Celebrity Traitors season 2 results: Every murder, banishment and contestant left
Warning: This article contains spoilers for Celebrity Traitors season two
Celebrity Traitors has claimed its first victim as journalist and TV presenter Amol Rajan was murdered by traitors Maya Jama and Richard E Grant.
The second episode of the hit BBC show also saw comedian James Acaster recruited to become the third traitor.
Rajan said: “It’s game over, it’s gutting to be the first out, but James is a fantastic player, and I guess people aren’t going to suspect him, and they might suspect me.”

Acaster, who said ahead of going into the castle that he wanted to be a Faithful, said of being recruited: “I can’t believe I’m a Traitor, I’m gutted to not be Faithful anymore, I don’t like lying, but if I don’t join, then they kill me.”
All the other contestants are still in the series, with the episode ending on a huge cliffhanger during the first roundtable with Richard E Grant trying to convince everyone he was not a traitor, after accidentally outing himself in the first episode.

What happened in the latest Celebrity Traitors episode?
Following James Acaster’s return to the castle as a traitor, former Coronation Street star Julie Hesmondhalgh raised suspicions about someone being recruited, and alongside US model Jerry Hall, suspected that the comedian could have joined the traitors.
On the murdering front, the traitors will have just two options to choose from after an impressive performance from Ross Kemp in the mission meant that nearly everyone was rescued from their graves.
Jerry Hall couldn't face her time in the grave so she asked to be let out, which meant that her and her partner in the mission, professor Hannah Fry, would be up for murder.
There are plenty of eyes on former Little Mix singer Leigh-Anne Pinnock, while Ross Kemp was rather paranoid about being murdered in plain sight, twice.
But it's difficult to see a way back from Richard E Grant, who could go down as one of the worst traitors in history, even if he's given us plenty of iconic moments in the first two episodes, including asking Rob Beckett if he had a normal amount of teeth in last night's episode.
