The UK Celebrity Traitors: Season 2 (Spoiler)

This series had some incidents that are unique to the Traitor TV Series that I have seen. 

Incident 1: Richard E Grant was so excited at being made a Traitor that when he walked into the bar room, on being asked if he was a Traitor, he said yes. Not once but more than once. He eventually realised what he had done and tried to play it down, but he couldn't and was the first round table banishment. 

Incident 2: Ross Kemp at the very first challenge had a hat put on him in fun, but he was convinced he'd been murdered in plain sight. Later, his arm was touched and again, thought it was a murder. Both occasions were innocent events. Ironically, he was later murdered in plain sight, being induced to yawn without realising it. 

Incident 3: James Acaster is as honest a man as you will meet, but faced being murdered in episode two or agreeing to become a Traitor. He survived to be the most reluctant Traitor of all time. He was so faithful at heart that he flew under the radar for some time. 

Unfortunately, when someone did challenge him at the round table, he confessed to being a Traitor and told them to banish him. He may have survived had he pretended he was a Faithful, but he couldn't do it. 

It still looked like the Traitors would win, with two cunning members still undetected. However, they mistakenly didn't banish Faithful Sebastian Croft, who took the Faithfuls to a surprise victory. 

One sad late twist was Romesh Ranganathan at the end suspected James Blunt to be a Traitor over an innocuous comment. James was taken aback and then suspected Romesh as a Traitor for suspecting him. Romesh realised he was wrong and, along with Sebastian, decided to end the game. James chose to play on to banish Romesh, but was himself banished. The last three Faithfuls became two and took the win.
