Thursday night saw Bradley Riches become the seventh celebrity to be evicted in a shocking and brutal twist.
The latest episode saw the housemates being treated to a surprise one-minute visit from a loved one in the secret rendezvous spot, while their fellow housemates watched from the lounge.
Louis was surprised by 80s icon Sinitta, who berated him for his snide comments in the house, while Nikita burst into tears upon seeing his girlfriend and Fern got to see her youngest daughter.
However, when it came to Bradley’s turn, he was instead greeted by host AJ Odudu, who broke the news that he was going home, after receiving the least amount of public votes.
The finalists of Celebrity Big Brother have been revealed as David Potts, Nikita Kuzmin , Louis Walsh , Fern Britton and Colson Smith

The actor, 22, was able to go back to the house one final time to say his goodbyes, with his fellow housemates left stunned and upset by the backdoor eviction.
Speaking in the diary room, Bradley – who opened up about his diagnosis with autism while on the show – gushed that he had had the ‘best time’.
He said: ‘I feel like I had the absolute best time, I’m so grateful I made so many amazing friends and for me to do this, I felt like I was scared to do it and I’ve done it and I’m so happy and I’m so grateful and I’ve just had the best time so thank you Big Brother.’
Bradley becomes the latest star to be booted out, following Zeze Millz, Marisha Wallace, Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu, Levi Roots, Lauren Simon and Gary Goldsmith.
While Sharon Osbourne also departed the house after serving eight days as the first Celebrity Big Brother lodger.
With the final five revealed at last, bookies have placed their bets on Former X Factor judge Louis, 71, taking the crown.
The Irish star has caused plenty of controversy while in the house, with his cruel remarks on a host of famous names, including Simon Cowell, Jedward and Ronan Keating.
But it seems the public may be appreciating his honesty and tendency to bring the drama as he is now backed to go all the way.

The latest odds from BetVictor Casino have him as 2/1 to win, after bookie previously singled out Strictly’s Nikita as the favourite.
A BetVictor spokesperson said: ‘The start of the final week in the Celebrity Big Brother house has seen a new housemate snatch the favourite tag ahead of Friday’s concluding episode, with Louis Walsh our new frontrunner to win the series.
‘Walsh was as high as 33/1 in the outright winner market last week but has been backed all the way into 2/1 as of Monday afternoon, making him the narrow favourite ahead of Nikita Kuzmin (11/5).
‘Having both had a turn as favourite over the last week, Colton Smith and David Potts have slipped back to third and fourth favourite respectively, with Coronation Street actor Colton 7/2 and Ibiza Weekender star David on 8/1.’
