Why does Ross always think he’s getting murdered? Nobody’s going to murder someone with suspicion on them. It’s the likes of Miranda and Romesh who are at risk of murder.

Awww I really warmed to Joe throughout the series. He’ll be missed!

I am a musician not a detective 😂

If he thinks he's spotted a traitor he'll think he's a threat.

If I was picking a scapegoat I wouldn’t have picked super-sensitive RossKemp.
I wouldn’t be surprised if they murder him tonight, for the lolz.

Poor Miranda! And poor Joe, who I couldn’t stand before this programme but now quite like.

Fair if it was just the once but he’s constantly thinking he’s being murdered! I don’t think I’ve ever seen a more paranoid faithful.

Oh heck touching murder

It’s a shame they don’t show all that laughter and play that Miranda talks about. There’s too much “who’s a traitor” chat.

Joanne!!

I agree. He seemed very perceptive and caring, as well as funny.

Omg

You just yawn and then they’ll yawn

This is such a random murder in plain sight. I love it.

Is this in plain sight designed to give away a traitor because it's a bit bonkers!

By yawning yourself, Maya.

This is a silly concept!

Pretend to yawn and the other person will yawn back!

Oops, not RossKemp then. He’s not going to be lured into a room and encouraged to yawn. No siree!

Loving this. More ambitious then previous plain sight murders.

They could do a dance of death, a mask of the red death, a deadly nightshade (touch a lamp or something).

Ironically, James A will be the best at this.

Maya can do this.

Nope. The man's too hard to yawn.
Heck, he doesn't even blink!
😂

I hope they get caught

Maya looked like she was about to fall over.

Maya’s not good under pressure is she?
