James Acaster’s Unprecedented Round Table Confession
“I’ve had a unique experience on this that no-one has had before, I wanted to be a faithful and that’s all I wanted to be. But I couldn’t just say ‘guys, vote for me.'” Every player at the table promptly wrote his name on their voting boards without requiring further explanation.
King Kenny Uses Double Vote to Eliminate Sharon Rooney
Before the round table turmoil, King Kenny wielded a special double vote power to send actress Sharon Rooney packing. The cliffhanger from the previous installment left viewers to watch Kenny choose between Rooney and comedian Joanne McNally, both of whom were faithfuls.
McNally grew teary during her departure, joking that she was premenstrual before declaring herself a hardcore faithful, bbc.com reported. Meanwhile, the remaining faithfuls faced mounting confusion as Rooney failed to appear in the breakfast dining room following her elimination.
Record Television Ratings and the Boring Them to Death Murder
Thursday night’s episode drew an average audience of 10 million viewers with a 59.9% audience share, matching ratings from episode three when actor Richard E Grant was banished, according to figures reported by Midweek Herald.
That particular episode featured the traitors—comprising Maya Jama, James Acaster, and King Kenny—executing a plan to kill Ross Kemp in plain sight by boring him to death. After spraying perfume in a room, Acaster asked Kemp if he was boring him, sealing the actor’s fate the moment he yawned.
Remaining Contestants Facing the BBC One Finale
The Sun reported that Maya Jama had previously boasted about completing the game alongside Acaster and Kenny because she believed nobody suspected them.
However, players like Sheen, Romesh Ranganathan, and Sebastian Croft intensified their investigations during the missions and round table debates. The Celebrity Traitors final airs on BBC One and iPlayer at 20:00 GMT on Friday, concluding a series that reached 10.3 million viewers last week according to broadcast data reported by The Sun.
