The latest episode of The Celebrity Traitors featured an exciting mission. For that, the players were divided into two teams.

They were asked a series of questions, which the Traitors had already answered previously. If the answer turns out to be correct, that team wins a point. The losing team would face the danger of being murdered.

Team leaders were Alan and Jonathan. After three questions, Alan's team won while Jonathan's team was in danger. Additionally, the show host announced a £5,000 addition to the pot after everyone worked together as a team.

The Celebrity Traitors Episode 6: Players face a series of questions in the latest mission

The latest episode featured the remaining ten contestants moving forward in the game. They were called to proceed further with the latest mission. The prize pot was at £38,500, which could be even higher if the participants were to work together.

Everyone arrived on a huge chessboard, where the show host was waiting for them. Soon, The Celebrity Traitors' host, Claudia Winkleman, revealed the mission:

"Last night, the Traitors were asked a series of questions, all relating to you. Your job is to match your answer to the one you think the Traitors gave. This giant chess piece will land on the correct name. I wanna say this to you: the Traitors know the answers. Of course they do."

She added:

"So keep your eyes peeled. If you all take part, I will add a lovely £5,000 to the prize pot."

She then told everyone that they would be split into two teams. Players were notified that the losing team would be up for murder later that night.

Everyone discussed whether anyone had an idea as to how they should split into two teams. One of the Traitors, Alan Carr, confessed to the cameras:

"I thought it would be a good idea with me, Kate, and Jonatha to stay in the same team, and then we will know all the answers. So, we got all the answers right. And then the other team would be shieldless. And we could just pick-off who we wanted."

After they got themselves divided into two teams, the show host asked whether everyone was happy with their team. While most of them said yes, The Celebrity Traitors star Joe said no. It was because he felt that the opposite team had more Traitors. They were divided again. Team leaders were Jonathan and Alan.

  • Team Jonathan: Nick, Lucy, Kate, and Stephen,
  • Team Alan: Cat, Celia, David, and Joe.

The first question was who they thought was the weakest player in the game. Both teams said Kate. The show host asked Kate to stand next to her. The rest of the players were instructed to go on their names on the chess board.

The Celebrity Traitors host asked the Traitors' chess piece to reveal the answer. To everyone's surprise, the huge chess piece started to move. It went up to Kate's name and stopped. With a correct answer from both teams, they both earned one point.

The second question was:

"Who is the most two-faced player in the game?"

Both teams, again, had the same answer. It was Celia. The chess piece also stopped on Celia's name. The score was tied.

For the third question, both teams had to choose one player who would answer. Jonathan's team chose Nick, while Alan's team chose Joe. When on the chessboard, The Celebrity Traitors' star Nick whispered to Joe that he would let him win.

"Who is the leader of the pack?" asked the host.

Nick chose Jonathan, and Joe picked Stephen. The chess piece moved to Stephen's name and stopped. It meant Joe's answer was correct. As a result, Alan's team won.

Nick, Lucy, Kate, Stephen, and Jonathan were in danger of being murdered. The show host also announced a £5,000 addition to the prize pot.
