One person tweeted: "Reckon Wilf is hugely at risk now. Couldn't hide the reaction with banishing Amanda, looked so obviously guilty. And no one was looking at Amanda (apart from K) before Wilf very blatantly brought her up - surely the faithful will remember?" 

A second viewer added: "I know it's easy to say as a viewer but Wilf is so obviously guilty????" while a third wrote: "Wilf genuinely looks so guilty how does no one suspect him."

"Amanda going is all Wilf's doing. Fair play it's incredibly smart. But every time he has had his head in his hands, how can people not tell that he is feeling extremely guilty about what he is doing," wrote another.

Amanda was exposed as a Traitor on Tuesday night

One person wrote: "I adore Andrea especially but Wilf has played such a blinder he deserves to win," while another added: "Everyone hating on Wilf in #TheTraitors but he's playing the role of the traitor PERFECTLY. Love Amanda but this is how it's supposed to be done people."

A third commented: "Man alive, I'm gutted - like everyone I'm sure - that Amanda's gone from #TheTraitors. And yet, I really feel now that Wilf, in a strange way, deserves to win. He's played a risky rollercoaster game, but it’s worked. Only Maddie is onto him," while another added: "Honestly Wilf really deserves the win, he's playing it perfectly."
