IT’S making for great TV as the Celebrity Traitors once again appear to have evaded capture.
But you’ll be hoping you don’t make the same mistake as the Faithfuls while tackling this brainteaser.
Your challenge is to find the “traitor” among a sea of “trusted” – and you need to do it in under 20 seconds.
So will you be able to make Claudia Winkleman – the host of the beloved BBC show – proud?
The brainteaser was created by QR Code Generator, with CEO Marc Porcar commenting: “We wanted to put a playful twist on The Traitors and capture that same feeling of trying to spot who doesn’t belong.
“This puzzle does that with words instead of people.

“It’s fun, and it also challenges your attention to detail, which every good Traitor or Faithful needs.”
If you’re struggling to spot the traitor, start by diving the image into quarters.
To give you a hint, you won’t find it in the top two sections.
It’s also not hidden on the left, meaning you’ll want to take a closer look at the bottom right quarter.

Viewers will be eagerly tuning in to The Traitors as the show continues, with many deeming the Faithful the “worst in history” as they continue to blindly name potential Traitors and instead send home more of their own.
Jonathan Ross, the “big dog” leader of the Traitors, even went as far as bragging: “It’s like playing chess, but playing chess with a bunch of five-year-olds.”
While it remains to be seen who will be banished on Thursday night’s show, Charlotte Church was the latest famous face to be killed off by Traitors Jonathan, Alan Carr and Cat Burns.
She then joined host Ed Gamble on The Traitors Uncloaked to be told the identities of the Traitors, and couldn’t hide her shock as she was told about the crafty trio.
Learning about Cat first, Charlotte praised her for “playing an exquisite game”, before she branded Alan a “sneak” and said singer Paloma Faith – who was murdered in plain sight by the comedian – must have been “fuming” with her pal.
Using puzzles as a pre-sleep ritual
Dreams’ Sleep Expert, Sammy Margo, has shareed her expert advice on using brainteasers and optical illusions as pre-sleep rituals.
- Puzzle ‘pairing’ with scent
“Lightly scenting your space with lavender, chamomile or other scents while you puzzle creates a sensory link which your brain will start to associate with rest. Over time, the combination of the puzzle and calming scents may become a sleep cue in itself.”
- Try the ‘reverse puzzle trick’
“Instead of working towards completing a crossword or sudoku, deliberately stop just short of finishing. Leaving that last word or number undone, may trick the brain into feeling closure without over-engaging, avoiding the frustration that can keep you up.”
- Double it up with doodling
“If puzzles aren’t your thing, try doodling alongside them. The repetitive hand movements are soothing and combining it with a puzzle engages both logic and creativity – a surprisingly powerful wind-down for the brain.”
- Use mini puzzles as a ‘thought swap’
“Keep a pocket-sized puzzle book by your bed. When intrusive thoughts creep in at 2am, swap them for a quick and easy puzzle. It’s a gentle distraction that redirects your focus away from anxiety and back towards sleep.”
She was less surprised by Jonathan’s unveiling, and predicted he hasn’t got long before the Faithful turn on him.
Speaking about her time on the show, Charlotte credited it for “restoring my faith in celebrities”.
“To just be in the company of some extraordinary people with extraordinary stories and minds was the best bit,” she insisted.
