BBC Celebrity Traitors fans were left stunned after another celebrity was murdered in a dramatic twist at the start of the show's season two finale.

The hit series, which drew in a mammoth 10.7 million viewers during Thursday’s semi-final has been another filled with dramatic and unexpected turns.

And as viewers were minutes away from discovering who would take the crown, the Traitors struck again, with actor Michael Sheen becoming the latest victim.

The murder would send more shockwaves through the castle, as remaining Faithfuls attempted to work out who they could trust.

Maya and Kenny were seen discussing who they'd get rid of as their final murder, marking that there was heat on James Blunt, but that Michael Sheen was also trusting of Kenny and too risky to kill off.

However in a shock twist, it was was then revealed that Sheen was the last to be murdered. This is despite Maya admitted that killing Michael would 'pin it on her'.

The bold move came a day after James Acaster dramatically admitted he was a Traitor at the roundtable in a first-ever moment on the show.

He crumbled under pressure as Michael Sheen closed in on him after going over the events that led to Ross Kemp’s murder in plain sight.

Sheen had pointed out that Acaster was the only contestant who had remained in the library during the murder.

But Sharon Rooney’s unexpected murder had already put heat on the remaining Traitors Maya, James and Kenny for the first time.

The rogue decision confused a lot of the Faithfuls the next day and as it went on, they suddenly all seemed to suspect the three Traitors.

This led to the baffling round table that saw Maya under incredible heat from a defiant Michael Sheen before James decided to throw the towel in and confess.

Now viewers have said the latest murder of Michael has put even more pressure on the remaining Traitors, branding the decision 'obvious' and 'stupid'

"These traitors are actually idiots. Why go for Michael? It’s SO OBVIOUS," one person wrote on X.

Another meanwhile fumed: "Oh you stupid traitors. Why would you murder Michael. Puts all the heat on you, and no-one to flip it back on as a last ditch to say he could be a traitor."

The rogue decision then resulted in James Blunt questioning Maya Jama and Kenny during a confessional interview and how they had escaped heat throughout the game.
