- Sebastian Croft and Romesh Ranganathan won Celebrity Traitors, splitting the £83,000 prize between their chosen charities as the last two faithfuls standing.
- Croft revealed he had wanted to be a traitor but became a key faithful, making the tactical decision to vote out King Kenny in the endgame.
- King Kenny admitted he pre-warned Maya Jama he would vote for her, calling it a survival move after she blocked him on social media post-elimination.
- Romesh Ranganathan credited Croft for convincing him to banish Kenny, joking it diminished the personal glory of his win.
- Leigh-Anne Pinnock said she was proud of completing challenges while pregnant, including a helicopter descent in the final episode.
- The finale drew 11.2 million live viewers, with earlier episodes reaching over 15 million including iPlayer catch-up audiences.
Why it matters: The show's record viewership confirms its cultural momentum, turning celebrity performances into national talking points—Croft and Ranganathan gain public acclaim, while eliminated players like Kenny and Jama face scrutiny over their strategic betrayals despite their efforts.
