When Joe Wilkinson and Joe Marler shared their intriguing Big Dog theory, it seemed plausible, and it appears one celebrity guessed the very same before the show even aired.
Jonathan Ross, who was eventually ousted from the game for being a Traitor, has shared that Ricky Gervais turned down the chance to appear on The Celebrity Traitors due to the way in which he could be voted out.
During an episode of his podcast Reel Talk, Ross said: "I had a chat this week with Ricky Gervais. He called me after The Traitors. And he was asked to go in.
"He called me because I think my name had got out there, nothing had been confirmed before we filmed it. He said, 'Are you doing this Traitors thing?' I said, 'Yeah, I'm doing it. Stephen Fry is definitely doing it, and Alan [Carr] is going in…'.
"And he said, 'I'm not doing it. The reason I’m not doing it is, I'm pretty sure that if you go in there, they're going to say it's going to have to be one of these bigger names. You're going to wind up getting voted out just because they think you’re a bigger name in the outside world.'
"So he nailed the Big Dog theory. And I said, "Well, you were right.'"
