SCARED Of The Dark viewers think they know who will win – as Chris Eubank dramatically quit the show.
Last night, fans of the Channel 4 show were in shock as the legendary boxer decided he’d had enough and pulled out of the programme.

Now fans are backing Chris McCausland to win the show
Boxer Chris, 56, was seen going on strike and refused to take part in challenges, embarking on an 11-hour silent protest.
The star moaned about other contestants before pulling out of a challenge halfway through, and making the decision to quit.
Now, fans think they have worked out who will win the show, after dubbing one celebrity the “best person by far”.
Comedian Chris McCausland, who is best known for acting as Rudi on CBeebies show Me Too! – called out the group on their language and behaviour as tension’s flared before the boxer’s walk-out.
The TV star, 45, who is blind, took it upon himself to defend the younger members of the Scared Of The Dark cast against the athlete’s words.
The comedian told Chris Eubank: “I want you to stop telling people how to behave and not be themselves.”
“Well sorry, I can’t…when someone behaves like a child, I have no choice but to actually direct them but this,” he tried to interject.
The Comedy Store star then interjected: “But this is people being themselves. You’re trying to trample on their spontaneity, they need to be allowed to be themselves.
“I’m saying to you sir that everybody feels slightly lectured, you talk to people like you’re boxing, you’re like jab jab jab.”
After the exchange, fans flooded Twitter to declare that comedian Chris was “already their winner”.
“What a f***ing man he is, the best person on the programme by far and so humble, definitely my winner,” one wrote.
Another chimed in: “I liked Chris McCausland before watching Scared of the Dark but this show is endearing him to me even more, my winner for sure.”
“My winner of Scared of the Dark is Chris McCausland, like him a sa comedian and like him as he says it,” a third added.
While a fourth said: “Chris McCausland is flipping fantastic!”
It comes after The Celeb Report revealed that Chris may have ruffled a few feathers during his time on the Channel 4 show.
“We didn’t know who was going to be in there – I think I knew everyone,” Donna Preston said.
“But with Chris Eubank, I was like ‘oh my god, it’s Chris Eubank, this is amazing’.
“But he shot me down. I think I was like ‘oh my f* god, absolute legend’ and he was like ‘absolutely not’.
“I think he just hated me from day one, but that’s okay, that’s okay, some people don’t like me.”
