Harry Clark, the cunning 23-year-old who clinched £95,150 in the second series of The Traitors in 2024, has dropped a bombshell about the ongoing Celebrity Traitors airing on BBC One. According to Harry, the winner of the celebrity edition may have already been decided after just four episodes, with a clear path to victory laid out for one Traitor: Alan Carr.
Harry, a master manipulator who outwitted everyone in his own series, shared his strategic take on how Alan could secure the win. “Alan could have won The Celebrity Traitors in Thursday’s episode,” he told The Sun, outlining a ruthless plan that could lead the comedian straight to the final.
A Traitor’s Master Plan
Harry’s strategy hinges on Alan turning on his fellow Traitors, Cat Burns and Jonathan Ross, while strategically recruiting another celebrity to bolster his position. “I would have got Cat Burns on my side to backstab Jonathan Ross. His time is coming, and you need to throw the dogs a bone—the Faithful need a Traitor,” Harry explained. By sacrificing Jonathan, who has already drawn suspicion from the group, Alan could deflect attention and keep his own Traitor status under wraps.
To execute this plan, Harry suggested Alan recruit someone like Kate Garraway, who has faced significant scrutiny in the game. “Kate has had so much heat on her,” Harry noted, making her an ideal ally who could later be thrown “under the bus” to protect Alan’s position. The final step? Betray Cat Burns by framing her as the mastermind behind the Traitors’ schemes. This calculated move would clear the path for Alan to glide into the final undetected.
The Game So Far
In Celebrity Traitors, Alan Carr, Jonathan Ross, and Cat Burns were recruited as Traitors by host Claudia Winkleman. The trio has been working together to deceive the Faithful, but Jonathan has been the only one drawing significant suspicion. Despite his name coming up at the latest roundtable, he survived, and Clare Balding became the third celebrity banished, following Niko Omilana and Tameka Empson.
Meanwhile, the Traitors have “murdered” three celebrities—Paloma Faith, Tom Daley, and Ruth Codd—leaving the game on a tense cliffhanger as the fourth murder looms. Alan and Cat, however, have managed to fly under the radar, positioning Alan perfectly to follow Harry’s blueprint to victory.
A Winner Already Crowned?
Harry’s analysis suggests that Alan’s subtle gameplay and lack of suspicion make him a frontrunner. By leveraging strategic betrayals and alliances, Alan could manipulate the game to his advantage, just as Harry did in his own series. If Alan follows this “easy” route, the comedian could already be on his way to being crowned the winner of Celebrity Traitors.
