So that\u2019s that. The only contestant to have left tonight was Miranda Hart, which stings even more than usual.<\/p>\n
One week of episodes left, everyone. This time next week we\u2019ll know who won. Hasn\u2019t it gone fast? Thanks for keeping me company tonight everyone. Have a splendid week and I\u2019ll see you back here on Thursday.<\/p>\n
Share<\/a><\/p>\n Like I thought, we were never going to find the identity of the banished tonight. It\u2019s a week-long cliffhanger. But don\u2019t be downhearted, because it\u2019s a week-long cliffhanger that will result in the banishment of a faithful, so we kind of know the outcome already.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Kenny votes for\u2026 end credits.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Round two:<\/p>\n Maya votes SHARON<\/p>\n Leigh-Annes votes SHARON<\/p>\n Acaster votes JOANNE<\/p>\n Bash votes JOANNE<\/p>\n Romesh votes JOANNE, even though he doesn\u2019t think either of them are traitors<\/p>\n Michael votes SHARON<\/p>\n Blunt votes SHARON<\/p>\n Four votes for Sharon, three for Joanne. Kenny and his double vote gets the casting say.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Joanne goes first. She says that she\u2019s a clumsy faithful, and that she\u2019s freaking out. She also says that she\u2019s a Taurus.<\/p>\n Sharon next. She has nothing else to say. She\u2019s a faithful. She has played an open game.<\/p>\n Obviously, however this goes, it\u2019s a great big win for the traitors. The actual identity of the banished person makes no difference to the big scheme of things.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Sharon and Joanne have an equal amount of votes. They both have to plead their cases again, and they don\u2019t get a vote this round. This could go either way.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Acaster votes JOANNE<\/p>\n Bash votes JOANNE. Sharon might be OK!<\/p>\n Romesh votes MICHAEL<\/p>\n Michael votes SHARON. If the next vote is for Joanne, Joanne goes.<\/p>\n Blunt votes SHARON. Oh INTERESTING. It\u2019s a draw!<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Here we are.<\/p>\n Kenny and his double vote votes SHARON. Let\u2019s assume it is over for Sharon.<\/p>\n Maya votes BASH, for no good reason.<\/p>\n Joanne votes LEIGH-ANNE<\/p>\n Sharon votes JOANNE<\/p>\n Leigh-Anne votes JOANNE. Two votes each for Sharon and Joanne.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Now Sheen questions Sharon again. And Sharon is reacting very badly to this. She\u2019s aggressively shrugging, and telling everyone to vote for her. People won\u2019t need much encouragement. But let\u2019s find out, because now it\u2019s voting time.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Next: the group rounds on Joanne, on the basis that Miranda is dead and they had a spat. Joanne responds by saying that she often forgets that this is a game. Nine minutes left.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Leigh-Anne launches a theory of her own, by trying to work out who the traitors recruited after Hannah was banished. Maya suggests that they recruited someone smart. Michael and Blunt suggests that they might have recruited a pushover. But then Bash wonders why Michael hasn\u2019t been murdered yet. This is all over the place. And if the vote is spread thin, Kenny\u2019s double vote is going to be more powerful than ever.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n As suspected, he thinks that Sharon outed herself as a traitor by overreacting. She retaliates by saying that she was just looking out for Acaster. Which she was, but she really isn\u2019t helping herself.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Kenny goes first. He mentions that Bash is acting a bit weird. Then comes Michael, the roundtable dad, who wants to figure out why Sharon reacted so strangely to the pitchfork task.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n OK, roundtable town. Let\u2019s not forget that Kenny has two votes tonight, and everyone knows about it.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Kenny takes Blunt into a room and asks about Sharon, in a clear effort to muddy the waters. Kenny is becoming a better and better traitor with every passing moment. He is terrifyingly duplicitous.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Bash rounds up Joanne and Romesh, and together they decide that James Blunt has constructed a coordinated campaign to put heat on Sharon. So now he\u2019s a big suspect. Less than twenty minutes to go in the episode and no sign of a roundtable, by the way. This is highly irregular. Something big is going to happen. Either that, or there will be an arbitrary cliffhanger before they announce who\u2019s been banished.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n In a different room, Sharon says that she adores Joanne, and that Joanne is the best thing ever. But with that in mind, she thinks that Joanne is definitely a traitor and will be voting for her.<\/p>\n
