The die is cast, the cloaks are donned: For our five Celebrity Traitors finalist, there is one last bid for survival.
The debut all-stars season has proved itself a certifiable hit, drawing in millions of viewers and cementing itself in TV history with moments like Tom Daley’s epic, ‘flabbergasted’, side-eye and Celia Imrie farting and shrieking herself to the semi-final.
Last Thursday, Traitors, Cat Burns, 25, and Alan Carr, 49 coasted through to the grand finale alongside frantic Faithfuls, David Olusoga, 55, Nick Mohammed, 45, and Joe Marler, 35, in a tense episode packed with twists and turns.
The end of the episode brought with it plenty of surprises. Rugby star Joe impressed the nation by correctly pinning Alan and Cat as the proverbial snakes in the grass – revealing his plans to take them down to comedian Nick.
Then, as the group stood around the fire with host Claudia Winkleman they were given the simple task of proclaiming they were Faithfuls. Well, simple to everyone except national treasure Alan who burst into laughter. Not suspicious at all!
With the game still all to play for, and an extra-long finale in our future, who is the most likely to get their hands on that £100,000 charity prize pot?
Who could win Celebrity Traitors 2025?
Although Cat and Alan had done an admirable job of staying undetected until now – the jig may well be up, with the odds completely turned on their head.

According to Online Casino provider Slingo, the Faithful are ‘now storming into pole position for victory’ with 1/8 odds while the Traitors ‘have drifted all the way out to 8/1.’
‘It’s a remarkable swing, and a clear sign that the momentum has shifted,’ a representative added.
As for individual players, Joe and Nick’s secret alliance has put them in good stead, leading the way with 7/4 odds to win, with David trailing slightly behind at 5/2 – although depending on the historian’s loyalties the tide may well still turn.
Metro predicts who will win Celebrity Traitors 2025
Metro’s Senior TV Reporter Asyia Iftikhar weighs in with her theory on how the final will pan out…
I have been rooting for the Traitors from the very start, and want nothing more than for their efforts to pull through to secure the victory.
Unfortunately I think the Faithfuls will ultimately weed them out and snatch a win from the jaws of defeat.
With Nick the most trusted Faithful in the group, his loyalty to Joe’s Cat and Alan theory could prove crucial to swinging the odds in their direction.
I believe it will be easy enough to convince the group to vote out Alan, who has had plenty of suspicion cast his way already. But, the Faithfuls know there will be a third one lurking in their midst and this is where Cat is in peril.
Unless she is able to convince the rest of them that David is the final traitor, or even turn the tables on Joe himself, her association with Alan could prove her undoing.
I can already see both of them being booted out – perhaps even David as well for good measure – comfortably leading to a Joe and Nick Faithful victory.
The picture isn’t looking pretty for the Traitors, Cat and Alan, however, who are currently on the losing end of the stick with 10/1 and 12/1 odds respectively.
‘“The odds may have been slashed and the balance of power rewritten, but right now, it’s the Faithfuls who look firmly in control!’ the representative concluded.
Elsewhere, Esports Bets has also tipped the Faithfuls as ‘overwhelming favourites to win’ with Joe narrowly outpacing the others to victory at 5/4, followed closely by Nick at 6/4 odds.
And agreed that the Traitors face an ‘uphill battle’ with spokesperson, Darragh Harbinson, adding: ‘Cat Burns (3/1) and Alan Carr (5/1) face long odds heading into the last episode, but as the show has proven time and again – one bold move or perfectly timed bluff could still flip the script.’
Ahead of the finale, Alan pushed back at claims that he wasn’t ‘being real’, as one psychologist had accused him of.
‘Someone sent me a clip of a psychologist on a local radio station saying I wouldn’t do well on the show because I’m playing a role and I’m not the ‘real’ Alan Carr.
‘That’s quite a statement considering I’ve never met this lady. It seems everyone has an opinion!’ he told the BBC, making it clear he had read all the weird and wacky theories and social media reflections about his time on the show.
Celebrity Traitors finale airs at 9pm on BBC One on Thursday, November 6.
