The Circle turned all kinds of weird last night, when firm favourite Dan came face-to-face with catfish and Fifty Shades of Gray-esque flirter, Mairead.
While Dan has obviously pledged his allegiance with Kate - who is actually lovely young fella called Alex, 57-year-old mum-of-three Mairead made a B-line for Dan by posing as a brunette beauty in her 30s.
Mairead's naughty chat left viewers cringing beyond belief, but it wasn't long before Dan grew suspicious of her over-the-top flirting, and let's face it - he was right to be.
When it came to ratings, Dan found himself once again top of the class, landing a place as an influencer alongside fellow favourite Sian, meaning they had a big decision to make between them.

The influencers had to decide which player to block from The Circle and it came as no surprise that Mairead found herself in the firing line.
As with every blocking, Mairead was offered the chance to go and meet one of her fellow players face-to-face and who else did she choose but Dan the man himself.
We'll get to see exactly what went down on their little encounter tonight, but judging by this little teaser of Dan's reaction, we're expecting some serious drama and we're not the only ones who can't wait...
The Circle continues tonight at 10pm on Channel 4.
