Celeb Traitors #2. Who will blink first under Claudia’s stare, will Alan crack under pressure and how good does Mark Bonnar look in a kilt?

[CarefulN0w]

And who will be the first to be banished from the table?

It was weird the way she latched on to that and didn’t let go. Fairly obviously JR didn’t mean “I’ll never vote for you”. Clare made the point that alliances were easier if you knew people, they said they didn’t know anyone, he basically said well now you know us so that’s good. Just friendly chit chat before he even was a traitor.
I know she was right in the end, but I think JR would have voted for Niko even if he wasn’t a traitor. So I think she was lucky rather than smart to work it out.

Yes, the first time we saw it that is exactly how I understood the conversation, the second showing reinforces that and Clare was doing the same thing. I do think Ruth misunderstood or misremembered.

Clare made a big tactical error by banging on about this and then never backing down. When you attack someone that hard in the room you start to draw suspicion to yourself. She would have been a lot more effective if she had been willing to say “that is how I remember it” and giving it a rest before returning with another point.

My prediction

Wossy banished
They recruit Nick
Various Faithful get murdered
Alan Carr banished
Recruit Joe Wilkinson
Final remaining Faithful is Joe Mahler
He falls for Joe Wilkinson's convincing insistence that he is faithful
The traitors - Cat/Alan/Joe M - take the lot.

It's very specific but I'm throwing my hat into the ring.

You've said Alan goes and he takes the lot with cat and joe

sorry but have you ever visited Uppingham (the town, home of Fry’s Alma mater). The school dominates the town, the privilege on display is eye-watering.

I did.

Typo.

I meant Nick
Prediction stands!

He probably didn’t think of it in the moment but “I’m Wossy! I was trying to put you at your ease, I literally chat shit for a living!” would have looked less suss than getting into an argument about what exactly he did or didn’t say.

I mean just because RB apologised
doesnt mean he
meant it. JR does seem annoying but nothing lile
rapist RB.

I think Cat will to before Alan. Also Alan is much more machiavellian than he lets
on!

I don't like either of them. We didn't know that about Brand at the time either. Anyway, point is JR didnt show remorse for bullying Andrew Sachs.

On wiki, it states the Andrew Sachs had received and accepted written apologies from both Ross and Brand.

Georgina said she didn't get an apology from JR.

But Andrew Sachs did, and accepted it. He was the one they were tormenting.

I think he genuinely doesn’t remember saying anything of the kind. But still better to say ‘will if I did, I was just being nice’ I suppose

Yes, they did to Andrew but Georgina deserves one too for being slut shamed.
That's misogynistic behaviour.

Whichever way you look at it, you are not going to convince me to like Jonathan Ross. He is playing a good game so far on Traitors, but I still don't like him.

I'm not trying to convince you to like Jonathan Ross. You said he never apologised to Andrew Sachs. I had to google what the thing even was, and it took me to wikipedia which contained the information that he sent a written apology that was received and accepted by Andrew Sachs.

I see. I misremembered from Georgina's interview a couple of years ago. She said JR never apologised, but meant to her specifically. Just because the prank was done to AS, it was Georgina's privacy that was also being violated, amd she is owed an apology too.

That's not the only reason why I don't like him, but you are clearly bothered by it enough to Google it just to prove me wrong.

That's not the only reason why I don't like him, but you are clearly bothered by it enough to Google it just to prove me wrong.

My god, I didn't google it to prove you wrong. I saw a bunch of people mentioning this thing, which I did not know about. I then read back through the thread to see what it was, and was none the wiser, but noted you asserted JR never apologised for this thing. I then typed into my search engine "Jonathan Ross and Andrew Sachs" to find out what he'd done. It had a wiki article that I then skimmed, which stated:

"In an interview, Sachs revealed that he had received and accepted written apologies from Brand and Ross."

Forgot Andrew Sachs was Manuel on Faulty Towers, so that was interesting.

The Russell Brand Show prank calls - Wikipedia

Well, the prank was played against Andrew Sachs, but he wasnt the only victim as the joke was at Georgina Baillie's expense.

Both men treated her badly from what they thought was a joke, but
the cringeworthy saga harmed her relationship with her grandfather as well as her reputation.

Anyway, there is nothing further I want to say about Sachs gate, as I'd like to get back to Traitors.

The fact that JR could even do that in the first place says a lot about him. I don’t like him either but think he’s playing a good game. I’ll be sorry when he goes .

Thanks for this as it’s how I remembered /interpretated it, I think JR was just being friendly to the people who felt they didn’t know other celebrities in the castle,
Ruth annoyed me as she seemed vindictive and quite miserable and Clare could have explained it was way before the Traitors were picked and she’s got that bossy head girl vibe even when getting things wrong,she ignored the right tune from the Banshee as well, so I’m glad they both went.
Love Alan he’s so funny, but actually like all the traitors they are making it for me, but JR knows he’s going soon.

Boston Rob turned out to be much kinder Han he first appeared though. He was a great game-player
