Jonathan Ross' secret Celebrity Traitors plan revealed after banishment
Jonathan Ross was the first Traitor to be rumbled last night as he was banished from the castle by his fellow contestants during last night's drama-filled episode
Jonathan Ross has revealed his secret Celebrity Traitors plan that he used on the show. The chat show host was banished from the castle during last night's episode after the contestants finally found a Traitor.
Jonathan was a Traitor on the series from the very first episode but it took the Faithfuls quite some time to find him out. He played a great game and has now said that it was down to a secret tactic that he used.
Episode one saw all of the players trying to win money for the prize fund in the Trojan Horse challenge. The contestants had to push the huge wooden horse up a steep path, which proved quite the challenge.
Jonathan has now said that even from that first episode he was trying to win the series. He has now opened up about what he did in a Q&A saying: "The Missions were fun. The only thing I felt weird about the Missions was how the Faithfuls played the game.
"This time, the Missions didn't give them anything to go on, and that was their fault, not our's, because we were just trying to hide wherever we could.
"They were all a lot of fun to do. The first one, the Trojan horse, was quite strenuous. I haven't had to work so hard since I was about 25."
He explained that he tried to appear more tired than he was to stop anyone from questioning him. Jonathan added: "However, I did overdo how puffed out I was because I realised it was a great way of hiding from them. I was at the back hoping I would get A, the sympathy vote and B, I could avoid any conversations."
Jonathan was the first Traitor to be voted out of the show in last night's episode. The Faithfuls has been struggling in previous episodes as they kept voting out fellow Faithfuls.
The presenter made quite the exit speech, trying to convince everyone he was a Faithful until the end. However, he then lifted the veil and revealed the real truth.
The star didn't hold back when it came to his exit speech, with him branding his fellow contestants as "idiots" before revealing his Traitor status.
“I’ve got no idea what everyone’s doing wrong," he told them. "I can’t believe you’ve done it again. I can’t believe that I’m standing here for no good reason I don’t want to be rude but – you’re idiots!
"I’m not judging, because it’s fiendish - I’m not blaming the players, I’m blaming the game. I am now, and have been all through the game, completely Faithful,” he insisted, as heads went into hands around the table, before he added: “To the Traitors!"
Everyone cheered that they had finally managed to catch a Traitor after weeks of not being able to. Cat Burns and Alan Carr are the two remaining Traitors in the game.
