With just hours to go until the The Traitors' final, who knows who the still-growing prize pot might end up with?. While Francesca, granted The Seer superpower last night - meaning she'll soon know that Charlotte is a Traitor, is the bookies' new favourite to be a definite winner, there's plenty of other Faithfuls determined to walk away with thousands.

Leanne Quigley, 28, who self-styles as 'Army Barbie' - thanks to her flaxen hair, Hollywood teeth and penchant for fuchsia pink suits - might yet be the one to watch. The former squaddie, who served for 12 years in the military before quitting in 2023, certainly has the mettle needed to hold her own when the sleuth reality show reaches its crescendo at 8:30pm tonight.

During an entire summer of filming in Scotland, the veteran kept schtum about serving for her country. Alongside her career in the Armed Forces, Leanne has also battled personal woes, including a difficult pregnancy and, while filming was taking place, her wife's breast cancer battle.

The penultimate episode of the BBC One show saw the beauty-loving mother-of-twins embark on a lucky streak during last night's mission. Gambling during a task that involved pulling a string on a toy doll's back to earn cash, she held her nerve and won £700, before deciding to take no more risks and bank the cash for the team.
