Celebrity Traitors left on a knife edge after a trip to the field of screams
Watch: Celebrity traitors' unlikely daytime reunion
Spoiler warning: This article reveals details from episode eight of The Celebrity Traitors, series two.
Original Celebrity Traitor Maya Jama, latest recruit King Kenny and now even the reluctant James Acaster - hurrah! - have developed a real appetite for murder this week.
And going into Friday's episode we knew that their collective cruel intention was to see that one of three faithfuls, Miranda Hart, Romesh Ranganathan or Sebastian "Bash" Croft, did not make it to breakfast.
When it became clear that the murdered Miranda had danced her last dance in the castle - leaving only 10 of the initial 21 players - the pressure began to mount and speculation was rife as to whodunnit and why?
The self-declared Miss Marple wannabe had been stitched up, of course. "Miranda is a good detective," noted James A in a flashback to the turret talk from the night before.
"I don't know who I'm becoming," responded Maya - who has taken to treachery like a duck to water - "but I feel it in my loins, and Miranda is the only one that makes sense."
Miranda, who had been in her element sleuthing away on the show, did not take the news of her untimely death at all well, throwing her murder note to the ground. "No! Absolutely not," she cried.
"I'm so cross with myself, I was wholly focusing on my Joanne issue," she added, with reference to her theory about Joanne McNally being a traitor. One that even Miranda herself had - unwisely - "debunked" at the roundtable.
Ending on a more positive note, the comedian, who has had health issues in recent years, reflected: "Ultimately, in my little personal story, this has been quite extraordinary that I've been able to get back and do the thing that I love professionally and do the things that I love personally.
