BBC Traitors fans ‘heartbroken’ as Diane’s fate is finally revealed

Claudia Winkleman was inundated with messages as she shared a very clever 'next year' message with her fans and followers following the final of The Traitors. The end of the BBC One show provided a spectacular 70 minutes of television as the traitors and faithfuls battled it out to the end.

Season two of The Traitors has officially come to a close, and what a dramatic and eventful series it has been. Following the grand finale last night, viewers watched Army Engineer Harry Clark take home the £95,000 cash prize as he was revealed to be a Traitor.

After four nail biting weeks of intense subterfuge and skilful gameplay, The Traitors finally found their winners, as Harry took home the win in a surprise turn of events. At the start of the grand final, just five contestants remained in the competition, Faithfuls Evie, Mollie and Jaz — alongside Traitors Harry and Andrew that had been hiding in plain sight - but which of them would come out triumphant? The final night before the banishment kicked off, the group sat down together one final time to enjoy a last meal together, where they each opened up about what they would spend the prize money on, should they win.

It's the series on everyone's lips at the moment - The Traitors' has been dominating the second halves of our weeks recently. After a month-long run, all the backstabbing and deceiving comes to an end tonight (Friday January 26).

As the grand finale of The Traitors creeps ever closer to its dramatic conclusion, host Claudia Winkleman has revealed the one moment on set that left her and the crew “physically shaking.” The 52 year old host, who swapped the Strictly Come Dancing ballroom for the presenting gig on the whodunnit-inspired gameshow for the second year running, opened up about her time on set on Thursday evening’s edition of The One Show, 25 January. While chatting to hosts Lauren Laverne and Alex Jones, Claudia admitted there wasn’t too much she could say about the show while it was still airing, as she didn’t want to ruin the magic for viewers at home so close to the final - or to give the game away to viewers who may not even have started watching the show yet at all.

With just one more episode left to go until The Traitors declares the series 2 winners, the penultimate episode of the series bid farewell to another two contestants, Jasmine and Zack. Things first got off to a bumpy start when Zack was murdered by The Traitors in cold blood, just minutes into the show, despite having been directly responsible for having uncloaked Ross’ treachery the night before.The loss of such a devoted Faithful completely blindsided the remaining contestants, especially as he had been so instrumental in uncloaking the Traitors so far, however Zack’s loss meant that the pool of potential suspects had narrowed considerably.

Since The Traitors kicked off earlier this month, we've been getting to know the contestants hoping to walk away with the huge cash prize. Jasmine Boatswain is one of the Faithfuls hoping to weed out the last of the remaining Traitors ahead of the final on Friday, 26 January. Away from the show, hosed by Claudia Winkleman, it looks as though Jasmine goes by a different name.

The Traitors star Brian has mocked his "stupid moment" which saw him banished from the show. Brian was eliminated despite being a Faithful after a comment he made aroused suspicion among his fellow contestants.

BBC producers are going all out for the Traitors on Friday with a new reunion special. The final episode of the BBC One murder show will see the remaining Traitors and Faithfuls battle it out to win the prize fund.

A celebrity edition of The Traitors is allegedly being considered by the BBC, following the huge success of series two of the murder-mystery reality show. The Traitors, hosted by Claudia Winkleman, 52, returned to screens in January with a second series, which has proven to be even more successful than the first series, with around four million people tuning in to watch each episode.

Fans of The Traitors appear to have already picked their winner, and are hoping he'll win "solo", after Wednesday's edition of the thrilling BBC show saw fan-favourite Diane 'murdered' and Traitor Miles uncloaked and banished. The unexpected development came after his fellow Traitor Paul orchestrated the discovery of his poisoning, something which lead to Miles being voted out of the Scottish castle. As the players thanked Paul for revealing Miles as a Traitor, Paul broke down in tears and put on an Oscar- worthy show - however, fellow Traitor Harry wasn't impressed.

If there's a stand-out star from series two of The Traitors, it's Diane Carson - the 63-year-old retired teacher who's charmed fans with her no-nonsense attitude on the show, her secret family relation to fellow contestant Ross and her abrupt copper bob. Viewers of the BBC One show watched last night as Diane became the latest of the Faithful contestants to be 'killed' by the Traitors in the game, being 'murdered' in plain sight by Miles in a fittingly camp fashion - with a glass of fizzy rosé. While the fan-favourite loved filming the show over several weeks, she revealed in an exclusive chat with OK! that her friends grew concerned during her time away - as she'd left her husband to respond to her texts.

Fans of The Traitors have said 'how cruel' as they didn't know whether to laugh or cry over one particular detail in Diane's 'funeral' scenes. It was a long wait for fans of the BBC One show to find out if the retired headteacher had in fact drunk the fizzy wine which would see her "poisoned and killed".
