Three tips and three eliminations took place in a single episode, a first in the history of Koh Lanta.

After Samuel's retirement following an injury, Diane, Estelle and Mathieu were eliminated following a poker stroke from Aubin.

It is not one, but four adventurers who left the adventure on Friday.

Following an Achilles tendon injury during a test from the previous show, Samuel, the sportsman from the northern tribe, had to abandon the adventure on medical advice.

"The doctor tried everything," assured presenter Denis Brogniart to his teammates before announcing the name of his replacement: Diane.

Former of the orange tribe (the West), she was eliminated during the immunity council of episode 3 following a master stroke from Estelle, the 47-year-old Norman.

On the spot, the dean had changed everything by taking out her immunity collar, found in extremis before the council.

Diane therefore returned to the adventure in place of Samuel, in the purple tribe (the North).

"Estelle, I don't think she will stay very long," she said, returning to the competition.

Diane, Estelle, Mathieu

Last arrival of the immunity test, the Northern team proceeded to the vote in the wake, on the beach.

The return was only short-lived for Diane who was eliminated unanimously by her teammates.

Finally, during a historic council that hosted two teams at the same time, the Oranges de l'Ouest voted in majority against Estelle (3 votes, against 2 for Jody) who, this time, did not manage to escape to elimination.

On the side of the southern tribe, however, nothing went as planned.

The blue team voted mostly against Aubin without suspecting that the latter had an immunity collar.

Second twist in two episodes: the young real estate agent led to the elimination of Mathieu, while the 31-year-old professional rider was considered one of the best candidates of this 21st season.

A turnaround experienced as "a betrayal" by the southern tribe.

While this season of Koh Lanta had integrated the novelty of distributing the candidates between four teams corresponding to the four regions of France, this originality will end in the next episode.

The four tribes will be redistributed to form only two teams.
