Michael Sheen threatens that today will be a "living hell" for the traitors and warns he will "push and push" until they are revealed.

Wouldn't fancy my chances against him in that sort of form, to be fair.

So far, Claudia tells the room, they've discovered two traitors at a cost of 11 faithfuls.

It's enough to bring on a collective scream, though Acaster's attempt is a B+ at best.

The mercy kill strikes again.

Michael saying that he knows the traitors are nervous - they couldn't be more comfortable right now.

Breakfast arrives, and James Blunt thinks it's the final already as he arrives in a dashing suit.

Leigh-Anne is putting James Acaster's name out there, and Blunt agrees the group should just "start banishing the most innocent".

It's a bold strategy, but he's ironically right for the first time this series.

The door opens, welcoming Bash and Kenny...which means Sharon is last night's victim; what a horrible day for the Glaswegian.

"Uh oh, there's been a murder," she reflects, as she picks up her letter.

I'll be very surprised if this isn't Bash murdered.

However, Sharon, similarly to me, I think has cleared herself with how emotional she got.

You can feel when the tide starts turning at the round table.

When the herd moves there's nowhere to hide.

Even as a traitor, it's hard to see faithfuls leave... but games the game.

Surely the three traitors are in danger coming into breakfast!

They were voted the most trustworthy at the challenge last episode, so logically the three would be on the chopping block to be murdered.

This SHOULD raise suspicion.

There's a lot of emotion after that vote.

Maya's upset she's lost her best pal, Kenny's feeling the weight of his choices, Michael can't believe Kenny's changed his mind, and Sharon can't believe how close she came to a taxi out of the Highlands.

But the toll of the clock calls the traitors to the turret, and there's more difficult decisions to be made.

I really think the traitors are going to coast through here.

The only scenario I can see all three of them not surviving as a trio to the end is if Bash rocks the Maya boat like he did at the end of the last episode.

I also think Michael will be under scrutiny tonight if he survives the murder!

I'm watching tonight’s episode with my sister and brother in law, and their cat Katsu!

Very excited to see how this unfolds.

This is the first time I've seen Kenny look genuinely troubled.

After his dagger sealed Joanne's fate, he was seen wandering around the castle looking dejected.

"That was extremely high pressure, being a traitor. It's a tough gig," he said.

A swish of Kenny's dagger.

And Joanne is out.

She stands, and is emotional as she gets set to announce her status as a "hardcore faithful".

And with that, we have the first head-in-hands moment of the semi-final. Expect many more to come this episode.

WHY HAS KENNY CHANGED HIS VOTE!

It's awful to see Joanne crying, what a star.

So much tension... and they're literally choosing between two faithfuls.

That's what this game has reduced us to!

After a short recap we're immediately thrust back into the action - will Kenny's double dagger round table re-vote see Joanne McNally or Sharon Rooney packing their bags?

Cue intense shots of a full moon and menacing music...

For the penultimate time this series, we're back at Ardross Castle.

We're all raring react to tonight's semi-final, alongside former contestants Reece and Fiona - following along with us and watch live at the top of the page.

And we're set for drama straight away - as Joanne McNally and Sharon Rooney face a shoot-out at the round table to avoid banishment from the castle.

My experience of being on The Traitors was truly wonderful.

Every morning, I woke up filled with joy, happiness and a sense of disbelief that I was actually a player in the castle.

It felt almost surreal to be part of such an extraordinary experience.

And, of course, having the opportunity to be deliciously wicked was absolutely hilarious!

I LOVED being on the Traitors!

It was the most mentally taxing thing I have ever done, but also the most thrilling!

I'm buzzing for the big red ribbon to tie this series together, and hoping for another twist or two before the end!

We've drafted in round table experience to help us digest another night of treachery in the Scottish Highlands.

First up, former faithful Reece Ward. After batting off accusations at an emotional round table in series four, he nonetheless found himself murdered in episode six of the civilian series.

He's joined by the unforgettable Fiona Hughes.

She became the UK's first "secret traitor" in series four, when viewers were kept in the dark about her identity as part of a newly introduced twist.

Her anonymity allowed viewers at home to play along for the first time, to see if they would fare any better than the faithful at spotting a traitor.

As it happened Fiona also left the series in episode six alongside Reece, when she was banished at the round table.

Twenty one celebrities entered the castle. Ten remain but remember a banishment is expected within seconds of the penultimate episode starting.

Broadcaster Maya Jama, comedian James Acaster and YouTuber King Kenny are the remaining traitors.

While, actors Michael Sheen and Sebastian Croft, comedian Romesh Ranganathan, pop star Leigh-Anne Pinnock and singer-songwriter James Blunt are the clueless faithfuls.

Either comedian Joanne McNally or actor Sharon Rooney will be banished at the round table depending on the final vote cast in the last episode.

But more on that later...

And we're back...

It's hard to believe it's already been three weeks since actor Richard E Grant boldly confessed he was a traitor, putting the castle into an early spin.

Since then we've watched over eight hours of treachery, witnessing the birth of girl band "Big Mix and Little Mix", some very reluctant murdering and one extremely paranoid faithful: Ross Kemp.

As Claudia Winkleman put it best, who knew that despite travelling to some of the most dangerous places in the world, that a "beautiful castle in Scotland would finish him off".

Twenty one celebrities have been whittled down to ten. Three are traitors. But which famous faces will we being seeing in the final?

Grab your cloaks and your Claudia wigs. The semi final will start in just under an hour - at 20:00 on BBC One, iPlayer or you can press watch live at the top of the page.

You'll be able to follow along here with us, alongside some extra special Traitors guests.
