Calling for him to receive a knighthood, one fan wrote: ‘How is he not Sir Alan Carr yet’, while others posted: ‘A true icon’ and ‘It’s Alan’s world we’re just living in it’.Â
An average audience of 11.1 million tuned in for the grand finale that saw Traitor Alan, 49, hoodwink Nick Mohammed and David Olusoga into believing he was a Faithful.
With a peak of 12 million viewers, it was the BBC’s biggest overnight audience since Gavin & Stacey’s Christmas special last year.
Viewers watched in awe and bewilderment as Alan snatched the £87,500 prize, despite his previous claims he was as bad a Traitor as series three star Linda Rands.
Alan’s surprise win came as a result of Nick, 45, and David, 55, turning on fellow Faithful Joe Marler at the last minute in a shock twist that left viewers reeling.Â
Despite Joe, 35, correctly guessing that Alan and Cat Burns, 25, were the remaining Traitors, he failed to convince the others and found himself being banished at the last minute.Â
Taking to X/Twitter during the show, viewers expressed their love for Alan as they declared: ‘The fact that ALAN has won the entire show after this moment is exactly why I pay my tv license x #CelebrityTraitors’.Â
Others added: ‘Give this man an Oscar, BAFTA and Knighthood immediately. TV moment of the year/ decade #CelebrityTraitors.’
