Viewers have been left on the edge of their seats once again after Celebrity Traitors revealed a dramatic double plot twist for the penultimate episode of the show.
The series, which concludes on Thursday 6 November, has been full of twists and turns, and in Wednesday’s episode Claudia Winkleman revealed not one, but two more unexpected changes to the game.
The faithfuls finally successfully banished their first traitor as Jonathan Ross was sent packing after a very tense round table.
However, while the remaining contestants celebrated their victory, Claudia had some disappointing news as she revealed he will be the last player to reveal their identity.
She told the players: ‘You did it just in the nick of time because after tomorrow the banished players will not reveal their true identity.’

But this is not the only twist, with the next murder also set to descend into chaos as it is time for another killing in plain sight.
Instead of meeting in the turret, remaining traitors Alan Carr and Cat Burns both received individual letters.
They read: ‘Traitors, tonight there will be no secret meeting in the turret. Instead you must murder in plain sight at tonight’s dinner.
‘To do this one Traitor must toast the player you want to murder while saying the words “Parting is such sweet sorrow” followed by their name. You must do this before the night is over.’
After Alan killed Paloma Faith in plain sight at the beginning of the series, could it fall to Cat to complete this killing?
‘I can’t see you saying it?’ said Alan to Cat as they snuck away to the kitchen.
Cat then suggested that Alan pretends to be quoting the recently banished Stephen Fry as he issues the killing statement.
Speaking to the camera Alan joked: ‘I have to do all the dirty work for these traitors. I’m surprised they don’t have me up in that turret with a hoover doing some light dusting.’

Joe Marler, Celia Imrie, Cat, Alan, Kate Garraway and Nick Mohammed all voted for Jonathan after becoming convinced he was playing on the dark side, while Jonathan voted for David Olusoga and David voted for Nick.
Keeping the other contestants on the edge of their seats until the very end, as he stood up and revealed himself, Traitor Jonathan told the players: ‘I’ve got no idea what everyone is doing wrong.
‘I cannot believe you’ve done it again. I can’t believe I’m standing here for no good reason so I don’t want to be rude but you’re idiots.’
‘But I am not judging because it’s fiendish. I’m not blaming the players, I’m blaming the game. I am now and have always been throughout the game completely faithful…’
Leaving the aghast players with their heads in their hands he then dropped his bombshell saying: ‘To the Traitors!’
Joe then labelled it ‘the most ridiculous bow out ever’ while other celebrated they had finally caught their first Traitor.
After Jonathan said in a piece to camera: ‘They got me but I’m kind of relieved and I’m glad that Alan went for me as well.
‘We have been Traitors all the way through, but I’m hoping just out of honour for the departed older member of the family that they will stick together and romp off to victory!’

Then looking at Cat she said: ‘I’m not happy with you at all. You have played this really, really well.’
Cat tried to placate her friend saying: ‘Sorry Lucy.’
