Claudia Winkleman risked throwing The Traitors into chaos on Wednesday night as she dropped a 'jaw dropping' bombshell that could potentially change the course of the whole show.
It might still be just a week old, but The Traitors has already been talked up as the 'TV show of the year' by those who've become totally engrossed in it and all its twists and turns. The Traitors sees a a team of contestants work together to try and build a cash prize of in excess of £100,000. The big problem is that, while they might all want to earn as much money as possible, three of the team are actually Traitors, having been chosen to be so by Strictly star Claudia on the first day of filming.
The usually jovial presenter also had some bad news for two of the group Amos and Kieran, within minutes of them arriving on location at a Scottish castle. Their first mission was to rank themselves in order of who was most likely to win and, after graciously putting them at the end of the line, Claudia gave Amos and Kieran their marching orders before the real game had even started.

Their co-stars and viewers at home were gobsmacked by the savage move, but some fans have been speculating ever since that we'd see the two men again. And their suspicions proved to be correct as, midway through Wednesday's dramatic episode, they were introduced back into the show in shcki8ng circumstances.
For their latest challenge, the Faithfuls and the undercover Traitors headed to a church where a congregation awaited them wearing some sinister looking masks. After the task was over, Claudia asked two of those in attendance to stand up before they were unmasked as Amos and Kieran.
Jaws dropped across the group at the reveal before, unbeknown to the rest of the cast, the duo infirmed they were both Faithfuls, before being told by Claudia they were exempt from being banished or murdered in the first night back in the competition.
Twitter went wilds for the epic twist, with one viewer tweeting Claudia to react: "Didn’t see that coming. So delighted when Kieran and Amos were kicked out……… you little tinker." A second responded: "OMGGGG WHAT, KIERAN AND AMOS WHAAAAAT!!!!! #TheTraitors.I did not expect this AT ALL"
