Miranda Hart’s Celebrity Traitors future has viewers worried after her latest theory pointed towards the wrong player.

Following last night’s (Oct 22) episode, fans fear her suspicions about Joanne McNally could put her own place in danger.

One viewer suggested they would stop watching if Miranda left. They wrote: “That’s me done for the rest of this season.”

Another feared that pursuing Joanne could ultimately leave Miranda vulnerable to the Traitors. Their plea was emphatic: “I FEEL SICK!!! LEAVE HER ALONE!!!”

But the frustration wasn’t simply about Miranda choosing the wrong suspect. Viewers believed she had come tantalisingly close to uncovering an actual Traitor.

Celebrity Traitors Miranda Hart’s floorboard theory puts Joanne McNally under suspicion

Miranda, 53, has made it beyond the halfway point of the BBC series, hosted by Claudia Winkleman. Thursday night’s episode saw the Faithful focus on fellow comedian Joanne after a mission involving blindfolds.

She believed the way floorboards moved around Joanne might offer a clue to a Traitor’s identity. That prompted Miranda to question her directly, but Joanne dismissed the idea.

Viewers, however, knew that Joanne was also a Faithful. Their frustration centred on how close Miranda might have come to identifying Maya Jama instead.

James Blunt told Maya about the suspicions circulating, and Maya said the situation was making her stressed.

Maya is a Traitor, making her the player fans thought Miranda’s investigation should have reached.

One viewer wrote: “Miranda is losing her edge, she was so close.”

Why viewers fear Miranda could leave

That same viewer suggested Miranda should have asked James whether he had heard anything from Joanne’s side during the mission.

“All she had to do was ask James Blunt if he heard anything from Joanne’s side and it would’ve pointed to Maya,” they insisted.

They also argued that the Faithful were giving their opponents too much credit: “The Traitors are succeeding because the Faithful are overestimating them.”

Some viewers predicted Joanne leaving first, Miranda realising Maya’s role, and the Traitors then removing her.

“Miranda is going to go after Joanne and Joanne is probably going to get out and then Miranda will know it’s Maya and the Traitors will kill her,” one user wrote.

However, others have imagined a different sequence: Miranda being murdered next before the next roundtable vote.

This prediction came after eagle-eyed viewers spotted Traitor Kenny about to write their next victim on the paper, which looked like he was about to write Miranda’s name.
