Secret Plot Twist: Producers’ Double-Vote Dagger Exposes Shocking Manipulation in Celebrity Traitors

Spoiler alert—seriously, don’t say I didn’t warn you! Is it just me, or is this season of Celebrity Traitors the equivalent of watching a group of people frantically search for their glasses… while they’re literally sitting on their heads? The Faithfuls this year are struggling so much, you’d think the Traitors were invisibility-cloaked wizards, not just wily celebrities. Maybe I’m being too harsh—after all, watching Miranda Hart get ousted via turret tomfoolery and Jerry Hall float off into banishment, I couldn’t decide if I was witnessing high strategy or the world’s longest practical joke. And then, when the Faithfuls were handed a golden chance to shake things up with a ‘double vote,’ what do they do? Gift-wrap it for the Traitors like it’s Christmas morning. Tell me, have you ever wanted to scream at your TV this much? Strap in, because the twists, missteps, and accidental genius moves are only getting wilder—let’s dive into the glorious chaos.

This season of Celebrity Traitors has some of the worst Faithfuls yet – or are the Traitors just too good?

As Miranda Hart became the latest casualty of the Traitors’ turret shenanigans and Jerry Hall was banished for having her head in the clouds, it’s no secret that the Faithful are floundering more than ever.

So when some ‘divine intervention’ in the form of a ‘double vote’ was unveiled during tonight’s mission, we were all thinking finally, finally, the Faithful would be able to regain control over the game.

So what do they do? Hand the opportunity to the very people they’re supposed to be voting out.

As James Acaster said after being awarded his team were awarded the dagger, you really couldn’t write this.

Seriously, I’m starting to question whether or not there are three Traitors and seven ‘Secret Traitors’ playing at this point.

With King Kenny in charge of the double vote, the Traitors are well and truly in control of the game, and it’s something which viewers at home have picked up on.

“This is now so one-sided. They have to do something to shift the balance in the faithful’s favour,” read one reaction on X.

“These clowns giving the power to all three traitors,” penned a second, while a third noted placed the blame squarely on James Blunt, adding: “Not James Blunt thinking the three traitors are most trustworthy, he’s outwronged Joanne.”

“The three most trusted being the traitors this is incredible television,” wrote a fourth person on Reddit.

“Miranda left, and the castle IMMEDIATELY went insane and gave the traitors all the power. COINCIDENCE?” a fifth added, proving that Maya, Kenny and James A’s idea to banish Miranda may have been one of the most genius moves yet.

Can the Faithful win the game?

With the Traitors making up three of the nine remaining contestants, with either Sharon Rooney or Joanne McNally finding themselves banished, you really have to start wondering whether or not the Faithful have any chance of winning.

With Jerry Hall banished and the dagger placed in the hands of Kenny, the Faithful have shunned every advantage handed their way.

However, it’s not over yet, as Michael Sheen’s ‘strongest faithful team’ theory could provide a way back for the struggling group
