BBC The Traitors once again has the nation talking, and the latest banishment victim, Ross Garshong, has broken his own silence on his elimination, which has sparked some controversy.
Viewers knew that Mr Garshong was indeed a Faithful, but one twist about the sales executive and personal trainer was only revealed after his exit.
Fellow Faithful Ellie Buckley dropped a shocking piece of information after Mr Garshong was voted off the show - that she was, in fact, his girlfriend.
Talking to the BBC following his banishment, Mr Garshong revealed he had actually suspected Ms Buckley of being a Traitor.

Surprisingly, he stated that keeping the secret had been very easy to do.
"Hiding the relationship with Ellie was the easiest thing ever," the 37-year-old confessed.
He continued: "Any time we had an interaction, I was happy to see her because I was under pressure the whole time, so Ellie was my safe space in the game.
"However, I thought she was a Traitor, because every time we had a moment together, she would not speak to me."

Despite his suspicions, he gushed over his girlfriend's performance in the series, adding: "I'm very proud of her though, and I'm glad she’s still in there holding it down for the household."
On his relatively early exit, he reflected: "It's bittersweet. I thought to myself, ‘Would you rather stay in longer and be in the background, or would you rather burn bright and go out in a blaze of glory?’
"And I genuinely feel like I did. I'm really happy with myself; I don't think I could have done any better."
Following his exit, he was backing his partner all the way, stating he "of course" hoped she'd go on to win.

"I am Ellie's biggest fan boy, so yes, I hope she goes on to win," he added.
"She has all my support in the world, and she has the potential to go all the way. I just also hope she does something to redeem me - I don’t want my death to be in vain."
Mr Garshong's exit fanned the flames of an already-growing debate in this series about eliminations and alleged "unconscious bias".
Social media users further discussed this in the comments of Celebrity Traitors star Cat Burns' post after she said she was "mad" following the banishment.

The singer starred in last year's celebrity edition, competing as a Traitor alongside Alan Carr, who eventually won the series.
Fans gave their view in the comments under her post, with one Traitors viewer writing: "RIGHT! Also why did everyone ignore the painting? Like no one really brought up an actual piece of evidence and dissect who was there." (sic)
"I'm livid!" another penned, while a third fumed: "I know... Really annoying!!!!"
Some argued, however, that there were logical reasons for the latest banishment, with one adding: "I liked Ross but he was set up and with the whole Netty thing there were always doubts. Hoping Jessie wins." (sic)
