Richard E Grant gave the funniest moment of the show when Romesh asked who he'd have murdered if he hadn't been banished from the Celebrity Traitors castle. "Joe Lycett, first of all, would have to be tongue clamped and tied down," he said, before admitting he fancied going for "almost everybody." He also described the moment Claudia Winkleman revealed he was a traitor as feeling like he'd "levitated inside my body," and spent much of the interview being gently wound up by Romesh over his new friendship with Jerry Hall, insisting things were "very intense from my end" despite not having seen her in months. The pair also discussed his West End run in Hay Fever and his old Withnail and I co-star Daniel Day-Lewis, who Grant said originally turned the role down.

Strictly's Josh Widdicombe rang in for a chat about his weekly spray tans, telling Romesh he'd started wearing "incredibly skimpy" paper pants to avoid a tan line, and that fellow contestant John Nellis had refused to do the same, tanning in his own boxers instead. Josh also admitted he'd had to open the paper pant packet with his teeth live on his Instagram.
