The subtitles during the challenge left many fans in hysterics<\/p>\n
There was also a rare moment where presenter Claudia Winkleman’s mask appeared to slip, as national treasure Sir Stephen Fry plunged his head into the well.<\/p>\n
“Oh no, Stephen Fry is in the water, I can’t look” she said, covering her eyes.<\/p>\n
“I’m a grown man, what the hell am I doing,” said Sir Stephen after he emerged, in a quote that could sum up the entire series.<\/p>\n
Elsewhere, the celebrities’ continued inability to pick out a Traitor was the other big talking point of the night.<\/p>\n
“They’re hopeless, absolutely hopeless,” said TV critic Toby Earle.<\/p>\n
TV sports presenter Clare Balding became the latest celebrity to be banished from the castle.<\/p>\n
The 54-year-old received seven votes from her fellow contestants during Thursday’s episode, before revealing she was in fact a faithful.<\/p>\n
“What are the odds of us being so useless,” said Sir Stephen, while Winkleman urged the celebrities to do better. “Stop being so polite,” she told them.<\/p>\n
Other faithfuls – YouTube star Niko Omilana, and actress Tameka Empson – were both already voted out at previous roundtables.<\/p>\n

The younger celebs are being murdered and banished at a rapid pace<\/p>\n
Earlier in the episode, another of the younger celebrities – actress Ruth Codd, 29 – was murdered by the traitors.<\/p>\n
Codd had won fans with her cutting one-liners, and there was sadness on social media to see her go. “Icon down,” wrote one X user.<\/p>\n
Her murder comes after she raised her suspicions about TV presenter Jonathan Ross being a traitor during Wednesday’s episode.<\/p>\n
Fellow traitor Cat Burns warned that “it could backfire on you” to remove his prime suspect, but Ross replied: “Look, if I was a traitor, I wouldn’t have done that.”<\/p>\n
The words “double bluff” and “double double bluff” were bandied around throughout the episode – but in the end, Ross survived to tell the tale.<\/p>\n
“How am I still here. I’ve got to be the luckiest traitor in the history of the game,” Ross wondered.<\/p>\n
Other highlights from the show included Ross’s leopard cardigan, which Balding likened to a “Flintstones outfit”.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, comedian Alan Carr continues his transformation from giggly liability to cold-hearted killer.<\/p>\n
“Let’s get rid of her now before she poisons everyone,” he declared about poor Codd.<\/p>\n
Lucy Beaumont wondered whether her height may be a disadvantage. Sir Stephen is “too tall” for her to see his eyes and suss out his motives, she says – although she can tell you if his flies are undone.<\/p>\n
