A Surprising Turn of Events in The Celebrity Traitors
The Celebrity Traitors has made headlines with its unexpected twists, as three of its top stars were eliminated in the show’s second week. The BBC One hit returned for a third episode on Wednesday, following last week’s premiere that quickly became a water-cooler conversation and solidified Alan Carr’s status as a national treasure.
After Paloma Faith was the first star to be eliminated in the Scottish castle, the latest episode saw even more dramatic exits as three celebrities were sent home in quick succession. The first to go was YouTube prankster Niko Omilana, who was voted out during the first roundtable. The celebrities in his group found his profession of playing tricks on people suspicious, despite it having little connection to the castle gameplay.
Niko wasn’t the only one leaving the game. The cloaked Traitors then met under the cover of darkness to carry out their second elimination. The trio of Carr, Jonathan Ross, and Cat Burns decided it was Olympian Tom Daley’s turn to go, ending his strong run as the chairman of the Kate Garraway Suspicions Club.
