The Celebrity Traitors finalists reflect on their most surprising fan reactions and the mixed emotions of family and friends towards the series. The celebrities have been competing for a chance to win up to £100,000 for their chosen charities, but the question remains: will the Faithful triumph over the Traitors?
Alan Carr, a finalist, shares his experience: "It feels amazing to be in the final. I didn't think I'd make it this far!" His family and friends are in shock, as they know his inability to keep a 'poker face' and his tendency to sweat when lying make him an unlikely Traitor. Despite their disbelief, Alan's family is strangely proud, which he finds odd. Fans have been supportive, with some sending memes and analyzing his every move. One psychologist's opinion that he wouldn't do well on the show due to his acting has sparked interest, but Alan brushes it off.
Cat Burns, another finalist, expresses her excitement: "It feels amazing to be a finalist. I've been a fan of the show for a while, so I backed myself, but I knew it was unpredictable." Her family and friends are proud, and they watched the first episode together, screaming with excitement. Cat is grateful for the positive reactions from fans, especially since she's a fan of the show herself.
David Olusoga reflects on his journey: "I never thought I'd make it to the final, and I probably didn't deserve it. It's a random but amazing game." His family and friends love the show, and he's surprised by the camaraderie among the players. He didn't expect to return to Scotland with 18 new friends, which was the biggest surprise for him.
Joe Marler, a finalist, is thrilled: "I didn't think I'd get on the show, let alone make it to the final!" He's competitive and wants to win, whether it's rugby, Monopoly, or a game in the garden. His big dog theory, co-created with Joe Wilkinson, led to the first Traitor's downfall, and he's determined to finish the job. His family and friends were nervous about his awkwardness, but the kids have been obsessed with the show.
Nick Mohammed shares his thoughts: "I didn't think I'd make it this far. As a Faithful, it's rare to survive, and you never know if you'll be banished." He's grateful for the support from family and friends, who have been watching the show. Nick underestimated the show's reach, but he's happy that it's a multi-generational family show that everyone can enjoy. The finalists look forward to the finale, where the Faithful will either secure victory or the Traitors will pull off a surprise win.
