By rights, Jerry Hall should not still be a participant on The Celebrity Traitors. If there was any justice in the world, the traitors would have murdered her in cold blood at the very start of this Thursday’s episode. The fact they did not speaks volumes about what an absolute legend the woman is.

The crime that should have condemned her to death happened on last Friday’s show, during a mission where everyone had to be buried alive with a partner. Contestants had to choose between waiting to be dug up, or shouting the word “haggis”, which would release them but also make them eligible to be murdered. Needless to say, Hall shouted “haggis” approximately one solitary nanosecond after the game started. Nobody else shouted “haggis”. For sheer weakness in the face of adversity, she deserved to die.
