A top producer working on popular ‘stab in the back’ mainstream entertainment show has sensationally quit the programme and joined ITV. He left unannounced 24 hours after signing a new contract with the BBC to continue working on the show ‘forever.’ He reportedly signed the contract in blood and wept emotionally. Medical lawyers are now working on lab tests to establish whose blood it was, with observers said to believe it was his sleeping wife’s.


According to colleagues, the producer has a history of erratic fealty. A best friend at school said his school years were ruined when the supposed buddy exited the school gates with his arms round the bully who had tormented him for 5 years. ‘My ‘friend’ just winked and said, ‘Thanks for all that pocket money.’ To this day I still have trouble trusting pocket money’


The producer’s first wife also relayed stories of treachery. ‘He married me on the anniversary of the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact. That always stuck with me.’ She said he then filed for divorce on the anniversary of Lord Haw Haw’s first broadcast from Berlin. Finally, she blames herself. ‘I should have known not to marry a man called Salvatore Tessio.’


Like horror movie The Exorcist, which was hit with a raft of supernatural incidents during filming, The Traitors has, in like manner, suffered all kinds of personal cheating events. A general lack of trust pervades the sets and staff refuse to give up personal information, including their eye colour. ‘Everyone wears lenses which change colour at random in case the tea ladies are using facial recognition software to empty our middle class bank accounts.’ We contacted a BBC representative for comment and he is now in a relationship with my partner.







It was one of the most-watched TV programmes from the late 70s to the mid 90s. Super-fit brainiacs ran an assault course, sat IQ tests and were tested on their powers of observation. Male and female finalists were then matched in a secret breeding process modelled on the Nazi ‘Lebensborn’ programme which produced that one from Abba you didn’t fancy.


‘We had high hopes for the Krypton Kids’, a spokesman told us. ‘Fit, intelligent, observant – the three qualities you need in a master race. The mistake the Nazis made was focusing too much on appearance. As long as they were white we didn’t care’.


The first products of the breeding programme are now in their forties, but have yet to discover cold fusion or form one quarter of a global superband. Where did the programme go wrong?


‘We were too picky, we should have had thousands of couples, tens of thousands’, the spokesman said. ‘Also, the ability to remember a number plate from a brief video might not have been the superpower we thought it was.’


Critics have generally been somewhat negative about eugenics-based breeding programmes, though Nigel Farage is understood to be ‘quite interested’ in a large-scale reboot.

Inspired by the pointless money-grabbing exercise that was the fight between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson, we have been told Coleen Rooney and Rebekah Vardy have decided to stage their own boxing match.


In a move that's possibly less violent than their infamous Wagatha Christie court case, the two footballers’ wives will go toe to toe live on TV.


The TV rights to the fight – due to take place at 3am in a locked-in pub in Wigan - have been bought by Sky Sports for £1.50.


“We’re both up for it,” said an excited Rooney, who is married to one of the worst football managers in Plymouth. “And there’s no chance of either of us getting a split lip because there’s too much collagen in there.”


“She’s dead,” added Vardy. “And I’ve asked my agent to drop my phone into the sea so my training doesn’t distracted.”


Bookmakers have Vardy as the 5-1 favourite compared with 16-2 for her rival.


“To be honest, they both look so similar we could probably get away with claiming the loser had won,” said a spokesman for Padded Power.
