Maddy Smedley’s investigative talents may not have carried her all the way through The Traitors, but she’s back on the case, this time focusing on the Teletubbies.
The actress and care home receptionist was a breakout sensation on the recent BBC reality series, and while she struggled to persuade her fellow participants of her views, she’s not backing down now.
Maddy Marple, as she christened herself, was expelled before her idea about Wilfred Webster being a traitor could be proven, but she now has her sights set on some other elusive figures.
Maddy was walking about RuPaul’s Drag Con in London over the weekend when she videotaped herself beside two of the Teletubbies and let her followers know where she thought their allegiance rested.
She labelled Po a Faithful while labelling Laa-Laa a Traitor, however Maddy captioned the video saying she was ‘just joking’ about putting Laa-Laa in the firing line.
Fans were enthralled, with one remarking on her TikTok post, ‘Imagine banishing a Teletubbie.’
Another pointed out that ‘Wilf must be in the yellow costume’.
Someone else put their faith in Maddy, writing that: ‘I’m crying. You have such a gift of knowing who the Traitors are I believe you 100%’.
However, another person made a good point.
Maddy also said on social media that despite her best efforts she hadn’t been able to catch up with Tinky Winky and Dipsy, but had her suspicions about the former.
‘Massive Traitor,’ she wrote on Twitter.
Before being cast on The Traitors, Maddy appeared in episodes of EastEnders and Casualty.
She played a homeless woman named Rita in EastEnders, and her episode will run in May 2021.
Meanwhile, her character on Casualty was ‘someone without a womb’.
Maddy has kept audiences entertained since leaving the reality programme, lately releasing some doodles she created while under lockdown.
In one sketch, she pretended to be a call centre employee for a food company, but she used a lot of colourful vocabulary to imagine what most individuals working in customer service must go through.
The Traitors is streaming on BBC iPlayer.
