James Acaster revealed he was a Traitor at the roundtable in the latest episode of Celebrity Traitors, a move that has completely changed the game and could secure a win for the Faithfuls in tomorrow night's finale.
Acaster, who never wanted to be a Traitor, was picked to become one within moments of his arrival at the castle. He had planned never to lie, and his exit came after he faced some pressure during the episode.
A Game-Changing Exit
His departure has caused chaos among the group. Michael had named James, Maya and Kenny as his three Traitors, despite having called them the most trustworthy just a day earlier.
James did not throw anyone else under the bus with his exit, but his reveal has taught the remaining players to look at things differently. Of those at the roundtable, only three never had any heat on them: Maya, Kenny and James A.
What It Means for the Finale
The series began with Richard E Grant announcing he was a Traitor and ended with James A announcing his Traitorous ways too. Before the finale, one more Faithful will be murdered, which is expected to be a big exit.
James did not win the show, but his exit has cemented his standing as the most famous Celebrity Traitors contestant ever. As he said, "Now we've got a proper final on our hands."
