BBC The Traitors viewers were left in shock tonight as the traitors turned on one another for the first time. The nail-biting game show, hosted by Claudia Winkleman, sees 22 contestants take on challenges to add to a prize pot.
However, as viewers of the show will now know, there's a huge twist as hidden among the group are three traitors, who have been handpicked by Claudia to "murder" one of their fellow players every night. They are Amanda, Wilfred and Alyssa.
In each episode the other players, named the faithfuls, get an opportunity to banish the traitors from the game before they become their next victim, in a roundtable discussion. However, during the episode that aired on Thursday, December 8, Wilfred turned on Alyssa in a shocking move.

The decision led to many others suspecting Alyssa and subsequently voting her out, including Welsh contestant Amanda, who had the casting vote. Despite the drama, however, it was the Swansea-born estate agent who had everyone talking.
As the remaining two traitors met in the castle to discuss the latest, Amanda had a warning for Wilfred. As the pair met in their secret spot, Wilfred said of his actions: "It was a really, really rough roundtable but I knew I was going to be on the radar and I don't want to go home. The thing is Alyssa is a target for many people, the fact that she's nobody's 100% makes it difficult. And you had the casting vote so thank you."
Responding, Amanda said: "You're the stronger of the two anyway and it's a game we are playing and we are playing it to win. They needed a traitor."
There was a long pause before Amanda then said: "Wilfred, can I just tell you something? What is on the flag of Wales?"
"A dragon," he responded looking perplexed, as Amanda warned: "You throw me under the bus, that is what I will be."
Viewers flooded Twitter with their thoughts after the exchange, as one said: "OMG Amanda asking Wilfred what’s on the flag of Wales and telling him that’s what he’ll get if he throws her under the bus is possibly one of my top tv moments ever!!! She better win." And another added: "'What's on the flag of Wales?' 'A dragon.' 'You throw me under the bus and that's what I'll be' Amanda, you are and will forever be famous."
While a third said: "Amanda threatening Wilfred with an actual Welsh dragon, intense. #TheTraitors. For more showbiz and television stories get our newsletter here.
