Axed The Traitors contestant's four-word jibe at co-stars after banishment

The Traitors' latest casualty took aim at his co-stars in his parting speech, as they failed to realise he was a Faithful.

Anthony was the latest Faithful to be banished on the show at the round table, as he failed to convince his co-stars he was not a Traitor. He got a number of votes to be dropped, despite him pleading with the group that they were making a mistake.

After a number of losses, he told them all not to vote for him as it would mean eight Faithfuls had been lost, compared to just the one Traitor. His pleas were not listened to though and he was voted off the show, resulting in him inevitably revealing he was a Faithful, leaving them all gutted.

But as he walked away from the show for good, Anthony made a jibe at his co-stars after proving them all wrong, pointing out their major error. He reminded them just as he had done during the round table that they were letting the Traitors win, adding a four-word dig of "let that sink in".

He'd told them all: "Well, this is indeed a wonderful game to play. Those of you that remain, I really hope that you take this opportunity to really look around you. Try and see through the fog. In this game I am and have always been 100 percent Faithful."

Before walking away from his co-stars, he concluded by telling them they were now 8-1 down to the Traitors, telling the group: "Let that sink in." It comes after host Claudia had a warning of her own for the group.

Viewers said it was clear Claudia was "disappointed", as she called the Faithfuls out for only finding one enemy, with seven Faithfuls axed prior to Anthony's exit. With them being halfway through the series, Claudia called for the Faithfuls to get on with finding the right people to eliminate.

As they sat down for breakfast they realised Tracey had been murdered overnight. After the loss of another Faithful, Claudia scolded them by saying their current record was "embarrassing". Giving a warning, she said: "I loved Tracey. Im gonna give you a tally.

"We are halfway through. You have lost seven Faithfuls and you have caught one Traitor. Seven, one. I'd say that's a bit embarrassing. Stop worrying about who has got the jam, stop worrying about how you take your coffee and start paying attention."

Then during the latest task, Claudia screamed at them repeatedly to get a move on to get the money on offer. Viewers watching at home were pretty amused, as many of them commented on host Claudia having enough of the players for failing to find the Traitors.

One viewer said: "Claudia b*****king the contestants like a teacher when it gets to GCSEs year." Another fan said: "Claudia is disappointed in them all, 7 faithfuls and only 1 traitor gone."

A third viewer commented about the scenes: "Claudia was Diane levels of stern there. Wow." as another said: "Claudia is a savage." A fifth viewer posted online: "Claudia telling off The Faithfuls for doing a s**t job half way through."

The Traitors UK series two airs Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays at 9pm on BBC One and BBC iPlayer. * Follow Mirror Celebs and TV on , , , , and .
