BBC viewers have already written off Alan Carr's chances on The Celebrity Traitors after the comedian suffered an immediate case of the giggles upon being chosen as one of the deceptive players.
The beloved entertainer completely lost his composure when host Claudia Winkleman revealed his selection, bursting into uncontrollable laughter that immediately blew his cover. Social media erupted with amusement as fans declared Carr the worst Traitor in the show's history before the game had even properly begun.
Instant Tell Gives The Game Away
Unlike previous contestants who've managed to maintain poker faces, Carr's transparent reaction left absolutely no doubt about his new role. His infectious giggling fit became instant viral content, with viewers taking to X (formerly Twitter) to share their disbelief at his complete lack of subtlety.
One amused viewer commented: "Alan Carr as a Traitor is the worst casting decision ever - he can't keep a straight face to save his life!" Another added: "Well, that's the shortest-lived Traitor in history. He might as well wear a sign."
Social Media Reaction Goes Wild
The public response was immediate and overwhelmingly humorous. Fans of the hit BBC gameshow couldn't believe production would select someone with such an obvious tell for the crucial Traitor role.
- "Alan Carr giggling like a schoolgirl is the most predictable thing ever"
- "They've given him an impossible task - he's incapable of being sneaky"
- "This is going to be the most entertaining failure in Traitors history"
Despite his obvious disadvantage, many viewers expressed excitement about watching the comedian attempt to navigate the deception-based game. His natural warmth and humour make him a fan favourite, even if his Traitor skills are decidedly lacking.
A Doomed Mission From The Start
Industry insiders suggest that casting Carr as a Traitor was always going to be television gold, whether he succeeds or fails spectacularly. The contrast between his bubbly personality and the required stealth of a Traitor creates perfect reality TV tension.
As the episode concluded, the question remained: can Alan Carr somehow transform from giggling giveaway to master manipulator, or is his fate already sealed? Based on viewer reaction, the verdict seems overwhelmingly clear - this Traitor's days are numbered.
