Wow.

We're really here.

19 celebrities arrived to play

the ultimate m*rder mystery

This is life or death, isn't it?

..all in the hope of winning

up to a £100,000

for their chosen charity.

What's happening?

Something is afoot.

SCREAMING

But they quickly learnt

that in this game

Oh, God. Oh, no,

they're all our names.

..there is no special treatment.

Oh, God, it's disgusting.

I have a Shield, I have a Shield.

Got a Shield. Shield!

Shield!

Three Traitors were chosen

What am I going to do?

..and an epic first mission

SHE SQUEALS

I've locked it in

and I didn't mean to.

..put players in the firing line.

ALL CHEER

Clare pulling that lever is exactly

what a Traitor would do.

Suspicions intensified

I am suspicious of Kate

a little bit.

With her Shield,

I don't think she ever, like,

really had it out on show that much.

No, she didn't. She didn't.

Niko, I think.

There's something about the way

he looked at everybody, but then

He was looking quite intensely.

He was looking tense.

..and the Traitors

took on a treacherous task.

"Tonight you must

m*rder in plain sight."

"Rub your hands with

the poisoned pollen"

"..and touch the face of the

Faithful you want to m*rder."

Oh, God.

But who will be the first

to be m*rder*d?

This is The Celebrity Traitors.

♪ Ooh, ooh

♪ It happens in the shadows

♪ No-one has to know ♪

Tonight, they will choose who

they're going to k*ll,

made more difficult by

today's great effort. Yeah.

I've got this poisoned pollen

on my hands

but I don't know who to m*rder.

It's not going to be easy.

HE SIGHS

Ooh, 'ello.

Does anyone want another cuppa?

Oh, I might grab one in a minute,

actually. I might.

I'm going to come for a cuppa.

Come and have a cuppa. Bye.

SHE LAUGHS

I don't trust any of them.

No, me neither.

THEY LAUGH

Oh, my God.

I definitely trust you.

Well, I trust you.

♪ There's something

in the shadows ♪

Clare is the biggest threat,

cos she's one of the moremost

intelligent, probably.

Yeah.

I'm really up against the clock.

How am I going to touch

someone's face?

I'm just going to

hand out my desserts.

I'm going to go to the firepit.

Did he get that thing?

Oh, God, he's out there.

Why's he out there?

Now, this is nice.

Guys, look what I made us -

a little

Oh, it's Oh, my God.

There's French Oh, thanks.

Lovely warmth.

Yes. And again.

Alan tipped me the wink.

I might have to talk to him

about keeping it on the lowdown.

I'm not sure who he's k*lled yet,

but either way, the deed is done.

Look at that. I've got a button

on top of a marshmallow.

Who would have thought of

such a delicacy?

♪ There's something

in the shadows ♪

BELL TOLLS

Off I go, my darlings.

Night-night, Stephen.

And let me pray that I will

see you all in the morning.

Yes.

I'm telling youYeah.

Me - Faithful.

Me too. Genuine?

Yeah! Oh, God, it's too much.

Erm, I hope I'll see you tomorrow.

Yeah. I hope I see you, too.

Oh. It's been beautiful tonight.

I hope they don't k*ll me. Yes.

Night-night, my love.

I hope I see you tomorrow.

Lots of love, bye-bye.

Night, darling.

If I die tonight Oh!

..goodbye.

I adore you all.

Paloma Faith, I love you.

♪ There's something

in the shadows ♪

With the Faithful departed,

unaware that a m*rder

in plain sight has taken place,

it's time for the Traitors to meet

to reflect on their first k*ll.

♪ You're no good, you're no good

You're no good

♪ Baby, you're no good ♪

Oh, I am a bad person.

Well, what a day.

You're not a bad person,

you're a good Traitor.

Who was it?

I'm just going to hand

out my desserts.

We'llwe'll follow behind.

Oh, lovely.

We'll come soon.

Do you like what I made? They're

beautiful. I made this earlier.

They look French.

ALAN CHUCKLES

You've got a bit of hair

in your face.

OK. There you are, there you go.

It's gone. Fabulous, darling.

Oh, no. Oh, my God.

Lovely Paloma Faith.

I feel awful.

But I didn't know what else to do.

I've gone and m*rder*d

one of my best friends.

I thought, "Shall I do it?

Cos I really like her."

But I thought, there's no I'm

never going to get the opportunity.

It broke my heart.

You've got to toughen up.

I don't want to hear any more of

this broken-heart nonsense.

I know, I know.

What are you? What are you?

I'm a Traitor.

What are you? Traitor.

We've got to start enjoying this.

I know. Yeah, we do.

It's going to be hard seeing

Paloma's face at breakfast tomorrow,

but Alan has ex*cuted

that perfectly.

One Faithful down.

Well done.

The deed is done.

Last night, the Traitors m*rder*d

Paloma in plain sight.

However, unbeknownst

to the Faithful,

everyone will turn up

to breakfast,

as the poisonous pollen

is yet to take its deadly effect.

♪ Oh, sinnerman

Where you gonna run to?

♪ Sinnerman

Where you gonna run to? ♪

Oh, wow!

Are we the first?

We're the first ones.

Oh, I have survived.

This is an incredible feeling.

I did not sleep well last night

cos I thought I might get k*lled.

Now I can take a deep sigh of relief

and just enjoy the day

and study everyone.

Joe and I had shields, but you

guys must be feeling amazing.

Oh, God, yeah.

Now you can actually eat.

Yeah. Cos you're relieved.

We can, like, breathe now.

It was really scary

walking into breakfast

because you have to play dumb,

but not too dumb.

So, it's a real juggling act.

This is all free, right?

Leave a pound.

CLARE LAUGHS

Charge you later, Joe.

Who do we think might be dead?

So, the shields were

Celia, Joe Marler, you,

me and Jonathan

we know it won't be.

KNOCK ON DOOR

Oh! Oh, my God. Hello, come in.

Oh, my God, oh, my God, oh, my God.

Hey. Hi.

THEY CHEER

Good morning!

I was nervous to see if I made it,

you know, to breakfast.

You know, it'd be pretty terrible

going on an all-inclusive

to the Traitors castle and then

you don't even get

a croissant out of it.

The tension of waiting

is just horrendous.

Oh, horrible, horrible.

I first go through the door,

"Oh, my God.

"You're still alive, you haven't

been m*rder*d."

And, of course, I know

none of them have been m*rder*d

but, at the minute, I'm just going

to carry on what I'm doing,

being super friendly,

being a little bit, "Ooh"

Quite dithery.

I can't wait to be m*rder*d and just

take that minging photo down.

Why was I staring in the sun?

I think you look strangely

sexy in that.

Oh, thank you.

S Emphasis on strange.

Who's not here yet?

It's kind of weird at the breakfast

because everyone's waiting

for the end, when they're going to

see that someone's dead

and, of course, no-one's gone,

so, as long as we don't act

any differently

when the deed has been revealed,

I think we're in the clear.

So, that's actually quite

a restful morning.

Ruth, have you got any suspicions?

Nothing solid. You're not No.

So, who's in your Will I give you

a name and you give me a name?

OK, three, two, one.

Who?

Yeah.

Do you think that there's a Traitor

in this room right now?

Law of averages says has to be.

Almost don't look at the door.

Look at whoever goes the loudest -

"Oh, my God, it's" Yeah.

Yeah.

That's my number one.

It's mainly cos of something I saw

when they took the eye patches off.

There was an over-reaction

to the word Faithful.

It was a real

It was that.

BANGING ON DOOR

Oh. Oh, hello.

Oh, hang on.

Woo!Yeah. Who's this?

Yes!

Who else? Who else? Who else?

Ah!

You made it.

Paloma.

Paloma!

Oh, my God.

I was so happy

and, like, relieved.

It was really nice to see

the reaction of everyone

who was pleased to see you as well,

and I thought,

"Oh, thank goodness not to be

the first one dead."

I'm so happy to see you.

I'm so happy to see you.

I didn't avoid eye contact

with Paloma

because I thought people are going

to be lookingfor the

..any sort of changes in behaviours,

so I just looked at her and I was

just like,

"I'm so happy to see you,"

and she was like,

"I'm so happy to see you."

Oh, God, I'm awful.

Who's missing?

Nick. Lucy.

Stephen.

And then Celia.

Oh, my God.

It's not Celia,

cos she's got a Shield.

It's very unlikely to be Stephen,

so it's between Nick and Lucy.

Yeah. No.

No! Oh

LAUGHING:Oh, God, I'm taking this

way too seriously.

Oh.

Oh, knock on that door, come on.

KNOCK ON DOOR

Oh! Oh. Oh-oh-oh.Yes.

THEY CHEER

That's everyone. That's everybody.

That's everyone.

That's everybody. Is it?

Yeah.

What in the?

That's all of us.

Oh, thank goodness.Oh, for

Nick, Nick, Nick.

Hey, maybe someone was recruited.

Maybe someone's been recruited.

Hello. What?

Obviously, I've m*rder*d

someone in plain sight

and it's a slow-working poison,

so I had to pretend - "What?!"

"They're all down here?

But I thought someone was m*rder*d."

What happened?

It was a stretch for

my acting ability.

I don't know how

Meryl Streep does it.

No-one's been m*rder*d.

No, we're all alive!

I feel like Kate was being

a lot louder than usual.

I just I don't

I don't know, there's something

There's something a little bit off.

I never thought I'd care this much.

Cos everyone was feeling so tense.

Yeah, we were all building up

to this horrible moment.

STEPHEN GASPS

Here we go.

Here we go. Order!

Oh, gosh.

Good morning, players.

Morning. Morning. Good morning,

darling. Morning, Claudia.

Everyone is here,

present and correct.

It appears that nobody has died.

But appearances can be deceptive.

Oh

The Traitors did strike

for the first time.

And yesterday they m*rder*d

one of you in plain sight.

Oh, no. No!

What? No. In plain sight?

What? What did they do?

I knew that

So, whilst the m*rder*d player

sits amongst you all

GASPING AND LAUGHING

Oh!

Oh, no.

..by the end of today's mission,

they will be dead.

Oh, my goodness. Oh, no, don't.

So, enjoy your breakfast

ALAN CHUCKLES

..if you can,

then please put on your mourning

attire and meet me outside shortly.

What the heck?

Mourning with a "U", I think.

Oh, I don't like this.

That's quite a twist.

Do you think somebody did

something unusual?

It would have had to have been

unusual enough

for it to feel risky, wouldn't it?

PEACOCK CALLS

Morning, Luce.

How are you? I don't like this.

I don't like it at all.

Shall we go and sit in here?

Why don't we?

Goodness gracious me!

I bet you it's in a chapel.

What do you mean?

Oh, cos of mourning. Mourning wear.

Yeah. Yeah, it's not morning attire,

it's mourning.

How do you know?

You know, to mourn.

It's M-O-U-R-N-I-N-G.

Yeah, but Claudia

didn't say it like that.

She said,

"Wear your mourning attire."

Yeah. Yeah. So, could be

But she didn't spell it.

No. No. So, how do you know?

Stephen had the same idea,

and I'll believe Stephen.

Cos I actually Yeah, actually,

fair enough, then.

To actively m*rder someone, you have

to give them something or

We need to see who gets m*rder*d

and then work backwards and see

what they were doing -

if they were acting weirdly,

if they had

Or who gave them that glass.

Oh, no, I feel bad, I feel bad,

but you know, Ru

Did you see Ruth

with the marshmallows?

The marshmallows? She came round

with the marshmallows.

Well, no, no.

That was So that was my idea.

We just brought it down to the fire,

do you remember?

OK, yeah,

I'm just thinking off the top

But you couldn't control who would

eat from it, could you?

No, no, no.

I feel like I had so little

..few interactions yesterday

that I don't feel like I was got.

Every single thing that happened

yesterday could have been that.

Who Niko hugged me goodbye.

Niko hugged you goodbye?

Yeah, he was like,

"Oh, can I hug you?"

My number-one suspect.

But isn't it obvious, cos that's

what his whole career's built on?

I suspect. He's the kind of person

who Exactly!

So maybe it's too obvious,

you mean?

I mean, what else,

though? What else could it be?

I'm not sureof anything. Yeah.

And that's what

they like to do to us.

There are so many possibilities

of what m*rder in plain sight

might entail, whether it could be

to give you a letter, or,

"Oh, have a look at this book.

What do you think it?"

You know, it could be anything.

Jonathan had briefly mentioned

that my name had come up

and I was like,

"What?! As a Traitor?"

It was, erm It was a surprise.

Shall we sit here?

Look, people like Niko, Lucy

or David

could fly under

the radar really easily.

Yeah.

They're the little sweet ones.

Yeah.

Cos you always think of a Traitor

as being this cunning k*ller.

Hey, guys, you good? Hello.

Yeah, we're good. How are you?

Yeah, we're great.

I love the green.

Oh, thank you.

It's beautiful.

Have Have you noticed anything

weird, either of you?

SHE EXHALES

It's so hard to tell at this point

because everyone worked

so well together on their mission.

Why, have you noticed anything?

No, I'm just retracing everything

that happened,

but one thing which I am thinking is

very smart is,

now we're all thinking about this

instead of who the Traitors are.

It's, "Oh, OK, who's been m*rder*d?"

Well, I don't know about you guys,

but I am.

Yeah, totally.

Ooh, that's interesting.

I didn't see it from

that perspective. Mm, yeah.

Oh, goodness!

Fearful stuff. Fearful stuff.

Oh, no.

Yeah. Stirring the pot there.

Yeah.

I wonder whether the Traitors

were also surprised

when the person that they've chosen

to m*rder walked in.

I wish I was looking at Kate's

face when she went,

"Wait, what? Why are they not dead?"

You know what I mean?Yeah.

Cos it was

Straight away Kate went,

"Oh, there must have been

a recruitment," like, to try and

People may think of me

as just an athlete,

when actually, I like to think of

myself as somebody

that is very observant

and can think about

lots of things all at once.

The clever ones.

Oh! No.

THEY LAUGH

We wish!

Somebody is dead now.

I know.Walking around.

Walking Well, not

We Could we be dead?

You can't, cos you've got a Shield

and I've got a Shield.

I could, I ain't got

I didn't have a Shield.

Yeah.You could be dead.

I could be dead.

I am on the inside.

Please, don't, don't, don't, don't.

ALAN LAUGHS

JONATHAN:Who do you trust?

Charlotte, I trust.

Yeah. No, well, I don't, you see.

Why?

What?!

She gave up her Shield very

quickly.

That would be a very good

move for a Traitor,

because she doesn't need it anyway.

But can we just say, she is a very

nice person. Maybe it was that.

She's adorable,

but that's the point, don't you see?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yes.

And she's very bright

and very quick.Yeah.

And you have to be.

I don't trust you, you see.

What?! I'm sorry, Joe.

You're very clever.

You see? And you would be a very

unlikely choice for a Traitor

because you're so adorable.I know.

You do have to watch people

very carefully.

The Traitors who are here

are being so smart

because I can't really tell.

I'm beginning to suspect everyone.

But you are right, even though

you're accusing me.

But, yeah, if you're being really

clever, you have to go

Ignore the people you think it might

be, and go the other way,

and then I reckon

you've got more chance.

Exactly!

I know, that's why I'm sat here

surrounded by three Traitors.

THEY LAUGH

I am, in my day-to-day life,

very weak-willed.

I'm a sheep, erm, but in this game,

I'd like to put my best foot forward

and hunt down a Traitor with,

erm, such vigour

that it frightens people.

THUNDER RUMBLES

With the Faithful still speculating

about last night's m*rder

in plain sight,

the players must now come together

for their next mission.

But for poisoned Paloma,

the end of her time is drawing near.

We came out of the castle to see

Claudia resplendent on horseback,

in front of a rather more worrying

sight of three coffins.

I was just, likeshocked.

There's three coffins.

Joe Marler's not going to get in

one of those, is he?

It's all starting to feel

a little bit real.

We actually have m*rder*d someone.

Dearly beloved players,

we are gathered here today

to pay our respects

to our first m*rder*d Faithful.

A high-profile death

deserves a high-profile funeral.

You might be wondering

why there are three coffins.

All will be made clear.

For one of you,

death is incredibly close.

Now follow me.

We're going on a little walk.

Oh, my God, it just

feels very forbidding.

Macabre, morbid, desperately gloomy,

and we know that at the end of it,

someone's not coming back with us.

Wow!

The heart is a-racing.

I don't usually get nervous, but I'm

starting to get a little bit shaky.

HE EXHALES

KITE CRIES

SOMBRE VOCALISING

Oh, my God, that's really creepy.

SOMBRE VOCALISING

VOCALISING CONTINUES

That was cheery.

Players, welcome back

to the graveyard.

Oof! On day one,

you dug your own graves.

Today, our first m*rder*d Faithful

will be laid to rest here.

Players, your mission today

is to correctly identify

which Faithful has been m*rder*d

by answering a series of clues.

The clues will whittle down

the potential victims to three

..the m*rder*d Faithful

and two other players

the Traitors chose to lie

alongside themjust for fun.

Oh!

Oh, God!

The Traitors

could have also chosen themselves

to lie in the coffins.

Oh!

Celia, Kate, Joe Marler,

Joe Wilkinson and Jonathan,

you have shields, so you are safe.

The rest of you

thoughts and prayers.

Wow! Thanks.

So, to clarify, you need to solve

clues to work out

which three players

belong in these coffins.

For each player

you correctly identify,

I will add £3,000 to the prize fund.

That means a total of £9,000

is up for grabs today.

But each time you request

an additional clue,

money will be deducted.

I will now hand over to the choir

for the first clue.

THUNDER CRACKS

Has any of the actors died?

Because nobody here's

Yeah, several times. Kicked

the bucket means Yeah, died.

Kicked the bucket out of sight.

Might as in strength? Yeah,

but Joe's got I was thinking Joe

but he's got a Yeah, but he's got

a Shield. He's got a Shield.

But then I guess we've all chased

goals. Do we want to hear

a second clue, just in case?

I think we should, yeah.

We're not definitive, are we?

No. No.

My strategy was to act like

I didn't know the answers

and I was

as confused

as the rest of the group.

OK, here is the second clue,

but it does mean you'll lose £500.

Ballot box. Ballot box.

Oh, is it Niko?

Oh, my goodness me. It's Niko.

When it came out with

the ballot box, I instantly knew

it was Niko because he famously

ran for London Mayor.

Oh, my God!

Are we agreed, everyone? ALL:Yes.

So, Niko, please lie in the coffin.

It's the first time in a coffin.

Oh, Niko!

Oh!

Oh, no!

I can think of nothing worse

than going out on the first m*rder.

I just I Like, now the fear

level has gone up even more.

My paranoia is spiralling.

Niko, I can tell you,

that coffin does belong to you.

CHEERING

£2,500 banked.

If we put Niko into one

of the boxes Yeah. Mm-hm.

..who we know there is heat on

already,

then it might be enough for one of

them to say, "His name's come up."

That's what people are like,

they are second-guessing,

so I think that's a really good

call. And they've struggled

to trust him because of the videos

that he makes on YouTube.

His name has come up a lot.

Niko, I'm afraid your time with us

may soon be over.

Oh!

When Niko got in that coffin,

he actually looked quite sad,

and that made me feel quite bad

and a bit guilty.

On to the next coffin.

"With laughter and jest." Alan's

got a radio show, it's Airwaves.

I did Radio 2 for years.

I think it might be me.

I've got a podcast

and I've done Taskmaster.

Oh, I haven't done, I haven't

Task I haven't done a task

I've had a Radio 4 series

and I was on Taskmaster.

It had the word

"task" in and "airwaves"

and I thought, "Could that be me?"

But Nick thought it was about him.

And was your Was the radio show

a comedy? A comedy, yeah.

Shall we do second clue? I think

we have to do second clue.

Second clue, please.

You would like a second clue?

Yeah. Yeah.

NICK:It's me. It's me.

To my horror, the next clue,

space rocket, the Apollo 11,

was brought out and I was like,

"Well, that's me."

Oh, it's Nick. Oh, it's Nick.

It is Nick.

Have you made your decision

or would you like another clue?

We've made our decision. Yeah.

You've made your decision.

Who do you think

this coffin belongs to?

Mr Nick Mohammed. Nick.

Nick Mohammed, please.

It was horrible getting

into the coffin and, um, yeah,

I've never got into a coffin before,

obviously,

so it was just quite

ominous and surreal.

If you get this correct,

you will bank £2,500.

Before I reveal

if you guessed correctly,

I am going to show you

the third clue.

THUNDER CRASHES

What's in it? A boat! A boat.

A boat? It's pointing

to the yellow Oh! Yello.

Oh, no, it can't be me,

that's the hull of a boat

but I've got nothing to do with

Apollo.

From Hull. But why a spaceship

for Lucy Beaumont?

Oh, it's me, then.

I wonder if it's

I had a show called Space Mam.

ALL: Oh!No!

So it's me. Lucy! This is awkward.

I've played at the Apollo.

Ah, it's me. So it's Hull,

Live At The Apollo,

I was on Taskmaster and I've got

a podcast It's too late,

disnae matter, it's too late.

Nick?Yeah. I can tell you

that that is not your coffin.

DISAPPOINTED GROANS

It is not your time to die yet.

Oh, after all that.

I'm so sorry.

The coffin was chosen for Lucy.

Oh! Lucy! Lucy!

Here's something, though.

Is it worth putting someone quieter?

Like who? Like Lucy?

And then we can just say,

"You are quiet, Lucy.

"You're so far under the radar."

Yes. Oh, yes.

I can't really compare the coffin

to anything I've experienced before.

I once fell asleep

in a wheelie bin. That's about

That's about it.

Players, by guessing incorrectly,

I'm afraid you haven't banked

any money for this coffin.

I'm sorry I got it wrong

but it's just Airwaves was a bit

No, no, we're sorry

it's you in the coffin as well.

We should blame the Traitors

cos they must have known

and they could have stepped forward

and steered us.

We knew that it was

meant to be her but, of course,

if we'd have intervened,

we'd have given ourselves away.

It's time to find out who the third

and final coffin belongs to.

They said it was

Says, "The story is done,

"but your words live on."

Is it Charlotte?

I hope my story's not done.

LAUGHTER

The next clue. Her story's not done.

It's still worth getting another

clue, isn't it? Yeah, second clue.

The second clue

for the final coffin. Here it comes.

School tie. A school tie.

Is it a school tie?

St Trini Is it you, Paloma?

St Trinian's?

But Celia, me and Stephen

were in St Trinian's. Ah, yes.

Well, it could be black and white,

it could be Newcastle.

Newcastle?

Yeah, which could be me.

I'm from Newcastle

and it looked like

Newcastle United colours.

I was convinced it was me.

But I think we should get

a third clue.

We think it's David

but we want a third clue. Yeah.

So, you'd like a third clue?Yeah.

You'll lose another £500.

What is that? Hearts, it's a heart,

like heart badges.

Plasters on the hearts. Broken

hearts? Has anyone got a song

called Plaster On The Heart?

Only Love Hurts Like This.

Yeah. Oh!

Yeah, but I don't understand

why the tie St Trinian's.

..but could be St Trinian's. And

then You found your thing

in the big smoke, but you're

a Londoner. I am from London.

What's "the story's done

and her words still spoke"?

But that is

Only Love Can Hurt Like This. Right.

And that looks St Trinian's-y.

It is me, I think.

It's the St Trinian's tie.

It has to be Paloma.

Have you made your decision?

Paloma. Paloma. Me.

PalomaYeah. ..step forward.

Oh, no, don't say that!

God, what a grim day.

I've no idea

what's going on right now.

All I hear is the rain

and my heart beating really,

really fast in my chest.

It might It's one of you. It

might not be you. Might not be you.

There's only one.

I feel so bad

seeing Paloma get in the coffin.

I mean, she actually looks at me and

I look at her and she's like, "Oh!"

And I'm like, "Yeah,

I popped you in that coffin."

I can now reveal that

the third coffin belongs to

..Paloma.Yeah! Woo!

Congratulations. You banked £2,000.

Well done, everyone.

You correctly guessed two players.

You've won £4,500

for the prize fund.

But that's horrible,

though, cos that means

one of the three are going.

I was terrified for whoever was

getting m*rder*d, but there was

a part of me that could just have

a little sigh of relief

because it wasn't going to be me.

There is one last question

to answer, and it is a big one.

Oh!

As a group, you must now decide

who of these three

did the Traitors m*rder

in plain sight?

Oh, God!

If you guess correctly,

I will give you an extra £4,000.

4,000!

Once you've decided,

you must place this wreath

at the foot of their coffin.

You may start your discussion now.

OK, vote, vote.

Put it to a vote.

Right. That's the fairest way

to do it, cos we've no clue.

OK, yeah. Yeah, yeah, I think Ruth

is right, we should vote. Yeah.

OK, hands up forPaloma.

I'm stuck between

a rock and a hard place.

Obviously I know

the answer's Paloma,

but if I say it's Paloma

then I'm going to have heat on me.

One.

OK. Hands up for Lucy.

There's no point in taking a vote

for Niko. How many for Niko?

PALOMA:I think it's me,

though, I do.

Tell me who you're locking in.

Lucy. Lucy. Lucy.

Oh, Lucy-Lu!

Thank you, Mark.

According to you, Lucy has been

m*rder*d by the Traitors.

If you are right, £4,000

will be added to the prize pot.

But have you guessed

the m*rder victim correctly?

We are about to find out.

This is really sad.

ALL EXCLAIM

What? Oh, Paloma, you were right.

That is flabbergasting.

It was Paloma.

Bye-bye, Paloma. Love you, Paloma.

Paloma is dead.

Rest in peace.

PALOMA:♪ Don't ask me ♪

We love you, Paloma!

♪ ..What you know is true ♪

I thought that I wasn't going to get

emotional but I feel really sad.

♪ ..I love your precious heart ♪

Oh, my God.

Goodbye, sweet Paloma.

It's been really

a wonderful experience.

I just wish it had been longer,

but I guess that just leaves me

to say that this is now goodbye.

♪ ..And they could never

tear us apart ♪

I'm feeling really sad,

actually, truthfully.

She was such a joy.

Our sunshine's gone.

Would anybody like to say

a few words?

Alan, you knew her the best, why

don't you say something about her?

Yeah. Oh, well

Well, I think I think we're all

going to miss her, really.

The biggest irony is,

for someone who was so full of life,

and then to end like this,

it just doesn't feel fitting

and, er, I think

we're going to miss her.

And we will avenge her death!

Yes! Yeah! We're going to get some

Traitors, ain't we? Yes, we are!

CHEERING

It's been a dramatic day.

I have to tell you,

it might also be a dramatic night.

Now get back to the castle.

I'll see you later.

Paloma, I'm sorry we k*lled you.

It was absolutely nothing personal.

For you, it was wrong time,

wrong place,

wrong game.

PALOMA:♪ ..And they could

never, ever tear us apart ♪

You, Alan, were really close

to Paloma. Yeah.

So how are you feeling?

We really did have a bond and,

obviously, you know, I hate goodbyes

at the best of time,

but what a goodbye, you know

I think Paloma's m*rder

has thrown everyone off my scent.

I'm getting a lot of sympathy,

"Are you all right?"

"I know Paloma was close to you."

Paloma's m*rder's my Shield

cos people just think,

"Oh, Alan wouldn't do that

to his good friend!"

If you were a Traitor, right,

who's the least likely person

to have k*lled Paloma?

Someone she's close to. Exactly.

Oh, you're talking about Alan.

I'm talking about Alan.

So you're suspicious of Alan

right now? No, I'm just saying,

that's the least likely person

to have k*lled her

but it's also therefore something

you have to consider. Yeah.

If a Traitor's name comes up,

I will defend them as much as I can,

but not to my own detriment.

Any thoughts?

I hate to say it,

but I think Clare and Kate.

Clare? Let me tell you about Kate.

I feel Kate is a Traitor.

Really? Kate's a Traitor.

I see it and I feel it.

I watched everybody

to see people's reactions.

The person that I had in my head

was Tameka.

Oh, that's interesting.

Tameka and Kate both sort of did

a "ohhh", you know, thing.

I'd already started

my narrative about Tameka,

so I thought,

"Well, that fits, that fits."

I just don't think I'm going to go.

First? No, to the Round Table.

Oh! Just going to

I'm going to hide

under the Round Table.

HE LAUGHS

PEACOCK CRIES

There's 18 of us now.

Oh, dear!

My gosh!

Let's go in the, um, library?

Or the bar?

Maybe in the bar?

Poor Paloma. Yeah.

It was really shocking, wasn't it?

It was.

I feel like

..I have to defend myself

properly now Yeah.

..because I think there's now

a lot of eyes on me, which is

Yeah, I see what you mean. Mm.

The one thing which the Traitors

will do is plant seeds.

Whoever is being brought up

into the conversations continuously,

that's probably the Traitors

who have done that.

"Who can we put in the coffin

who's going to

"..who everyone's going to look at?"

Yeah. And then I feel like

that's where I was then put forward,

which is a bit of a problem.

But I think everyone's

on tenterhooks. You think?

Yes, I do.

Yeah, we'll see.

Oh!

I've just noticed that they've

already crossed out her face.

GASPING

Oh, my God, they have.

That makes it final.

Oh! That's awful.

It'll be weird now without her.

Yeah.

Weirdest of all for Alan.

Yeah. He's lost his buddy.

Taking out someone as big

and loud and wonderful as Paloma,

so that's a bold move,

and, obviously, Paloma and Alan,

I mean, they are, like, best mates,

but could it be Alan? Could Alan

have actually done in Paloma,

straight off, sent her home?

Knowing that nobody would ever think

he would do that.

Let's go down the road that they

have picked one of themselves

to go in. It wasn't Paloma.

I just can't see Lucy

putting herself through that. No.

OK, but that doesn't mean Niko IS -

it just means that if we were going

down that route, you would choose.

He's very worried now.

Who, Niko, because of that?

He's very worried.

Now he's done a very good convincing

on me that he absolutely isn't.

I do think putting yourself

in the coffin

is a bit nuts at this point,

personally.

It does draw attention to yourself.

Well, that's what he thought and

he thought And he has a point.

If I was a Traitor, I wouldn't

I wouldn't put myself in the

Cos you've got to keep a low

Under the radar.

Yeah, you just want to be

in the middle. Personally.

I don't think Niko is a Traitor.

I'm looking at someone who

hasn't really been accused yet,

so I've narrowed it down

to myself or Tom.

I'm leaning towards Tom.

He's sweetness and light,

but he'sdiving, ain't he?

But imagine that,

callously picking us off.

I'd watch that.

Hello, guys. The thing is..

Room for one more?

Yeah, absolutely,

come and take a seat.

Pick the Traitors off one by one,

that's what you've got to do. Yeah.

Lull them into a false sense

of security and then, bang, get 'em.

Yeah. How are we feeling?

Pretty good.

I want to avenge Paloma's death.

Yeah. Yeah.

What's your feeling with Niko?

I personally I don't feel like

he's a Traitor.

Mm. I sort of was looking at people

who were kind ofbe, like,

over-compensating

and being super, like,

exaggerated with just

their responses to things.

Go on.

Well, like Kate, for example.

I said Kate.

"Oh, my gosh, I'm flabbergasted."

Like, who uses that word?

You can't just call someone

a Traitor

cos they have a better vocabulary

than you.

"Flabbergasted" is like saying

"whoops-a-daisy", is it not?

THEY LAUGH

You know when you just get

a vibe from someone? Mm.

I do think the Round Table

might be a bit intense.

I don't feel like I'm

going to have a problem, er,

writing a name on a board.

I'll keep Paloma in my heart and

Let's do it for her.

Yeah, absolutely.

It's been a traumatic day

as we laid poor Paloma to rest,

but now it's time for the Faithful

to avenge her m*rder

as they gather at the Round Table

and start the eternal debate -

who is a Traitor?

Get comfy, it's time

for the first banishment.

Heading into the Round Table,

my heart is just in my mouth,

to be honest.

We've just seen Paloma m*rder*d.

No-one expected that, so now

you're thinking anyone could go.

People are coming for me,

there's no doubt about that,

but if you think I'm not

ready for it, you lost your mind.

I have no idea in which direction

this Round Table's going to go.

When it's the first banishment,

you have to make a decision

based off so little data, so I just

have to stick with what I think

and hope that no-one comes for me.

My game plan at the moment,

especially around the Round Table,

is to just lay low, stay quiet.

Just going to fly under the radar.

We know how ruthless they are,

these dastardly Traitors.

They're clever,

so we've got to find them.

Players,

welcome back to the Round Table

and your first banishment.

Congratulations. After today,

your prize fund currently stands

at £19,500.

Here's a thing.

One of the skills you need

to be good at this game

is to know when somebody

is lying to you.

You are famous.

People lie to you all the time.

LAUGHTER

"I loved that show."

"It's a great jacket."

LAUGHTER

"I listened to that

particular podcast twice."

Lies.

So, how on earth are you going to

tell if somebody is lying to you?

Let me tell you how this works.

Whoever receives the most votes

will be banished

and will reveal if they're a Traitor

or a Faithful

as they leave the castle.

So, then, players,

for the first time,

the floor is yours.

Can I start just by reiterating

that we have to write a name down

and we have very little to go on,

and whatever name we write down,

it isn't because we dislike someone

or we think

they should leave the game.

The greatest detective there ever

was, Sherlock Holmes, said,

"It is a cardinal error

to theorise without data."

And we have almost no data to go on.

We are, as Claudia said,

going on instinct.

I've got to ask a question

which sounds a bit side bar,

but a couple of people have

mentioned that my name

has cropped up, right,

in conversations.

If anybody has been

part of those conversations,

can you say what came up? Because

I feel like then that might help us

to understand

what people are thinking of.

I mentioned your name.

Why did you think that?

Because I think in I'll say

the mission today, specifically

OK. ..I didn't know whether your

sort of larger response to Paloma's,

er, coffin being closed

was an overcompensation,

or whether it was a genuine

Right. ..sort of fear.

Well, first of all, I'm a massive

ham. That's the first thing.

So, my reactions are always

massively over the top

about everything. But, genuinely,

I was flabbergasted.

And I'll own up as well.

Exactly the same thing.

When we were here and we took

the masks off Yeah.

..the overreaction wasn't to the

word "Traitor" from you,

it was to the word "Faithful."

When you went, "Faithful"

But it's exactly the same thing.

It's the over It's the ham.

It's the ham. I am a ham,

I'm a terrible ham, yeah.

Um I just have a question.

When we were doing the challenge,

a lot of people were very

forthcoming with their shields

and stuff. I just didn't

Maybe I didn't hear you,

but I didn't notice you

once offer it up.

I didn't know that Charlotte had

offered it. That's how out of it

I was. I actually didn't know

you'd given it up.

I was in a blur, but also

isn't that evidence of a Faithful?

It means that I was more keen

to hang onto the Shield.

One thing we might consider, of

course, is that Claudia asked us all

whether we wanted to be

Faithfuls or Traitors.

We might consider amongst ourselves

who we think is the kind of person

who would say,

"Yeah, I'd love to be a Traitor."

On that basis, I felt - and, again,

don't take this personally -

that Niko was the kind of person

who might say,

"I'd love to be a Traitor."

OK, well, I'm actually glad that

I've got this opportunity to speak

and defend myself.

First off, I am a Faithful.

I actually asked to be a Faithful as

well. But what I will say is, today,

obviously, rest in peace to Paloma,

but I believe that I've been set up.

I believe that when the Traitors

met up, they were like,

"Well, let's put Niko forward

"because Niko has come up

in conversation

"and if he's in there, he's going to

get brought up at the Table."

It's going to be a reason

that's used against me.

But with that being said,

does anyone have any rebuttal

as to why I would, as a Traitor,

put myself into the coffin where

everyone's eyes would be on me?

I think there's a case of double

and triple bluffs here. Yeah.

I mean, and there's other reasons

that I've been also thinking

about you, Niko, and one of them

being, at the Round Table,

before and after,

you had an impeccable poker face.

Yeah. And you were,

like, completely expressionless.

Mm-hm. And that made me wonder.

Niko, can I add something? Yeah.

Because, first of all,

I really like you

and I really admire you as well.

Um, but I also was someone

who raised you name earlier on,

and for the same reason

that Charlotte's just said,

and I thought there was a change in

your behaviour. That's why I thought

there was a chance, and that's why

I am one of the people

who did mention your name. All

I can say, cos if I am a Traitor,

why would I put myself

into a coffin?

It doesn't make any sense at all.

It does feel risky.

Extremely risky.

And I think, like I mean,

the proof of that is in the fact

that we're all talking about it now,

so Exactly.

Just, actually, in Niko's defence

as far as, you know,

being a Traitor is concerned,

that jars in my head.

The changes in behaviour

that I've noticed for the person

that I have observed

over the last two days,

and it's really hard

and I'm sorry but, Tameka, erm,

when we came out of here

the other night

after the Traitors had been chosen,

I thought I sensed

a real change in your behaviour.

You seemed quite,

er, withdrawn, jittery,

and then today I watched

when Claudia was pacing up and down

those coffins before she slammed

Paloma's lid shut Mm-hm.

I didn't want to watch that.

I wanted to watch the crowd

to see everybody's reaction. Your

reaction didn't ring true for me.

It was aover the top

Today, I was really shocked

because I thought it was you, Lucy,

and I really didn't want it to be

you, so when Claudia shut the

Yeah, that makes sense. ..coffin

on Paloma, I was genuinely shocked,

and then I was just trying

to just think my way through it

and I actually noticed you walk away

and was looking back, because it was

almost as if you were looking at,

"That's happening over there, but

what are other people looking at?"

You separated yourself to look at

everybody else Mm-hm. ..on that.

Cos I want to know

who the Traitors are.

But it's very interesting that

you're talking about people's,

you know, looking different.

I felt, after the selection,

I felt that, um, yourself, Kate,

had changed. Really?

Yeah, I'm sorry.

I absolutely promise you,

I'm a Faithful.

STEPHEN:Let's imagine

that we were Traitors.

Um, what would inspire us to choose

Paloma as our first victim?

Well, Paloma's own theory was that

she was such a big character

Yes. ..that it was a way of

shocking. And would you have said,

"Let's get Paloma

because she's a big character"?

I don't think I would. I think

I would have done something

more closer to what Niko's

describing. I would have worked out

who the heat was on

Yes. ..in the first day

and think,

"Who would easily be banished?"

It's a cruel touch of genius,

though. It is.

I actually have a question for Alan.

You would have talked to Paloma

the most. Yes.

Was there anyone that she kind of

openly suspected? She had two names.

And I couldn't get them out

And she went,

"If I die, there's two names."

Next thing you know, she's shoved

in her coffin and the thing's gone.

It was very frustrating.

Could I say something?

We've hung around quite a lot

and you've been really nervous

about being m*rder*d. ..m*rder*d.

Yep. So, I personally

don't think it's you.

Who do think it is, then?

All right, this hurts,

but I was worried about Tom.

Only because I was

When I started this, I thought,

"Who would I think would?"

I'll be honest, this is probably

going to backfire,

but I thought you and Paloma

are the two people,

if I was in control of this thing,

and that's the only reason I think

it's you. I've had no other proof.

Like, you Niko's come up a lot

and I don't believe

what's been put in front of me.

Thank you. Um, I feel like

the evidence which I've given

makes it quite clear

that it's not me.

I personally believe that

the decision is up to you

and I'll respect that, but

if you do not think it's me,

do not vote for me

because you could be k*lled next.

Oh, God! Players,

the time for talk is now over.

Oh, hell! Oh, God!

Please write down the name of the

person you believe is a Traitor.

WHISPERS:This is awful.

Are you names locked in?

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Thank you.

Ruth, we'll start with you.

Who do you believe is a Traitor

and why?

I voted for Kate.

I just found

that your behaviour changed

and became slightly more animated

any time Traitor talk came about.

Tameka.

I have voted for you, Kate.

I'm just going by

how you were reacting.

Alan.I'm going for Niko.

Um, I've got to go for my friend

who I lost today.

Mark.I'm sorry, Tameka,

but I'm going for you.

Um, just inconsistencies

in behaviour

and over-compensation Anyway.

Yeah.

Niko.I've gone for Tom Daley.

The UK's golden boy might have

a good Traitor streak about him.

You could have definitely

pulled off the whole master plan

of setting me up.

So, a vote count.

Two for Kate, one for Niko,

one for Tameka and one for Tom.

Kate, who do you believe

is a Traitor and why?

I'm going to go for Tameka

because I was very convinced by Niko

that it wasn't Niko.

Joe Marler.Didn't have a lot

to go on, so I went with my gut.

Niko.

Lucy.

I-I-I-I kept scribbling names out

and, Niko,

I've wrote your name down.

This is awful. It's awful.

Cat.

Um, I voted for you, Kate.

I just felt like

in the mission today,

your sort of loudness could have

been an over-compensation.

So, a vote count.

Three for Kate, three for Niko,

two for Tameka, one for Tom.

I'm very nervous.

The reality that I might be gone

at the first Round Table

is starting to set in.

My biggest fear -

I could be out the game.

They've got it so wrong!

This could go any way.

Stephen, who do you believe

is a Traitor and why?
