Celebrity Traitors ended in yet another cliffhanger on Thursday night as the Traitors prepared to murder one of their Faithful co-stars following a tense roundtable.
Chat show host Jonathan Ross, comedian Alan Carr and singer Cat Burns were seen discussing their next target at the end of the episode, after TWO more Faithfuls were sent packing in a shock twist.
The episode ended with Jonathan, 63, Alan, 49, and Cat, 25, sealing the fate of one famous face in the form of a sealed letter.
The trio of Traitors admitted they had set their sights on singer Charlotte Church, historian David Olusoga and Good Morning Britain presenter Kate Garraway.
And while it wasn't revealed who will be next to go, with host Claudia Winkleman seen delivering the fateful envelope to the mystery celeb, viewers of the BBC One competition are certain they have already got it sussed out.
Fans flooded X, formerly Twitter, with their theories, admitting they were certain it would be Charlotte, 39, who was next to be killed off.

The singer had dug into Clare Balding during the roundtable, admitting she thought the presenter was a Traitor because she had been 'drawing her attention' towards Kate Garraway.
Her argument appeared to help to convince a number of the other Faithfuls to vote for Clare, 54, who was later banished from Ardross Castle.
And Traitor Jonathan, admitted he was worried that if Charlotte then 'got a bead' of any information that pointed towards him, Cat, or Alan, she would 'run with it' and. that 'people would listen' - possibly leading to them being discovered.
Discussing their other options, Kate, 58, and David, 55, the Traitors admitted both players would be useful 'scapegoats' to pin the killings on - making it seem unlikely the trio would choose either of them.
'Well... I think tonight's murder is a bit obvious... Bye Charlotte,' one fan penned on X, as another agreed: 'I'm calling it now, Charlotte’s going.'
'It has to be Charlotte murdered by the Traitors now,' a third added, while a fourth wrote: 'I’m just gonna guess it’s Charlotte being killed next.'
'Charlotte’s getting a lot of screen time tonight,' a fifth penned, theorising that her increased screen time could be a gear up to her death.
The popular reality gameshow, which returned with its first ever instalment for famous faces earlier this month, has already rolled out four episodes since its debut.

The series has proved itself to be a big hit so far, pulling in the show's largest ever audience with 11.7 million tuning in for the launch.
The civilian version of the series previously ran on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday evenings at 9pm on BBC One, giving fans three chances to tune in each week.
But the Celebrity Traitors has only been airing twice a week, on Wednesday and Thursday nights, missing out on the coveted primetime Friday slot.
It was confirmed by the BBC earlier this week that while the civilian version normally airs for 12 episodes, the spin-off will feature nine episodes finishing on November 6 with a special 70-minute episode.
The Friday night slot has instead been dished out to comedian Alan Partridge, with his new series How Are You? It's Alan (Partridge) part of a roster of a number of comedy shows filling the slot.
Nonetheless, the BBC confirmed the show had been totting up mammoth viewing figures following its launch show last Wednesday on BBC One.
The series has broken its own viewership record, and taken over all BBC unscripted series' since 2022 to take the most-watched title.
Around ten million viewers watched the first episode of the most recent non-celebrity series of The Traitors, clocking up 5.4 million tuning in live.
