Charlotte Berman’s chance of snatching the prize-fund in The Traitors was looking shaky tonight - after Frankie Rowan-Plowden won the power to find out her true status. The twist, which came in the closing moments of the episode, threatened to undermine Traitor Charlotte’s devious gameplay, which earlier saw Freddie Fraser being banished from the castle, having only been a Traitor for less than a day. The 20-year-old politics student, who has been under suspicion since the start of the BBC show but who was Faithful until just a few hours before his exit, vowed to take Charlotte down with him. .
Branding her “snakey” for the way in which she double-crossed him over Leanne having a shield, Freddie declared: “Charlotte threw Minah (Shannon) under the bus now she’s trying to throw me under the bus. If I get banished, I get banished - but I will be taking her down with me.
Former Faithful Freddie, who admitted he’d hated “every singe second” of his short time as a Traitor because he was not a good liar, tried to send a message to the remaiing Faithful by voting for Charlotte out-of-the-blue at the last roundtable of the series.
When he was banished - and had to reveal he was a Traitor - he told the group it had been “the honour of my life” to take part in the TV series, hosted by Claudia Winkleman. For her part Charlotte laughed: “I’m feeling so evil. This is a game. It’s like goodbye Minah, hello Freddie but actually, goodbye Freddie. I feel quite proud of myself. I love being a Traitor. It’s like I’ve found my calling.”.
