Romesh Ranganathan reveals he can’t escape Celebrity Traitors talk

 
Romesh RanganathanRecap of the show on

Romesh Ranganathan spent much of Saturday's show fielding questions about his new side gig as a Celebrity Traitors star, confessing an agonisingly awkward train journey where two strangers discussed him right in front of him. "I just pretended I couldn't hear," he admitted, before chatting with Sally Traffic about his infamous "let's raise some money, guys" moment and that much-talked-about hug with Ross Kemp.

The real fun came later when Asim Chaudhry and Lenny Rush arrived to promote The Reluctant Vampire, with Asim initially refusing to come in until his pastry demands were met. Once settled, Chaudhry heaped praise on co-star Lenny Rush, calling him "a comedy legend already," while a surprise call from Tom Davis saw him jokingly accused of being "quite arrogant" on set and teased about his own Traitors obsession with Ross Kemp. Davis also plugged his Palladium show for the evening.

Elsewhere, the Smith family from Chislehurst competed in Family Three Tunes, with 11-year-old Nave's Sienna Spiro pick beating out Aretha Franklin and AC/DC to take the win — eight-year-old Leo's rock choice amused Romesh no end. Pitch Your Passion saw mechanic Edward take on ten-year-old steam train enthusiast (and Spanish speaker) Seb, with Seb's Thomas the Tank Engine-powered pitch narrowly winning listener votes.
