Celeb fans back Cat to foil Faithfuls in Traitors final

- BY NICOLA METHVEN

Famous fans of The Celebrity Traitors have revealed who they are backing in tonight's final. And while there is a lot of love for Faithfuls Joe Marler, 35, and Nick Mohammed, 45 - who have worked out in a secret alliance who the Traitors are the most popular vote seems to be for one, or both, of the remaining villains.

Queen of the ballroom Shirley Ballas is on the side of the baddies. She said: "Having watched every series of The Traitors, I'm hoping either Alan or Cat can win as Traitors.

"If they go, then I would love Joe to win for the Faithfuls."

The Strictly Come Dancing head judge added: "This year's series has been absolutely spectacular and off the chart. My mother and I are engrossed in the whole thing."

Corrie star Sally Lindsay said she was backing her mate Alan Carr.

She said: "Alan, you have always been a legend since I met you 25 years ago and you have been the legend in this. You are the champion!"

Radio 2 Breakfast host Scott Mills declared: "Standout TV show of the year! Rooting for Cat Burns and Alan Carr to go all the way. We all thought Alan would be terrible, but he turned out to be the perfect Traitor and Cat is the ideal accomplice. Both very clever people and I wish them the best of luck."

Radio 1 presenter Charlie Hedges agreed: "I so badly want the Traitors to win.

"Cat has played an absolute blinder, love her! And Alan, well, he has had me in stitches from the beginning."
