The Traitors viewers warned over major change ahead of tonight’s final

The Traitors viewers have been alerted over a major change ahead of tonight’s eagerly-anticipated final.

Yep guys, the time is finally here - we finally get to see how this year's season - which has been packed to the brim with endless twists and turns - pans out at the final roundtable.

There are just five remaining contestants in the mix; Traitor Charlotte and four Faithfuls including Jake, Leanne, Alexander and Francesca.

Now, while many of us are beyond buzzing to watch the finale, which airs on the BBC later this evening (24 January), especially after Claudia Winkleman revealed in the penultimate episode that one of the five remaining contestants will become 'The Seer'.

Luckily for Faithful Francesca, she won the title and is set to be granted 'an extraordinary power' to find out the true identify about whether one other contestant is a Faithful or a Traitor.

"The Seer has the power to learn one other player’s identity," Claudia explained. "The Seer will invite one player this evening to a private, face-to-face meeting.

"The player that they’ve chosen will have no choice and must reveal if they are a Faithful or a Traitor. This power could turn the entire game on its head."

And in a stroke of luck, Francesca opted to 'see' Charlotte's true identity in the hopes of confirming her Faithful status - something which couldn't be further from the truth.

Now, while that upcoming interaction is definitely going to make for some proper good telly, some fans of the reality TV programme are worried that the way it's all panned out has now 'ruined' the game.

Such critics have pointed out that when Charlotte inevitably tells Francesca she's a Traitor, the pair will both come out of the meeting trying their hardest to convince the remaining three cast-mates that the other is a Traitor.

While Leanne, Alexander and Jake could believe Francesca and only banish Charlotte, they may end up being super suspicious of both parties and end up banishing them both just to be on the safe side.

And that's not the only twist as the episode will be airing earlier than its usual 9pm slot on BBC One and iPlayer.

Instead of starting bang-on the watershed, the finale episode of The Traitors will kick off half an hour early at 8:30pm and wrap up at 9:40pm.

Additionally, the spin-off show, Uncloaked, will also be broadcast earlier, and this time, on a different channel altogether.

It will be airing on BBC One immediately after the final at 9:40pm, right after the main show ends, and will go on until 10:25pm.
