Spoiler alert: The first face-to-face “murder” on the Celebrity Traitors left one contestant shocked and feeling “betrayed”.<\/p>\n
The traitors’ shortlist of potential victims had been teased last week when actor Nick Mohammed, comedian Lucy Beaumont, and broadcaster Kate Garraway were invited to meet host Claudia Winkleman at a giant chessboard in the dead of night.<\/p>\n
She was selected by the traitors, comedian Alan Carr, TV presenter Jonathan Ross and singer Cat Burns, who usually get to kill in secret.<\/p>\n
Seeing the green-cloaked killers for the first time, Beaumont said: “Oh, I hope you feel terrible about yourselves.”<\/p>\n
She was then handed a note telling her she had been murdered, while Garraway and Mohammed were greeted by Winkleman who let them know they were safe.<\/p>\n
Beaumont said later: “I\u2019ve totally let my emotions cloud things and not wanting to believe that because I\u2019ve built up a friendship with somebody that they\u2019re not capable of doing it.<\/p>\n
“There was an element of like real shock and feeling quite betrayed, and also like a relief.<\/p>\n
Carr, 49, said: “Murdering face to face was so harsh, and so raw.<\/p>\n
“I feel like the Grim Reaper.”<\/p>\n
Some 19 players have been whittled down to eight so far through murders and banishments, with none of the three traitors yet being caught out by their fellow contestants.<\/p>\n
Since the UK version began in 2022, millions of fans have watched The Traitors on the BBC and it has picked up a Bafta TV Award for best reality and constructed factual programme, and best entertainment performance for host Winkleman.<\/p>\n
The format has become a global hit, with RT\u00c9 airing its own version of the show earlier tis year.<\/p>\n
The Celebrity Traitors continues on Thursday at 9pm on BBC One.<\/p>\n
