Fans will finally find out whether the Traitors or Faithfuls will take home this year's cash prize

This follows a game-changing episode last week that saw the series rip up the rulebook and introduce a shocking new twist.

Instead of the usual nighttime murder, the two remaining Traitors were tasked with executing a "murder in plain sight".

After Dan's banishment, the duo received a letter revealing there would be no murder that night.

Instead, they were instructed to complete a covert task within the castle.

Linda and Minah had to find a peacock quill and use it to write the names of four fellow players on a painting.

Their chosen targets, Alexander, Anna, Fozia, and Leon, were then whisked away in the dead of night to face a chilling challenge.

Claudia Winkleman was waiting for the four players at a cemetery with a high-stakes card game called Deathmatch.

Each participant had two cards, but only one was the coveted 'life card'.

Through a tense exchange of cards, Anna and Alexander secured their safety, leaving Fozia and Leon to battle it out.

Ultimately Fozia met her end in the game, which RadioTimes have reported she felt "disappointed" by.

She added: "It was a game of chance, and it could have been any one of us that night."

After Linda's recent banishment which saw her admit "I'm not as good a liar as I thought," there is only one Traitor remaining in the castle.

The upcoming finale promises to reveal whether the Faithfuls can unmask Minah, or if she will outsmart them all and walk away with the cash prize in the end.
