19 celebrities arrived to play
the ultimate m*rder mystery
These dastardly Traitors,
we've got to find them.
..all in the hope of winning
up to £100,000
for their chosen charity.
Oh!
Six Faithful have fallen
I'm a Faithful. Faithful. Faithful.
THEY GROAN
What are the odds of our being
so useless?
..but as the treacherous trio
remain united
Is it me, or is this
getting a lot easier?
THEY LAUGH
..suspicions continue to grow
Mark, he's so over the top.
I wouldn't be surprised
if he's a Traitor.
I like the big dog theory, but it'd
have to be Stephen to be a Traitor.
I think it is Jonathan.
..and whilst the mission provided
protection for some
There's a Shield on the banshee!
Shall I just take it and then
we all don't tell the other team?
Who wants it? Yes, please!
..for one unlucky player,
the call of death is drawing near.
So it's between
Charlotte
..David
..Kate.
This is The Celebrity Traitors.
♪ Birds flying high
♪ You know I feel ♪
Last night, the Traitors
committed their fourth m*rder,
but which Faithful fell
victim to the Banshee's cry?
♪ And I'm feeling good
OWL SCREECHES
♪ It's a new dawn
♪ It's a new day
♪ It's a new life for me
♪ And I'm feeling good. ♪
We might be first. Oh, we're first.
We are first, yes.
Well, when you have no person
saying, "Come in,"
that's always a bit of a sign.
Oh, smoked salmon today.
The staff are awfully good.
This morning,
came down for breakfast,
relieved I was in.
Last night, we banished Clare.
The game's sort of
frustrating me now.
We've lost six Faithfuls.
It's looking bad now, innit?
I felt very grim this morning.
You know, I'm so cross with myself
that I didn't speak up more.
Yes, we must remember this.
But the trouble is,
once we start writing,
it's like it goes
tick-tick-tick-tick,
and you can't stop it. Yeah.
As you say, there's a cascade, yeah.
And I'm thinking,
"Oh, my God. Stop!"
There is a point where
the train has left the station,
I think, with someone. Yes.
Well, think ourselves lucky
we're alive.
Who do you think
might have been m*rder*d?
If Jonathan's a Faithful,
I think he might
I'm not sure he is.
In a way No, I'm not.
KNOCK AT THE DOOR
Oh, God! Come in! Enter.
Hey, Alan!
Hey, Cat!
Hey, Mark!
How lovely! That's a good trio.
Well done.
I was hoping you three,
I was hoping you three.
I hope you all slept well.
I did, cos I've got a Shield.
CHEERING
Oh, you had the Shield? Yes.
As did I.
The Traitors don't know.
Well, they might know. The Traitors
don't know who had the Shield,
that's right. They don't know.
But if there was a Traitor
in the woods Yeah.
..they will have seen Cat get it,
very obviously,
and they will have a chance to tell
the other Traitors. Yeah. Yeah.
Yes, exactly.
Do you remember, and it's always
good to remember
the last wishes of a dying person,
what Clare said?
She turned to Charlotte,
who was next to her, and said,
"When you started going for me, I
knew it was you." So, her dying wish
is that we consider Charlotte,
if nothing more than that.
I was the only other one
to vote for Charlotte.
I voted for Charlotte the day before
and you on the first day.
And I'm still convinced, by the way.
Yeah.
And watch her reaction, as well,
when the people come in, as well.
Yes, exactly. That's a good thing.
To be sitting there outwitting
Stephen Fry, I mean,
it's like beating Albert Einstein
in chess or Cluedo or something.
I just started stuffing cheese
in my mouth,
cos I can't stop grinning.
Isn't it funny? I was so nervous
when Claudia
squeezed my shoulder blade
and now I just love being a Traitor.
KNOCK AT THE DOOR
Come in! Hello?
CHEERING
Hey! Oh, good.
Oh, how nice. What a four.
Well done.
I'm alive!
Walking into breakfast,
I tried playing it cool,
because I'm starting to get a little
bit bored of all the niceties.
"How are you doing? How did you
sleep? Great to have you here"
Stop with the chitter-chatter.
We need to start ramping
it up a bit.
Let's find a Traitor.
So, who was in the forest group
yesterday?
I was.
Yeah, I got a Shield. Have we all
survived? Has that worked, then?
So, that means
the Traitor's in the other seven.
Oh! Unless someone has tried to
..k*ll Cat. Oh, yeah! Because they
didn't, because they didn't know
They're picking off the young ones.
Cat has been playing
an absolutely brilliant game,
and there was something in the fact
that, you know, she had the Shield,
but we chose to not tell
everyone that she had the Shield.
I didn't buy that,
and I do think she's slipping under
the radar in the most brilliant way.
But I don't think I'm going to
name her at this point
because I think it's safer
to ally myself with her.
I mean, of course I'm speculating,
but that's why it's so fun.
So who's still to come through?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah, who's left? Kate.
Jonathan, and Charlotte.
Oh, my God. It's the last three.
That's the last three. Already.
That's a bit of a surprise.
Yes, you do, don't you?
I'm really tense. Are you?
Starts earlier and earlier,
the stress.
So, if it's Kate,
that rather confirms our suspicions.
Clare, she certainly believed
it was Charlotte.
KNOCK AT THE DOOR
Uh-oh. Come in!
SHOCKED GASPS
Oh!
Oh, my God. Charlotte has gone!
No! How wrong we are.
Oh!
Plan B, guys? Plan B?
So, are we decided? Yeah. Yeah.
Charlotte Church.
It doesn't give anyone any
indication that it could be us.
She's also very,
very calm under pressure.
I feel like she might keep
throwing stuff at the wall
and then eventually, it might stick.
And they're going to go,
"Why Charlotte? Why?!"
And while they're thinking that,
the impact is going to ripple
through that.
Cos it doesn't make sense.
Ah! There we are.
I thought I was going to be
m*rder*d.
I'm outspoken at the Round Table
and I'm outspoken with my opinions.
Not that I was successful in being
much of a threat to the Traitors,
but as the game progressed,
I hope that I would have been,
and I hope that that's why they've
gotten rid of me.
Well played, Traitors.
That's mad. That's utterly insane.
What a surprise. I never saw
that coming. No, nor did I.
I'm very surprised about Charlotte.
Not quite sure where to turn.
I mean, all my guesses
have been wrong,
so I'm a bit befuddled.
I think, Round Table, I think
we stop being nicey-nicey.
I mean, just say who you think.
If you think it's me, you think it's
da-da-da-da, just say it.
Yeah, but it has to start
before the Round Table, mate. Yes.
Cos, when we get in there,
we don't know.
We're relying on the Round Table
to inform us.
We need to go in with a plan
and pick them out.
All of the Traitors are still here,
and there is a real degree of
bloodlust forming in the Faithfuls,
and that's dangerous for us.
I think my name might come up.
I'm trying not to draw attention.
So, I try and sort of set myself
into neutral.
It's just really tricky.
You've got to watch everything
you do and say.
Ah!
HE COUGHS
Look out.
Oh!
Players, good morning.
Morning. Morning. Morning, Claudia.
Another day,
another celebrity death.
Unbelievable.
Oh, Charlotte!
Poor Charlotte has been m*rder*d.
The voice of an angel,
and now she is among them.
Oh!
Are you ready for a really,
really horrible statistic?
You started as 19.
You are now 12.
Players,
you have lost seven Faithful.
Seven.That's bad, innit?
Think about that
while you enjoy your cheese.
I will see you shortly
for the mission.
And a tiny word of warning -
watch your step.
Oh, no! Uh-oh. Oh, Lord!
"Watch your step."
She doesn't like us, does she?
She has every reason
to be contemptuous of us.
Cup of tea.
You going to have a cup of tea?
Let's go in the The library?
..library, yeah.
Trying to
Can I not be in the lead?
Cos I feel like I'm going,
"Come on, girls."
THEY LAUGH
Gravel in the treads of my shoes.
The leader of the Faithfuls.
STEPHEN LAUGHS
Thank you for trusting me.
Or the Traitors.
I think I trust you both,
I really do.
I mean, I don't see you
as a Traitor.
But, then, there's a strong chance
one of you is.
I'll be straight with both of you,
I'm suspicious of
all the actors today.
OK. Ah. Just cos how easy
it would be for you to slip into it.
Yeah, no, I can understand why
you'd say that and that's a
You know But the skills
we bring from our workplace
don't seem to be any good.
Well, hang on a minute,
what's happened here?
I've just said this to you two
I just said to these two, I said,
"I'm looking at all the actors
today." OK. And now I am flanked.
You are. Here we all are.
If I was to rank you,
you're suspect number one for me.
I'm suspect number one? Yeah. Right,
OK. If I had to pick a Traitor
in this environment
Why are you looking at the actors?
You're best suited to slip into
that role. Well, I'll tell you what,
for me it's not to do with how good
an actor you are,
it's to do with the person you are -
and I never, ever wanted to come
into this as a Traitor, ever.
From the very first moment
it was authored or mooted,
I never, ever wanted
Mooted. Mooted.
I say that in Line Of Duty,
don't I?
Please don't confuse me with Dryden,
all right?
Joe, how much of your opinion is
because you have just been watching
Line Of Duty? I know!
Stop watching Line Of Duty, man!
I'm not a Traitor.
Are you a Faithful? Yes.
You're a Faithful, are you?
Yes, and I'm a good one. Well
I'm totally taking this game
seriously. I want to win.
Er, am I competitive? Er, yes.
But cos I play a lot of dodgy men,
I think people,
they probably expect something
of my work to be in me,
but there's not really
any of that in me.
I'm quite daft
and I care a lot about people,
or I couldn't do the job that I do.
I don't think you can be an actor
and not care about people.
I'm going to suspect everyone
of that. That's the only way
I think you can do it, and my
suspicion One's just left,
based on very little,
but when, last night,
Clare was banished,
he was quite performative.
But he is a passionate Scotsman.
I'm pretty convinced that Jonathan
is the leader of the Traitors,
but I want to go after Mark first.
He's so over-dramatic,
and I think it's because
he's been picked as Traitor
and he gets to play this role now
in front of everyone.
Right, what the hell are we going
to do about finding a Traitor?
Oh! I'll be honest,
I wasn't sureabout you.
You can't be. Cat, you have never
voted the people
That we've got wrong.
That we've got wrong.Yeah.
But then, if you're a Traitor,
I don't think you're very smart
because, like Celia,
you're standing out a bit
with your types of vote. Mm.
If I'm honest, in my head, for me
it's between Stephen and Jonathan.
Right.Oh, is it?
That's so interesting.Cos I think
Joe M's theory makes sense.
Stephen could be the leader
of the Faithfuls Yeah.
..and then Jonathan could be
the leader of the Traitors.
But your point was, could be either
way. Yeah. Yeah?
You don't know which one is which?
Yeah.
That's what I still can't work out.
VOICEOVER:I'm a bit apprehensive
because we're about
halfway through now
and I think the Faithfuls
need a Traitor.
I've gone, "Oh, it could be
either Stephen or Jonathan."
I think it's time to start going
with the group a little bit more,
to try and save my back.
This game is making me evil, but
I've got to think for myself here.
It's time for another mission
where all our players
must come together
in order to continue building
the prize pot
for the winner's chosen charity.
Oh, can we be in the back seat, Joe?
Yes, please.
ALAN LAUGHS
Yeah, let's do this.
There we go.
Well, another day,
another mission, my dears.
What did Claudia say?
"Watch your step."
I want it to be something
quite thrilling.
If it is something high,
I will scream.
I've got you two as hundies.
The hundy percenters,
Faithfuls that we trust,
but I'm going for Mark today.
Can you see him, a big fan
of the show, saying to Claudia,
"You're all right,
I'll just be a Faithful"? No.
No. This is his leading role.
Stephen is someone who is
getting looked over,
just because he's Stephen.
I mean, Stephen is
How many Round Tables have we had,
three? Three. Twice at them,
he's made a speech at the beginning
and said, you know, there's
"This is how we should behave."
"This is how we should behave."
Yeah, yeah, yeah. So that's kind of
steering, in a way. Yeah. Yeah.
It's disarming.
Have you gone off Jonathan now? No.
I think he might be the head of the
snake and I know you'll both go,
"Well, why aren't you going
for the head of the snake then?"
And I'm like, "Well, I actually
think Jonathan's got it in him
"to throw a fellow Traitor
under the bus."
Ooh, where are we headed?
Hello, players.
Oh, my God! Oh, what's this?
Oh, hell's bells!
STEPHEN:I don't like the look
of these traps.
ALAN:Oh, no!
NICK:Oh, wow, hang on.
Oh, God, look how high it goes!
Oh, this is going to be grotesque.
Players, welcome.
In today's mission,
we're going for a little wander
through the woods,
where a massive £10,000
is up for grabs.
Wow! Ooh!
"But."
Stephen knows me well.
Through this walk,
we are going to make four stops.
At each stop, there are traps
..and £2,500 up for grabs.
I will give you a question.
All the questions are about
your dearly departed players.
Oh! Oh, God! OK. Right.
Each trap is labelled with
a possible answer to the question
and only one of those answers
is correct.
A player must enter a trap
Oh, my God!
..with money.
Get it right and not only
will you add all that money
to the prize fund, but also
that player will win a Shield.
Oh! Ooh!
However, if you're unsure,
you can split your money
across different answers.
If somebody enters an incorrect
trap, it will be triggered,
and they will be out of the mission.
LAUGHTER
Any money that they are holding will
also not be added to the prize fund.
Are you ready
for your first question
about a dearly departed player?
Yes. Yes.
Is the answer 102 or 96?
Oh Well, we obviously don't know.
It's a guess.
This is where we need Clare. Yes.
I can't see him stopping at 96.
If you've done 96,
you'd want to go over 100.
I thought if I'd got to 96 dives
myself, I'd be like,
"Let's do another 6,
let's get to 102."
I think he did four Olympics.
96 is the only number
divisible by four.
Yes, quite, yeah.
I thought I recalled him saying
something
where he said 100 and something,
but it wasn't 102.
I'm not sure. I think we should
split the fund, don't you?
Definitely split the money.
Who's going to go in?
Who hasn't had a Shield?
I've not had a Shield.
I've never had a Shield.
Nick and Alan maybe?
If you're willing to go for this
particular one. Yes, yes. OK, yeah.
It's great, you know, there were
four Shields up for grabs.
There's possibly enough people
who do believe I am Faithful,
that I am quite an easy target
for the next m*rder.
If I could be protected from that,
that would be nice.
Nick, you're going in 96
with £1,500.
Alan, you're in 102 with £1,000.
I really want a Shield.
Alan, I'll be honest,
I'm hoping you go up.
LAUGHTER
Because I'm a Traitor,
I didn't really need the Shield,
so I had nothing, really, to lose
and I did look like a team player,
sonice little cute
double bluff there for everyone.
Let's find outOh, no!
..the correctCome on! ..answer.
Good luck.
GASPING, SHRIEKING AND LAUGHTER
Oh, Alan!
LAUGHTER
Aah!
The net just scooped me up
and threw me in the air
and I was just covered in leaves
and swinging in the branches
like an orang-utan.
Well done, Alan.
And well done, Nick.
LAUGHTER
Alan, are you all right?
Yeah. Oh, Alan!
He was just suspended
up in the air, plaintively crying.
Help!
Oh, bless him.
Nick, you get a Shield.
Congratulations.
CHEERING
Well done, Nick!
Oh! I have never been
a Shield winner
and so I am absolutely delighted
to have this.
A victory for arithmetic.
I know. Isn't that great?
Alan, we'll leave you there for now.
No! The rest of you, follow me.
Bye, Alan! Bye!
He looks so tragic up there!
Can someone get me down, please?
Claudia?
ECHOING:Help!
Right, this is
a different sort of trap.
Oh, crikey. Players,
we've reached our next stop.
This time,
there are four caged traps
..meaning four potential answers,
and you have £2,500 again.
The next question
is about poor Tameka.
Oh, God!
Who is Helen Mirren?
Helen Mirren is a national treasure.
Apart from Rebel Wilson,
I couldn't tell you
who any of those people were.
I'm drawn to Judi Dench.
I'm drawn to Judi Dench, but then,
if you'd worked with Judi Dench,
wouldn't you have mentioned it,
perhaps? You talk about it?
I know I would have remembered
if she'd told me
she'd worked with Dame Jude
because I have,
and once you've worked with her,
you never forget it.
She's a darling.
If we're guessing,
we should just spread the bet.
I think we just spread it out.
And it is a guess.
I'm going to sit on Vinnie Jones
for £500. Not often you hear that.
Go and get comfortable.
I didn't think he was the answer,
but someone had to do it
and this guy stepped up.
I'll sit on Rebel. OK.
I'll sit on Judi Dench. All right,
and I'll go Helen Mirren.
I just had a sense
it was Judi Dench,
but we didn't know completely,
so we had to split the money.
Lucy, you've got £1,000.
It's not really like me to really
put myself forward like that.
I'm terrible at, like, quizzes.
I might do Mastermind
but I'm going to do it about crisps.
OK, players. Let's find out
what the correct answer is.
Jesus.
Aah!
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
We did it!
We were closer.
That was good!
That was good.
Well done!
Oh, what?! I've never got
a question right in my life!
Well done, Lucy!
This is yours.
Well done.Thank you.
I'm really chuffed!
Players, the film that Tameka was in
with Judi Dench
was Notes On A Scandal.
Ah! Was she?
The three of you, you stay here.
The rest of you, please follow me.
Yes. Ooh!
Well done, Lucy! Bye!
We're caged and Shieldless.
Oh, well. It's quite peaceful,
in a way, though.
Ooh, look. Oh! What fresh hell?
Some lovely, cosy tunnels.
No, you're all right. All right.
LAUGHTER
So, the question is
11 or 12. Well, no, definitely
not 11. 12. I'll tell you why.
It's because I met her
when she was 11.
I was hosting
The Big, Big Talent Show.
I believe an agent
was watching at home
and signed her up as a result
of that. So she was 11
when she was signed.
I would have thought,
unless they turned it around very,
very quickly, my guess would be 12.
Not 13 because part of her appeal
back then,
despite her incredible talent,
was her age. Yeah.
Are we going to put it all in 12?
Let's do it. Yeah, go on.
Shall we be bold? Yeah.
Then who are we nominating to go in
there? I haven't had a Shield.
Oh, David!
David hasn't had a Shield.
You should go for it, David.
We were really confident about this
one, so I went in the tunnel.
Go on, David. Good man. Right.
And we bet all of the money,
£2,500, on 12.
Well done, David. Good luck.
If you're right,
you take all the money.OK.
If you're incorrect,
you lose it all.
Bloody hell!
Let's see if you were correct.
Yes!
CHEERING
Brilliant! Well done, Jonathan.
12 was the right answer.
There we go.
My first Shield.
Well done!
Thank you very much.
Players, the gamble
paid off.
Are you ready to go to your final
set of traps?
Yeah! Yes. Yeah. That's good.
Follow me.
Oh, it's another of these beartraps.
Players, welcome to the last stop.
So far, you have lost four players.
You have added £5,000
to the prize fund. LUCY:Amazing.
The last question is about
the first person who was m*rder*d -
Paloma.OK.
Alan would be the person
to answer this. Yeah. Alan!
Or if only someone
who'd interviewed her a lot.
Any good? I'm pretty sure
it's ghost on a ghost train. Oh!
I'm not 100%,
so we might want to split it,
for the sake of not losing
everything.
Maybe go four bags
on the ghost train
and one bag on the face painter.
Please forgive me if I'm completely
wrong, but it does ring a bell.
You only really
have to look at Paloma.
Which is she most suited for -
face paint or a ghost?
She looks like a ghost.
And now, thanks to the Traitors,
she is a ghost.
I'm happy to take the less likely
option, for a wee ride in the air.
OK, OK. Good for you.
I think a lot of people
were a bit dubious about the nets.
I was the opposite, because
I can't think of anything better
than getting wheech'd up
into the air.
EXHALES
Look at Mark's face. He loves it.
I'm excited!
OK, let's find out
what the correct answer is.
Oh
Yay! Oh!
Wa-ha-ha!
Well done, JR! And well done, Mark.
Woohoo!
It was hilarious
seeing Mark flying in the air.
Are you all right, Mark?
Yeah! Hey, this is fun!
Well done, Mark.
Ghost on a ghost train
was the correct answer.
Thank you, thank you.
You banked £2,000.
Thank you for this, this is lovely.
And that is yours.Thank you.
Well done.Thank you. You can join
your fellow players.Bravo! Whoo!
Well done, Jonathan!
It was your knowledge, too.
Yes. Well done.
VOICEOVER:Having a Shield
as a Traitor is a lovely thing
because you get a Shield,
you know that next morning
when you walk into breakfast, you
don't have to act that bit harder,
so it just means it's one less thing
to have niggling away.
So, players, well done.
A very good day.
You have banked £7,000
for the prize fund.
Yes! Yes. Whoo! Excellent.
Nick, Lucy, David and Jonathan,
you also won a Shield,
so you are protected from m*rder.
Here we go.
Tonight, you will gather at the
Round Table and, fingers crossed,
you'll be hoping this time
you will nab a Traitor.
Please God!
You guys, back to the castle.
Congratulations.Thank you.
Bye, Mark. Bye, Mark. Love yous!
As for you, Mark, we'll get you out
with the others shortly.
LAUGHING:OK!
No immediate rush.
♪ Oh, you'll tak' the high road
♪ And I'll tak' the low road
♪ And I'll be in Scotland afore
ECHOING:♪ Ye! ♪
Oh, that was a good challenge,
wasn't it? I actually liked that.
I feel like I'm saying that
cos I got a Shield but
Who else got a Shield? So,
Lucy and I, David and Jonathan.
If Jonathan isn't a Traitor, he
should feel glad to have one. Yes.
There's suspicion about Mark,
isn't there? The head in hands,
the sort of over
But then you go,
"Is it an over-dramatisation?"
No, because he is like that.
Is he like that? How well
do you know him to be like that?
You know if Stephen was picked
as a Traitor Mm?
..it would be a very clever move,
for the first Round Table,
he basically led it
and if it wasn't him, wouldn't the
Traitors take out Stephen by now?
Surely we can't get eight
Faithfuls in a row?
Yeah, and it would be ten.
Almost half.
Home!
My knees are still trembling, Joe.
LAUGHTER
Ooh! What we got?
We got some steak.
Oh, the steak is tempting me.
You going steak or salmon?
I might try the steak.
I was over the moon to see Alan
fly in the air.
That was why I came.
I thought, "I'm done now."
I've done everything
I could have dreamed of.
LAUGHING:Seeing Alan Carr
suspended in a beartrap!
What are you? I haven't spoken
to you today about tonight.
You were eyeballing me
yesterday quite Yes.
I've got a theory. ..unsubtly.
I've got a theory,
I'm going to mention
Do you want to tell? No.
It is about me? It's about you.
Oh! Oh, OK.
It's about you and I'm going to say
it round the Round Table. Oh, OK.
And I don't think
you're going to like it.
Oh, we're back.
Ah!
PEACOCK CRIES
Seven Faithfuls gone.
Faithfuls have gone.
So, someone knows
this game inside out.
Is anybody thinking Jonathan?
I would say Stephen over
Jonathan at the moment.
Cos they're big dogs?
I think so, I think so.
Who are we not looking at?
No-one's looking at Cat
and we definitely think
she's a Faithful.
I think so.
I mean, she had a Shield.
Have you got any ideas?
No. I haven't got any
LAUGHTER
All your attention is focused
So far, I've been so useless,
it's breathtaking.
I feel like I'm trained to not have
a gut thing and to be balanced
and open-minded and I just think,
"Well, let's put the questions
"that are based on fact,"
but I don't
So what could I ask
that might expose it? You know?
I do have a question mark over Kate.
You know, at this stage in the game,
you kind of want people
to sort of have names
that they're open to sort of start
suggesting
at the Round Table and so on,
and Kate sort of still
seems to be dithering a little bit.
It's so dashed difficult.
It feels like there has been certain
people that feel like they've proven
that they are
Like, you being one.
I'm fully expecting an attack on me
this evening,
simply because it makes sense.
Do you think? Yeah.
People have got to consider someone
new and I think they might
I kind of feel I would pick myself,
in a strange sort of way.
Is there anyone
that's your number one?
The one who knows most about
the game is Jonathan, of course.
I don't know if that makes him
automatically guilty
but maybe wanting to experience
every aspect of the game.
I do have a question mark there.
Yeah, definitely.
Of course I've considered Jonathan.
He'd be a superb Traitor.
He's the superfan of the game,
profoundly knowledgeable,
so he has all the attributes
of a good Traitor.
Would he be so bold to m*rder Ruth,
the one person who had accused him
of being a Traitor?
Would he? I don't know.
Today there was one I've got the
least idea, but I have
Ah, this is the lady
I want to speak to,
because there's a big argument
to people that are leading
the conversations, and turning it
this way and that way.
A bigger voice. Yeah, I think
it's important to look at the
A big dog, there's definitely
a big dog. Yeah. Yeah.
That's what everyone's
talking about, I think.
Got to be a big dog.
That's what's going round, I think.
Well, I think
But there's a mix, you know,
because on one hand there's people
going Jonathan or Stephen,
and then there's people
a load of people saying Mark.
Yeah.I think it's Mark.
And loads of people, like,
leaning towards Mark.
But who's been pushing Mark?
Joe M. Yeah.
Yeah, he did, yeah.
Joe M has been pushing Mark.
Do you think it's Joe?
Yeah, becauseDo you?
I think Joe's really good at
building narratives,
and I think the question is,
when you have an idea,
where did you pick that idea up?Mm!
I think Joe's quite often
at the centre of discussions
about someone who turns out
to be a Faithful.
For the last few days, David,
he hasn't really put an opinion out
and then today, he's started going,
"I think it's Joe Marler."
I'm looking for someone who's going
to try and stay under the radar
until staying under the radar makes
it obvious that you're a Traitor
and that's what David has done.
David has fallen into my theory
of quiet until you need to be vocal.
He is very quiet,
and he's now getting more vocal.
Yeah, but this is what I said
would happen. The thing is, Joe,
everyone is going to get more vocal
now, really, aren't they?
Cos we didn't get anywhere
last night. I think I've said
Hi, Joe. ..some Traitors
are going to stay quiet
until it's weird to stay quiet. Yes.
And David has done exactly that.
Just that.
David started accusing you.
What do you mean, he accused me?
Of being a Traitor. How?
By saying, "I think it's Joe."
THEY LAUGH
And I ignored it,
the possibility of it being me.
Oh, God, cos I was quite convinced
it was Stephen.

Players, welcome back
to the Round Table.
Congratulations on today.
You were brilliant,
and added £7,000 to the prize fund.
That means the current total
is £38,500.
But please remember, if there
are any Traitors left at the end,
they take all the money
for their chosen charity
and they also take all the glory.
So, Faithful, I ask you this -
is tonight the night?
Can you finally catch a Traitor?
The floor is yours.
Er, can I start? Do you mind?
Yes, please. By all means.
OK, um, we want to catch a Traitor.
My first candidate is
Sir Stephen Fry.
Of all of you,
we listen to you the most,
and you have very gently sort of
dominated proceedings so far,
especially in the Round Table.
If I were you,
I would think the same.
I've been thinking this all day.
I know that attention
will turn to me this evening,
it is inevitable and there's nothing
I can say to defend myself
because I have no evidence
with which to do so
except to assure you that it will
be a truly spectacularly, for me,
sad thing but an awful thing
for you when the fourth in a row,
I will stand there and I will say,
"I am Faithful."
I have nothing else to say.
And I believe you.
Well, I'm glad, Celia, thank you.
I don't know why, but I do.
And I just want to warn us,
please let's be wary.
We can't vote off
our Faithful leader.
I'm just saying that
to the other Faithfuls.
That'd be a really bad move.
I think it's more important
we vote off a Traitor.
I think so, too, that's my point.
But who are they, though?
That's the problem. It's Mark.
Mark's a Traitor.
Mark? OK, go on. Reasons being?
Mainly cos of the way
you observed us at Paloma's funeral.
Well, I explained why. I know. OK.
But a Traitor would also watch that
and go, "Oh, can I throw under
the bus at the first Round Table?
"Let's go with Tameka."
And then last night,
when Clare got banished,
you slapped the table twice,
very hard.
I did, yeah.
And it felt quite out of character.
I was pissed off! Oh!
So you're taking that as a sign
that? Just felt a bit staged,
like you were trying to force Oh,
OK, OK. ..that you are a Faithful.
I am a Faithful.
There's nothing I can do to
You know, excuse that or show you
that that wasn't
a demonstrative act,
rather than an instinctive act,
which is what it was.
Can you see that it maybe just
come across as a performance?
I can't affect your interpretation
of my actions. No, I know. I know.
I never wanted to be a Traitor
and that's what I said
when I had my meeting with Claudia,
because I'd be rubbish at it. Yeah.
I know you want to start, too. Yeah,
yeah, I've got suspicions of you.
You throw yourself into every task,
every mission, with such enthusiasm.
Even today,
you wanted to be in that net.
You love Traitors.
You have such an enthusiasm for it.
You're telling me,
when Claudia says to you,
"Do you want to be a Faithful
or a Traitor?"
you've said to Claudia,
"I'll just be a Faithful."
"I'll just be" like we all are,
if we don't find the Traitor,
"a lamb to the slaughter"?
Well, yes, that's true, obviously
You would do that?
That's what I did.
I know I'd be rubbish. I get
flustered and also the pressure
of being a Traitor,
trying to maintain that facade?
No, it's nothing to do
Sorry, just No, no, no, no,
but for someone
who loves the experience,
it would be wonderful
to be a Traitor, wouldn't it?
For someone who's throwing himself
in the task. Well, I don't think
I mean, you just want to be in
the periphery and the shadows?
I think part of the attraction
of being a Faithful,
and what I thought
I would be good at,
which I've proved myself totally
wrong,
is spotting when people
are being duplicitous or being
..or lying, and I've been rubbish
so far and I'm really disappointed,
to be honest with you.
But I'm not going to stop trying.
OK, don't.
Here's my My fear is that
we are being manipulated
in a way that we have been
repeatedly round this table,
because what I've started to
try to notice, or take notice of,
is who are the initiators
of the discussions
that lead to people getting five,
six, seven votes round this table?
And the person who seems to be most
skilled at that is you, Joe.
And it does remind me
of the first day and Niko,
and you've spoken a lot today
about Mark, and you might be right,
but in some ways,
the number one thing
a Traitor needs to do
is to build up a head of steam
that leads us like sort of lemmings
off a cliff
to rush at one person and start
believing in this narrative,
and you're really, really good at it
and you do it with more energy
than anyone round this table.
Are you a Traitor?
No, I'm a Faithful.
So I'll address the Niko one
for you. Yeah.
That was because
I'd just been steered towards Niko,
had not thought of it, by Kate.
In all honesty, Kate,
one thing I've found Yes.
..is that I think you don't tend to
want to talk about kind of game play
at all and I sometimes notice
sort of a real reticence
I don't think that's true.
I think that I ask constantly.
That makes people think that you're
trying to discuss it and lure them.
Mm. The only thing that I would say
is that you never seem to bring
anything to the table.
You're always asking everybody else
what they think.
Yeah, that is a fair point
and I don't feel I have been sure,
which I realise is very poor.
I think it's tricky cos it's
day five and we need the Faithful
to kind of unite and get behind
Of course we do, of course we do.
And without any names
being shared
Do you want me to share now?
Yeah. Yeah. Oh, OK.
Well, I have thought about you,
Nick.
Yeah. Even though I witnessed your
absolutely fear of being m*rder*d,
which I also share Quite.
..none of that's very helpful.
I haven't thought about you, Cat.
Maybe I've made a terrible mistake
about that,
but I have thought maybe because
I've relied a lot on Jonathan
..you've been incredibly honest
about saying when you've heard,
like, my name's been heard,
or other
..and I've found that really useful,
but then I've questioned,
"Am I being played?"
Can I do it, then? OK. Yeah.
David, my theory is,
rightly or wrongly,
that I feel like
at least one Traitor or maybe two
will try and stay under the radar
for as long as possible
and then start popping their head
up, and I feel that's the pattern
that you're doing at the moment.
It sort of started
in the kitchen earlier
and you were talking about Joe.
Now you're actually sort of
starting to g*n for people
and that was what
I was kind of waiting for.
I think the reason that I'm more
vocal and have different views today
is because I do think that we are
underestimating how much
the Traitors are thinking,
"How do we cause chaos
and divert attention?"
We dismissed the idea that Ruth
had been k*lled off by Jonathan -
which was a theory
that was doing the rounds -
because it would look so obvious
and that Jonathan couldn't be
a Traitor cos that was so obvious.
But if anybody, I think,
has got the audacity
and understands the game
well enough to see that,
to take the risk of that double
bluff, it would be Jonathan.
That Well, OK, for a start
JOE M:I didn't dismiss that.
Yeah, and I don't think we do
dismiss it, we discussed that.
I voted for you last night
We discussed it very briefly.
But here's I would say,
if I was a Traitor and I
When my name come up
from me saying something
about being in an alliance, I've
thought back on that unequivocally.
No-one who plays the game is going
to say, "We're an alliance."
Cos there is a stage where you're
going to have to look at everyone
and if you were to say that,
that's going to come out anyway.
But I don't think you'd say it
and mean it.
I think you might well say it.
It would be a stupid thing to say.
It would be a stupid thing to say
if you mean it.
It would be a stupid thing
to say, anyway.
because it's going to come up
like that.
Can I just
I'd love to know what Cat thinks.
Yeah, come on. Sorry, Cat, I don't
mean to put the spotlight on you.
No, no. Um, sometimes
I struggle to come forward.
No, that's OK. Um, I think
..it is kind of between you
and Jonathan.
STEPHEN:No, it's not between us.
You do know there are three?
Yes, but I do think it's important
that if you have an idea
on at least one But you must have
thoughts about the other two?
I mean, after just listening,
I am looking a little bit at you,
David.
I have noticed you're more, like,
forthcoming now and
Around now would be the time
to kind of do that
to make everybody sort of see you
as somebody that's here
and is adding something
to the group.
The reason that I feel more forceful
is because we've utterly failed.
Tonight, I think the momentum
is against Mark,
because that's been the dominant
conversation that I've heard,
because I do think
we're being manipulated,
and by the time we get to here, the
narrative has already been built.
Isn't this just a
convincing argument? Yeah.
But this seems, like, weird.
Like, we're saying this effect
is a negative.
We've got to have an argument
that we go, "That's so compelling,
"I can't vote anywhere else." Yeah.
Everything you're saying,
I think is exactly
what a Traitor would say
to stop me doing what we're doing
and what we're here to do,
so I'm so in. I'm sorry, I'm so in.
But the argument would be
The argument is if I stay quiet
tonight, all the heat was on Mark,
so how do I benefit myself
by making this argument?
I've also heard Stephen's name
mentioned a lot as well.
The finger of fate to fall on me.
So why don't you think
it's going to fall on Stephen?
Do you think that we're fearful?
I think it might. I think it's less
clear tonight. I thought you.
Yeah, I know. You always have. Well,
not always have. The last two
And you know I voted for you, too.
Yeah, I know you did. Yeah.
Please don't make the mistake
of voting for me
because I really don't want you to
see what happens when I stand there
and tell you that I'm a Faithful.
It would just be
another blow for you.
But also, I do see the point
that we've got to pile up the votes
in order to get somebody off.
But I don't want to start
a pile-on for Mark.
I just I'm frustrated,
I might be completely wrong,
but I do not want to start That's
your theory, that's your argument,
and if people agree with you
If you want to agree, then fine.
..take that
and if they agree with me
Whatever argument you most believe.
Simple as that.
I will make one last gasp here.
I am a Faithful.
I am, and I really don't want us
to vote out another one.
I am a Faithful. Trust me.
Players, the time for talk is over.
Oh, God! Here we go. Oh, no!
This is horrible.
It is time for you to write down
the name of the person
you believe is a Traitor.Oh, God!
Stephen, we'll start with you.
Who do you believe is a Traitor
and why?
Well, I've put David.
Somehow, to me,
there's less of a ring of truth
than there used to be,
but I adore him
and I don't want him to go.
Thank you. Joe Wilkinson.
I've said you, David, cos of
the sort of pattern of behaviour,
but you're a lovely man.
Celia.
Well, this is a bit tricky because
I've got a bit of a crush on you
right now, but I've put you,
Jonathan,
because I think you have the
chutzpah and brilliance
to be a Traitor.
Jonathan.I've changed my vote
because even though I think my
arguments against Stephen were,
I think, compelling and they're
worth listening to,
at the same time,
I think Joe's argument against David
struck me as being more believable.
I'm sorry, David, I voted for you.
David.
I voted for Stephen.
Because he's a genius.
I think he's playing the game
with all of that genius.
So, a vote count.
Three for David,
one for Jonathan
and one for Stephen.
Nick, who do you believe
is a Traitor and why?
Um, I'm so sorry, Kate,
I have voted for you.
There's just something about that
we're on day five now
and I don't feel that you've
necessarily sort of put names
forward as much as others. OK.
Alan.
Mark.
I was trying to be bold and
that's how I feel.
Mark.
I voted for Kate.
Kind of for the same reasons
as Nick,
about the not bringing anything
to the table and, you know
Kate.Um, Mark.
I hadn't heard your name today,
I'd heard Jonathan's and Stephen's,
but I believe what they said more
and I heard more arguments
against you.
Joe Marler.
I'm sticking with my gut
and I think it's you, Mark.
So, a vote count.
Three for David,
three for Mark,
two for Kate,
one for Jonathan,
and one for Stephen.
Lucy.
I can't even look at you, Mark
cos I voted you. Sorry.
Cat, you have the deciding vote.
If you vote for Mark,
he will be banished.
If you vote for David,
it will be a tie.
So then, Cat,
who do you believe is a Traitor?
Um Ahem!
My vote
..is for you, David.
Ah!
Oh!
So, players, we have a draw.
Oh, my God. David, Mark,
you both have four votes each.
You do not leave the Round Table
until somebody is banished.
I will ask for a final plea
from both of you
and then everyone will vote again.
Oh, my God! You two will
be excluded from the vote.
If there is still a draw,
your fate will be decided by chance.
EXHALES
So, first, the plea from David.
My plea's very simple. We decided
we'd play the game differently
and that's what I've done.
And that's been misinterpreted
by Joe Wilkinson
as some sort of stealth tactic.
By trying to make get us
to think more deeply,
I've got four votes,
so why will I have done that,
when quite clearly,
as you can see from the votes,
the momentum was against Mark?
This was not the night,
if I were a Traitor,
to put my head above the parapet.
Thank you.
Mark, please now plead your case.
I love this game.
I don't think there was ever
anything wrong with pointing out
that I never wanted to be a Traitor.
I don't think there was anything
wrong with, as me,
being frustrated that we got
a fourth Faithful in a row.
I play this game with all my heart
and what you see is what you get.
I'm not putting on an act.
I came here, yes, to win, but to win
as a Faithful, and that's what I am.
David and Mark,
thank you for your pleas.
I hope that has helped
the rest of you.
There will be no discussion.
It is now time to vote.
You will be voting
for either David or Mark.
Please now write the name
on your slate.
Jonathan, we'll start with you.
Who do you believe is a Traitor
and why?
I'm sorry, David,
I haven't changed my vote.
I still think it's a compelling
argument against you
and I don't believe
Mark is a Traitor,
not on that level of evidence.
Nick.
This was really tough.
I'm so sorry, Mark,
I've voted for you.
Alan.
I haven't changed my mind.
I still think Mark is a Traitor.
Kate, who do you believe
is a Traitor?
I've stuck to my vote, Mark,
I'm afraid.
Joe Marler.
I've gone with Mark. I've stuck
with my original decision.
Lucy.I've stuck with Mark.
So, a vote count.
Five for Mark, one for David.
Cat, who do you believe
is a Traitor?
I stuck to my decision as well,
stayed with you, David.
Stephen.
Eloquent as your reasoning was,
it wasn't enough,
so I've stuck with you, David.
Joe Wilkinson.
David.
Oh, my God! So, a vote count.
Five for Mark, four for David.
Celia, you have the final vote.
If you vote for Mark,
he will be banished.
If you vote for David,
it will be a tie
and their fate will be decided
by chance.
Oh, my God!
So then, Celia
..who do you believe is a Traitor?
I voted for you, David.
So thenOh, my God!
..players, it is still a draw.
Oh, my God!
Therefore, we will now leave this
banishment to the hands of fate.
Has this ever happened before?
It's never happened.
Oh, my God!
