Viewers saw a very nervous Leanne become frustrated as she waited to learn her fate, worried that she'd put her faith in Jake who could have been a Traitor. Luckily for her, Jake was a Faithful but he played up to her anxiety.
"You were so mean to do that at the end," she said to Jake, who went on to explain: "I just thought after all that stress it would be funny.
"I just thought if it was anyone but Leanne I wouldn't have done it, but as soon as I started doing it and I could see how angry she was getting, I thought she's going to come and punch me in a minute," he laughed.
"It felt like a lifetime," Leanne interjected, adding: "I thought when Claudia revealed that we were all Faithfuls at the end, my heart was shattered and then I look at Jake and he's like this [pulling a pleased with himself smile] and I'm like 'I've made the biggest mistake of my life'."

Gamble also asked Jake about how he felt catching Traitor Linda out on the very first day, but having no-one believe his theory.
"First of all, I was blinded by the blindfolds on for so long and I couldn't see and as soon as I got my eyesight I just clocked Linda straight away and I thought, is the game that easy?" he laughed.
"I was expecting everyone to pick up on it straight away and then everyone was like 'oh no it's just Linda," he adds.
Leanne also addressed a secret she had been harbouring throughout the series, telling her fellow players that she was a nail technician instead of disclosing her real role as a soldier in the British Army.
"Honestly it was harder than I thought," she said. "As soon as I stepped onto the platform I had Fozia asking me to do her nails and I was like 'Yeah, yeah course'. Honestly the amount of conversations people would have with me about being a nail technician.
"It threw me, I didn't think it would be a topic of conversation," she laughed.
Of the five finalists, Charlotte was the first to go, being banished at the roundtable, after Frankie the 'Seer' revealed Charlotte's true identity as a Traitor to her co-stars.
During the final ceremony Alexander and Frankie were then both banished, with Leanne and Jake unsure if they were Faithfuls or Traitors (both were in fact Faithfuls).
All episodes of The Traitors season 3 are available to watch now on BBC iPlayer. Another season and a celebrity spin-off have already been confirmed, while international versions also stream on iPlayer.
