A teacher from Southampton was involved in another heated row after contestants voted off the next ‘faithful’ on The Traitors.

The intense BBC reality series is described as a test of deception, as players must work together to eliminate traitors in the hopes that only the faithful will win the prize pot.

Southampton’s Joe was convinced that doctor Kas was a traitor, managing to win over the rest of the contestants who voted to banish him at the round table.

But Kas toyed with the team once eliminated, hinting that he was a traitor until he admitted he was a faithful and walked away.

Joe – who was certain Kas was a traitor for days – had it out with fellow faithful Dan after accepting that he was wrong.

“I feel a little bit less bad now that he toyed with us at the end, but it’s still bad,” Joe said.

Dan snapped back: “He every right to do that though. He’d been targeted every single round.”

Joe then asked Dan why he ‘takes everything so personally,’ prompting other contestants to step in and suggest that everyone left the room.

Once in the hallway, Joe then spoke about how he was annoyed that Dan had ‘got on his high horse’ after the group had got another banishment wrong.

Even though viewers are told who the faithful are, many said that Kas still had them fooled when he toyed with the contestants by pretending to be a traitor at the end.

Speaking to his fellow players, Kas said: "It's been fantastic. And you're all fantastic people."

Elsewhere in the episode, the traitors murdered full-time mum Maia in a shock to fellow players.

Maia's 'murder' came the morning after her sister, Armani was banished following a dramatic roundtable when it was revealed Armani was a traitor.
