This comes after The Traitors’ penultimate episode aired last night, with rugby player Joe Marler finally sussing out who the Traitors are.
Joe became convinced that Cat Burns and Alan Carr were the culprits after a tense round table that saw Kate Garraway dramatically banished.
He immediately pulled David Olusoga and Nick Mohammed aside to share his theory, as he believes they’re 100% Faithful.
BBC fans have seen Joe and Nick team up to try and eliminate the Traitors – with Nick even going as far as to throw the chessboard game.

But viewers have now pointed out that the Traitors made a massive mistake by murdering Lucy Beaumont on the chessboard, instead of Nick.
Some have noted that Nick stood as a bigger threat to the trio and they should have taken him out of the competition days ago.
One wrote: “Why didn’t the Traitors just murder Nick? He was already on to them.”
While a string of fans have said that David could easily ruin the Faithfuls victory.
A second posted: “It’s crazy! I thought, up until this episode, I thought there was no way the Traitors don’t win, but now, Joe and Nick have finally got it, and are pulling David to their side, and now there is hope the Faithfuls win.”
A third commented: “Joe and Nick have played different tactics and should’ve teamed up with some agreed voting, but they’re wise. David tries to be smart but is almost too smart and could screw this up.”
Another added: “Agreed, David’s really trying too hard to be some sort of mastermind. He might be clever but the show isn’t that deserving. The producers are obviously going to make the murder in plain sight at the dinner they had because that makes good TV. He’s always trying to push some other theory that is just way too far thought out.”
Elsewhere, fans are convinced they’ve already cracked the show’s dramatic ending – after spotting a huge clue in the penultimate episode.
Some viewers think next week’s final will be too predictable, that the show is “setting up for a shock.”
The episode ended with the Faithful close to getting the truth, but surely there will be other twists in store to make it a dramatic final?
Taking to Reddit, one fan wrote: “It’s setting up for a shock I feel…
“It feels quite flat with the episode ending with Joe and Nick totally confident about Alan and Cat being the traitors.
“I feel like this was only shown, before the final, which we’ll see in a weeks time, to build up the suspense with Alan and Cat taking it all.
“No way would such a brilliant series end with a predictable ending… surely not?
“Plus I think David would prefer to back concrete evidence rather than theories (as suspecting Cat is totally theory-based since she hasn’t put a step wrong), which will swing in the traitors’ favour.”
Another fan commented: “I could easily see David voting Joe out next.
“The real question is whether Cat and Alan read the game well enough to vote Joe themselves. They might be thinking David is the next vote.
“Faithful are in a good position atm… but it wouldn’t be a shock for this to still go the other way.”
Other fans are suspicious of Alan and Cat meeting in the turret when there are no more murders taking place.
One viewer said: “Why were they in the Turent? There’s no more murders.
“Unless in the final task, they might have control or insight into events that play out.”
Fans will have to wait a week to see how the final episode plays out.
