Celebrity Big Brother viewers outraged as housemates ignore Austin Armacost’s departure…and he fails to get a Best Bits

Host Emma Willis also made a mistake by saying he had a best bits VT...when he didn't

CELEBRITY Big Brother viewers have shared their outrage after Austin Armacost was given an underwhelming send off.

The star became the second housemate to be evicted in a cruel twist which saw Big Brother force the celebrities to choose who was the "dullest".

The bombshell came after host Emma Willis also introduced three new housemates, Chloe Ferry, Kim Woodburn and Jessica Cunningham.

In all the drama, Austin's final seconds in the house were overshadowed by their arrival, with the housemates rushing to greet them, while Austin forlornly made his way up the stairs in the garden and headed out the side door with barely second glance from the others.

The moment didn't pass viewers by, as they took to Twitter in their droves to pass comment.

A third added: "Austin got treated so badly and nobody even wanted him to go! Big Brother can be cruel".
