The final episode of I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here has pulled in 858,000 viewers as fans tuned in to watch Brendan Fevola take the crown.

The winner's announcement episode was the sixth most watched show of the night, while the first part of the finale night had 719,000 viewers as the eighth most watched.

The episode saw former AFL player Brendan Fevola win the show, ahead of runner-up rugby league legend Paul “Chief” Harragon. Fevola donated half of his $100,000 winnings to Harragon's charity, The Mark Hughes Foundation.

Ten noted that given the show is aired live, it overran by 11 minutes which was not recorded by OzTam. It therefore says the ratings reached 1.06 million capital city viewers for the winners announcement, peaking at 1.22 million.

However, the top watched show of the night was Seven's My Kitchen Rules which picked up 1.4 million viewers. ABC's Doc Martin followed on with 1.04 million viewers.

Ten's The People v. OJ Simpson had 605,000 viewers and just missed out on the top 10, pulling in at the 11th most watched show of the night.

Seven won the night on 31.5% audience share followed by Nine on 25.5%. Ten had 18.4% audience share, ABC had 17.7% audience share and SBS had 7.0% audience share.
