"We urge anyone who believes they have uncovered the outcome of the celebrity edition to hold whatever they believe they know to themselves," the statement said.

"Please avoid posting any spoilers so that the millions of fans who have been closely watching every twist and turn of the show can enjoy the finale this night."

This celebrity version is presently the top-rated TV show of the year, with an mean of 12.6 million viewers across the first four episodes.

Viewers of the show have been waiting to see whether traitors the traitors will secure the £100,000 prize for a good cause or whether faithfuls the faithful contestants will be victorious.

A former winner of the third season of the show commented that "no one likes spoilers", which are "joy's enemy".

He said he will be sitting down to view the finale tonight live, with all of his family and "a bucket of popcorn".

Thursday night's concluding installment is lengthened to 70 minutes on BBC One, with an extended edition of the companion show set to air on the secondary channel after the finale.

Host the host will be joined by the cast and the co-host as they react to the show's outcome.
