Celebrity Traitors fans spot huge spoiler before final of BBC show

Fans of Celebrity Traitors think the show spilled the identities of the show's finalists before it was confirmed.

The final five contestants have been revealed, with Thursday's penultimate episode (October 30) confirming that Alan Carr, Cat Burns, Joe Marler, Nick Mohammed and David Olusoga have secured their places in next week's finale.

However, viewers believe the programme accidentally gave away this crucial detail halfway through the episode.

The instalment of the BBC show saw the Traitors eliminate Celia Imrie in broad daylight before the remaining celebrities voted out Kate Garraway, leaving just five participants in the running. Between the departures, the final five - alongside Kate - participated in their latest task, where they were had to navigate through lasers to boost the prize fund.

However, one sharp-eyed viewer observed that the final five was inadvertently revealed in a single frame during the middle of the episode, reports the Mirror.

"Spoiler in the middle of episode 8," they posted on Reddit, sharing an image of Nick, Alan, Cat, Joe and David exiting vehicles whilst back at the castle.

Previously, six contestants had been shown returning in the signature black Celebrity Traitors motors - each sporting their individual casual wear. Yet, when the cars arrive outside the residence, only the final five are seen stepping out of the vehicles, all dressed in matching long-sleeved green garments and black body warmers.

It's probable that this footage was captured from next week's concluding episode, featuring the remaining five participants engaging in one final challenge.

During her departure, star Kate revealed how transformative her experience on Celebrity Traitors had been.

The star, who lost her husband Derek Draper last year after he suffered numerous complications following his Covid battle, said: "I've had a lot of years of being serious and very sad and you have all allowed me to play the most amazing game.

"But also you have allowed me to play and be silly and have fun. Every single one of you, I am going to take away an idea and a new kind of life."

She then confessed: "I have and always have been totally myself. A Faithful."

Following the show, Kate expressed that she had "so much fun". She added: "We were really into it and obviously we're raising money for charity.

"Personally, I just felt genuinely lucky to be involved. Because, you know, it's the first one. There's been so much chat about it, and I never thought that I'd be included, so I was just like a wide-eyed kid in a candy shop for at least three days."

Celebrity Traitors airs on BBC One.
