Celebrity Traitors episode reveals King Kenny as a Traitor

tvOct 16, 202646569

Tonight's Celebrity Traitors episode revealed King Kenny was recruited to the Traitors team. The episode featured a formal reveal to the newly banished, which several posts described as a highlight with one calling it "the traitors' reveal to the newly banished." Commenters singled out James Acaster's change in tone, saying he turned "from loveable ironic funnyman into haunted automaton," and praised his tenderness toward Miranda when she was sad. Ross Kemp and Jerry Hall drew attention through a week-long yawning cliffhanger, posts joked the show built tension by cutting between Miranda doing Little Mix choreography and people yawning. Joe Lycett's performance after the reveal prompted some viewers to say they loved him even more.

Almost every contestant on the Celebrity Traitors: God I'm having a great time here. Ross Kemp: I'm a bear tied to a stake. They're trying to break my mind. But they can only do that if you let them. I won't let them. I won't. I fucking will not.

Every day, James Acaster comes down less and less clean shaven, more and more bleary eyed, and no one has noticed that he is very clearly coming unstuck

Hugh jokes, but I no longer play Werewolf/Mafia on a forum that's quite friendly because the last time I played I got a bit, erm, Intense about it. It's an odd game.

Enough Of That Now5

My theory here is that Ross Kemp didn't read the email from his agent properly He thinks he's on Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins and Claudia is Ant Middleton in drag sent in as a honey trap

If we're supposedly in the 'age of authenticity' or whatever then celebrity traitors is the perfect show for it. Seeing James Acaster turn from loveable ironic funnyman into haunted automaton cos he has to lie just makes me love him more

I don't care that he's a (reluctant) traitor, James Acaster looking after Miranda when she was sad was TOO LOVELY 🥹💜 #CelebrityTraitors

The idea you could effectivley build tension in a tv programme by cutting between Miranda doing Little Mix choreography and people yawning is just extraordinary. #celebritytraitors

If you'd have told me ten years ago that the nation would be gripped on who would yawn first - Ross Kemp or Jerry Hall, I'd have thought you were crazy. #CelebrityTraitors

If Jerry yawns, Ross will suss what's going on when she doesn't appear. If Ross yawns Jerry is safe because she won't have a clue. #CelebrityTraitors
