Jonathan Ross is beginning to arouse suspicion in The Celebrity Traitors – but it’s not been enough to get him banished so farThis article contains major spoilers for the latest instalment of The Celebrity Traitors.
It looks like Jonathan Ross’ days on The Celebrity Traitors could well be numbered, as more and more of his fellow contestants are starting to suspect that he’s secretly on the dark side.
That being said, though, if the “Faithfuls” actually want to get him out, they’re going to have to pick up that chalk and vote for him at some point.
Wednesday night’s instalment saw several members of the cast privately confiding in one another that they suspect the talk show legend is a “Traitor”, with some going as far as taking their suspicions to his face.
Even fellow “Traitor” Cat Burns initially threw out Jonathan’s name at the round table, claiming she felt torn between him and Stephen Fry.
However, when push came to shove, Jonathan proved once again to be the King Of Misdirection, with only Celia Imrie putting his name down as a suspected “Traitor” during the first round table vote of the episode.
As a result, many viewers found themselves shouting the same thing at their TV sets as the “Faithfuls” once again failed to act on their commonly-held suspicions…

Worst faithfuls ever. They keep banging on about Jonathan Ross, then they vote out some random person who no one has mentioned. #traitors

Joe Marler keeps telling everyone Jonathan’s a traitor but then votes for literally anyone else at the round table #CelebrityTraitors

Joe Marler was really clever in coming up with his war theory, and pinpointing Jonathan
He’s now trying to be too clever in not voting for who he thinks is a traitor, because he wants to get out a different traitor, which is dumb #CelebrityTraitors#celebritytraitorsUKpic.twitter.com/7ENJtKEKwU

Bloody hell! At this point Alan & Jonathan could run through the castle naked screaming they were traitors & they still wouldn’t get voted off #CelebrityTraitorspic.twitter.com/Zu8W7wVm9E

The traitors don’t even have to be good at this point. Jonathan pretty much outed himself twice and they’re still not voting him 🤣 #CelebrityTraitors

How are none of these people voting Jonathon ???? I don’t understand #TraitorsUK#traitors

I dont understand these lot, Jonathan has been constantly brought up outside the round table and it’s like they forget he’s there when it comes to the voting #CelebrityTraitors

These guys are so bad at this game fr!
Like they’ve named all three traitors at least once, Jonathan several times but no one ever votes them?? Especially Jonathan. He’s got so much evidence stacked against him yet they still refuse to vote him???? #CelebrityTraitors— Carolanne (@Carolanne17_) October 22, 2025

Jonathan is now safe for at least one more day in the castle, but the same can’t be said for two of his co-stars.
In a first for The Traitors UK, historian David Olusoga and Line Of Duty actor Mark Bonnar split the vote, causing the group to have to cast them for a second time.
After this proved to have the same result, the episode ended on a cliffhanger, when Claudia Winkleman teased that the decision of whether David or Mark would be banished would be left “up to chance”.
The Celebrity Traitors continues on Thursday night at 9pm on BBC One.
