Next Celebrity Traitors move sealed after Bash clocked Kenny’s slip-up missed by rest of Faithfuls

Last night’s (29 October) round table on The Celebrity Traitors saw James Acaster throw the towel in and confess who he really was to the Faithfuls.

But he wasn’t quite the only one to admit to being a Traitor – and I’m not talking about Richard E Grant again.

King Kenny may have also made a major slip-up. However, in all the heat of Michael Sheen charging at Maya Jama and James giving up, it seems most of the Faithfuls missed it.

Even those watching The Celebrity Traitors at home might have missed the moment in the chaos.

But it seems like Sebastian ‘Bash’ Croft didn’t, as his face showed a fair bit of confusion at Kenny’s comments. With it being the first time Maya had real heat at the round table, it was also the first time it really felt like the Traitors have lost this game. So, their only hope could be murdering the Heartstopper actor and getting Kenny to sneak through.

At the round table, the strategy started off that they’d go round and say why they thought each person might be a Traitor.

And Kenny went on to say Michael must be, partly because he should’ve been killed by now if he’s a Faithful. He’s right by the way, they absolutely should’ve killed him by now – he probably would’ve been a smarter move than killing Sharon.

“I think you would either be a great asset to the Traitors,” Kenny said. But here’s where he slipped up…

“Or as a Faithful – as a Traitor myself, I would have got rid of you already. So that’s my red flag on you.”

Now, Kenny might have gotten away with this because what he was saying did make sense and he could make out he was speaking hypothetically but it was a very odd choice of words.

And Bash’s face immediately changed as he registered it, with no one else seeming to notice. So, they might need to murder him - there's not really any other strong options.

“What is it with the contestants on #CelebrityTraitorsUK feeling the need to reveal they are #traitors?” one user joked on X.

Kenny even responded to the slip-up as he wrote: “I tweaked there ngl.”

Many point out it ‘wasn’t a slip up’ as he was simply speaking hypothetically.

“Thought he messed up and had to rewind it to get the proper context lol,” one wrote.

While another said: “He was saying if he was a traitor he would of killed Michael and since Michael isn’t dead he isn’t a traitor…”

But the thing is, hypotheticals haven’t exactly worked out this series – it’s one of the reasons Joe Lycett ended up leaving.

And at this stage in the game, at a round table when the heat was on the Traitors, it was a risky move for Kenny.

“I jumped off from my couch in shock bash seemed to make a face but then said nothing,” one wrote.

“My stomach literally dropped!”

While Michael needs to be murdered, he’s too risky a kill right now – Maya’s fate is sealed by murdering him or keeping him, it’s likely game over unless she pulls a miracle.

So, it might be time to kill Bash before he helps raise suspicion around Kenny too.
