaving viewers fuming.
Prior to the eviction, EastEnders actress Palmer, 52, was asked to lead a rejuvenation retreat for the housemates.
As well as ensuring her fellow celebrities were nicely relaxed, the actress told the housemates to air some of their frustrations, with many small clashes ironed out in the civil conversations.

However, it was clear comedian Donna Preston, 38, wasn't interested in fixing any tension between herself and presenter Bell, 49.
The pair had faced an awkward interaction after Preston scolded Bell for being too loud in the morning, and went on to nominate her for eviction.
As the two sat to discuss their issues, Preston commented: "I feel like you have been very off with me.
"The only thing that irked me was the clapping - if you had said that to me, I definitely wouldn't have got a pan and ladle out the next day and wacked it in everyone's faces."

"I didn't do the pan in everyone's face, it was sort of around, but I get it because it was loud," Bell replied.
She continued: "And if I knew it would really upset you, I wouldn't have done it.
"So I apologise if you took it the wrong way, it was just to lighten the mood.
"I have to respect that you had to take time to get over that because I thought you were upset with me yesterday, but we're cool today."
Seeming offended, Preston responded: "I absolutely wasn't upset yesterday."
"OK, neither was I," Bell assured her, to which the comedian responded: "It's not that deep honestly, it's all I have to say really."
However, Preston went on to continue complaining to the other housemates about Bell, with Coronation Street star Jack P Shepherd discussing the tense chat with Love Island star Chris Hughes.
The two pointed out that Preston had been overreacting despite the fact she kept saying the situation "isn't deep".
Viewers soon tired of Preston's complaints, and many took to X to vent their frustrations with her.
"Donna playing to the cameras.... Not funny and very annoying #cbb," one wrote.
"Maybe controversial but I actually think Donna is playing a game of her own. Think about the reasons she gives when nominating. They are lame. Shes coasting at its best to reach the end. Playing the game #CBBUK #CBBLive #CBB," a second theorised.
A third added: "I only want Jack or JoJo to win! Wouldn’t mind Chris or Chesney, but if Danny or Donna win idgi?! Sometimes they’re funny but they’re both so two faced! #cbb #CBBUK."
"Hated the way Donna spoke to Angelica during the meditation session. Donna acts as if she is chill and trying to be comedic but really it comes of as rude! 'It’s not that deep,' well you’re acting p***ed off so it obviously is. #cbbuk #cbb," another shared.
"Donna is pretending!! Her comedy act wasn't funny from the start & now she's starting to irritate me big time #CBB #CBBUK," someone else admitted.
"This has made me torn as I find Donna funny and thought she had a dry humour, but now I'm wondering if she's just a bit rude and stuff. if you were to put yourself in [Angellica's] shoes and she was singing this around the house after the talk how would we take it. is it all banter or is it borderline bullying?" someone else wondered.
Another simply stated: "Donna showing her true colours."
However, others were more defensive of the comedian, with another fan adding: "I want Donna to win, but honestly, I'd be okay with anyone else taking the crown, except for JoJo or Chris!" (sic)
