That's one prediction he didn't want to get right: Eric Bristow misses out on the I'm A Celebrity final as he's voted out of the jungle

He managed to guess correctly who would be voted out of the I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! jungle each day.

But Eric Bristow was left eating his own words when he correctly predicted he would be the next for the chop on Thursday night's show.

The legendary darts player has now been evicted from the programme, meaning he just misses out on the final.

And the sports man was happy to admit he was gutted to have got so close to the final day.

The controversial star became the latest casualty by being evicted from the show on Thursday night.

Eric was placed in the bottom two alongside EastEnders actress Charlie Brooks when Ant and Dec came to tell them their fates.

But he was inevitably told it would be him who would be walking across the bridge a day before the king or queen is announced.

Bristow told Ant and Dec after he'd said his goodbyes to Charlie Brooks, David Haye and Ashley Roberts: 'It's great I'm out... but I would have liked to make the last three.'

But he then reflected on it and added: 'I think it's right the three young'uns are there, it's worked out well.'

And it was certainly a busy last day for Eric in the camp.

He was partnered up with Pussycat Doll Ashley after they were selected for the Dingo Dollar Challenge which saw the pair messing about in a huge pile of straw that hid keys and a few little chocolates scattered around.

The keys would open boxes that contained chocolates and dollars and they had to make $100 in order to shop at the Outback Shack.

A cheeky Ashley said: 'I don’t go jumping in haystacks that often so this is going to be ‘popping my cherry’ in that department but I’m super stoked to see how it goes.'

They worked either side of the huge straw bales and found the keys - Ashley opened the boxes finding a few dollars at a time and then some chocolate treats which Eric let her eat . 

Eric started singing the Wurzels hit ‘Combine Harvester’ which Ashley said she didn’t recognise as it was before her time.

Still smiling: He happily walked towards Ant and Dec ready for his evictee interview
