BBC Celebrity Traitors winner 'unveiled' as star reveals cunning game plan

*Warning - This article contains major spoilers for episode eight of Celebrity Traitors.*

Celebrity Traitors fans believe they've unveiled the winner of the series after one star revealed their cunning game plan on Thursday (October 30).

Earlier this month, Claudia Winkleman made her return to the Scottish Highlands, where 19 famous faces aimed to deceive, double-cross and stab each other in the back to secure £100,000 for their chosen charity.

Alan Carr, Cat Burns and Jonathan Ross were selected as the Traitors, with the trio swiftly setting out to eliminate as many Faithfuls as they could manage.

Jonathan became the first Traitor to face banishment on Wednesday (October 30) following the highest vote count at the roundtable.

Tonight's episode opened with Celia Imrie becoming the latest Faithful to meet her demise after Alan murdered her in plain sight during a celebration feast, reports Wales Online.

The Traitor raised a glass to his chosen target with the fateful phrase: "Parting is such sweet sorrow."

Later during the programme, Kate Garraway faced banishment at the penultimate roundtable following the highest vote tally from her co-contestants.

This leaves the final line-up consisting of Faithfuls David Olusoga, Nick Mohammed and Joe Marler, alongside Traitors Alan and Cat.

Following the banishment, Joe discreetly informed David and Nick of his suspicions that both Alan and Cat are Traitors.

"There's no hiding place round those small roundtables now, and tonight, Nick convinced me that Cat is a Traitor that has gone way under the radar the entire game," he explained.

"I think that Cat and Alan are Traitors. I think it might be both of them."

During a secret conversation with David in the corridor, Joe whispered: "This will sound really suspicious and I know you being the intelligent man that you are... I'm convinced that it's Alan and Cat.

"I'm playing a very dangerous game of remaining very close to them because I'm certain that I'm a Faithful and I'm certain that Nick's a Faithful. You're a Faithful. Just watch them."

Joe later said: "My plan involves getting really close to Alan and Cat, so they keep me in the game. And then I can try and pull the rug from under their feet last minute. Sorry Traitors, I'm coming for you."

After watching the nail-biting instalment, BBC audiences rushed to social media to voice their prediction that Joe will triumph in the series after working out the Traitors' real identities.

"Joe's gonna win," one person wrote on X (formerly Twitter), with another adding: "Faithful win. Joe has them sussed."

A third said: "Okay pack it up Joe is my winner now," with a fourth viewer similarly sharing: "Joe Marler is the new Sherlock Holmes."

Will Joe's strategy succeed? Only time will tell.

The Celebrity Traitors Final will air at 9pm on BBC One on Thursday, November 6
