It’s a tough one but I think I would pick James to stay simply because he’s a comedian. Who doesn’t need a good laugh when you find yourself suddenly lying face-up in a coffin?

Personally, I think it will be Amol who is the one to go. James has been very vocal about his suspicions of Richard, so I think taking him out of the game would be too obvious a move.

I do love getting a little bit of insight into celebrity handwriting…

So that’s it: James Acaster and Amol Rajan are being summoned to the chapel, which means one of them will be the next Traitor and one of them will be going home.
I can’t believe it’ll be the final night for either of them – it’s hardly worth unpacking your bags for!

Are you listening to this music right now? The lyrics are very literal, aren’t they? All about killing and dying… it’s like the Halloween version of the AI-sounding songs that soundtrack Love Island.

It’s time for Richard and Maya to decide which two Faithfuls they are going to call upon… it is a bit of a shame that basically the only angle they can consider is who is going to throw the attention off Richard. He’s really shot himself in the foot hasn’t he?
Deliberation sees a number of names thrown into the mix: Romesh, Bella, Amol, and “laser-eyed” James Acaster. I’d be sorry to see any of them go so soon!

And just like that, it’s time for bed again. I do always feel sorry for the Faithfuls who have to scamper off back to their individual rooms for the night while the Traitors get up to mischief in the Turret. I would have major FOMO.

Ross’s paranoia is in overdrive! Now he thinks Leigh-Anne has laid him to rest after the Little Mix singer touched his shoulder in the bar. Sometimes a touch on the shoulder is just a touch on the shoulder…

Oh no, Ross Kemp’s paranoia is getting the better of him. The soap star is convinced that Bella Ramsey has just slyly killed him after they placed a sailor’s hat atop his head… It seems everyone is scarred after watching Alan Carr secretly murder Paloma Faith in plain sight last season.
