Bombshell confession in The Traitors as faithfuls finally turn the screw
Faithfuls on The Celebrity Traitors began to suspect the remaining traitors after another faithful was banished, tightening the pressure ahead of the series two final. Michael Sheen confronted Maya Jama with the theory that she and Kenny were working together, while several other players offered competing suspicions.
Kenny used his special double vote to help banish Joanne McNally, who revealed as she left that she was a “hardcore faithful”; Sharon Rooney was also in danger. The traitors, Kenny, Maya and James A, then selected another person to murder, while a mission involving reunited body parts added to the episode’s darkly comic tone.
In short
- Kenny’s double vote helped send faithful Joanne McNally home.
- Michael Sheen directly challenged Maya over a possible alliance with Kenny.
- The faithfuls faced another murder as the final approached.
Explained simply
The Traitors is a competition in which contestants are secretly divided into “traitors” and “faithfuls”. The traitors try to avoid detection while eliminating players; the faithfuls must work out who is lying and vote to banish someone at regular round-table meetings.
The celebrity version features public figures, including actor Michael Sheen, broadcaster Maya Jama and comedian Joanne McNally. Players can have special powers, such as a double vote, which can affect banishments. The game’s outcome depends on whether the faithfuls identify the traitors before the final, or the traitors remain undiscovered.
