The Celebrity Traitors new odds revealed
A MyBettingSites.co.uk spokesperson told Entertainment Online: "The first episode of The Celebrity Traitors ended on a tense cliffhanger, leaving viewers wondering who will become the first victim of the Traitors.
"Alan Carr was chosen to carry out the task, and the group agreed their target should be a woman. This makes fellow comedian Lucy Beaumont the frontrunner to be the first victim, with odds of 1/2, followed by Paloma Faith at 2/1.
"Given Carr's friendly relationships with both Beaumont and Faith, his need to touch their face as part of his Traitor mission would appear far less suspicious than if he approached someone he didn't know as well.
