Jonathan Ross Proper Hated It
Jonathan Ross has come out saying he absolutely did not enjoy being a Traitor. The chat show host admitted that lying to everyone constantly was “uncomfortable” and mentally draining. He is one of three Traitors, alongside Alan Carr and Nick Mohammed, all of whom had to kill Paloma Faith in the first episode. It’s a little uncomfortable when you’re backstabbing people who are real-life acquaintances. He’s apparently been warning other celebrities not to do it because it messed with his head.
Alan Carr’s Having a Laugh About Murdering Paloma
Alan’s been joking about killing Paloma Faith, though they’re mates. The comedian is working out the guilt by making fun of the entire ordeal, and it’s very on-brand for him. Paloma was not overjoyed at being murdered by her best mate on national telly. He’s been joking about it on social media, and fans are loving how sassy he’s being about the whole thing.
Paloma Faith Celebrating Despite Getting Murdered First
After being the first celebrity murdered off, Paloma’s been celebrating hitting one million Instagram followers. She posted photos in a skimpy bra, looking absolutely stunning, which is quite the power move after exiting early. If you’re going to leave the show first, you might as well do it whilst your follower count’s going through the roof.
Claudia Winkleman’s Boots Have Got Their Own Fan Club
Everyone’s obsessed with what Claudia’s wearing on her feet. She’s been spotted in Givenchy Shark Lock boots that cost over a grand, Hunter wellies for the outdoor bits, and The Row’s Nobilis boots. Every fashion magazine from Harper’s Bazaar to Grazia is writing features about where to get them. The Hunter ones are £145 and actually affordable, but the Givenchy pair will destroy your bank account. Sometimes people are more interested in her wardrobe than the actual game.
Cat Burns Bringing Her Girlfriend Into It
The singer’s been open about being queer on the show. She’s with someone called Liv, and they’ve been together for a while now. Cat’s been posting about her on Instagram, and fans love seeing proper representation on mainstream BBC telly. She’s playing it quite quietly in the game so far, but she might surprise everyone.
Celia Imrie and Clare Balding Flying Under the Radar
These two have formed an alliance nobody expected. Good Housekeeping is calling them the “dark horses” of the show, and they might actually be right. Celia’s got serious acting skills that could help her spot liars, and Clare’s broadcasting background means she’s sharp as anything. They’re letting the bigger personalities have all the attention whilst they quietly plot.
The Show’s Absolutely Massive
The Celebrity Traitors started on 8th October 2025 on BBC One, and the viewing figures are brilliant.
The celebrity version’s got 19 famous faces, including Stephen Fry, Tom Daley, Charlotte Church, and Kate Garraway, all playing for charity.
The prize pot of £100,000 is going to whichever charity wins. Claudia Winkleman wasn’t even sure about doing a celebrity version at first, saying her bosses “ignored everything I said” but it’s turned out to be fantastic telly.
