Like I stated tonight saying I'd want 3 of them to take it but fuck it. Get as rid as many of them as you can.

#

Take what you can, give nothing back.

misty frigate
#

The lot

#

Make the soil barren

#

Blacken the sky

#

Surely nobody would risk Alexander

mild oracle
#

That's why the ending of Aus S2 was good. Broke the game ||and nobody got anything||

misty frigate
#

So so much

#

Perfect end

mild oracle
#

I think Leanne and Frankie. Bonding over being mothers and doing it for their kids.

misty frigate
#

Could be

mild oracle
#

Which is mad as she clearly should be out next.

#

Ooh will it be all green?

misty frigate
#

I'd be shocked

mild oracle
#

Absolute 0 chance. Could skip this bit

misty frigate
#

Fools all

#

Fools

mild oracle
#

That's her telling them to vote Alex

misty frigate
#

100% red isn't too common

lofty knoll
#

I think that's Alexander. Proving he's a faithful

mild oracle
lofty knoll
#

If you were the only traitor left you'd be trying to end the game would ya not

astral vale
#

Can’t they skip the rest of this pouch stuff

misty frigate
mild oracle
#

I think so

lofty knoll
mild oracle
#

Leanne has effectively won and just has to decide who she wants to share with

Jake mate run. You're next

misty frigate
lofty knoll
#

Awk Alexander

misty frigate
#

Alexander has done well to last this long

lofty knoll
#

I think they should find out there if hes a traitor or not

#

I think it adds to the emotion

mild oracle
#

No chance they are ending it here. pure greed/para

lofty knoll
#

Because he got so far and he was a faithful and they've stopped him

misty frigate
#

By rights they should leave it now

mild oracle
#

Jake thinks they are voting Frankie. Unlucky mate.

lofty knoll
#

Get Jake out

#

Frankie and Leanne to win it together

mild oracle
#

I can't believe Frankie survived being the Seer.

misty frigate
#

This season is just pure girl power

lofty knoll
#

Omg

mild oracle
#

Why? Greed that's why.

misty frigate
#

Jake is gutted

#

Silly people

lofty knoll
#

Omg

mild oracle
#

Fuck sake. That shouldn't be allowed.

misty frigate
#

Why is Jake pure shouting at Frankie? Fuck up

#

Too much chat

lofty knoll
#

I'm gonna use that in future.

#

I promise you as a mother

misty frigate
#

Chat shouldn't be allowed

mild oracle
#

Wish there was still a traitor here. Would have made it so much more tense.

Must be a great feeling for Leanne

MON LEANNE

Oooft

misty frigate

FUCK SAKE

#

Ruthless cunts

mild oracle
#

Didn't see that tbf

misty frigate
#

Me either

lofty knoll
#

There's no tension for us as viewers haha

misty frigate
#

That's girl power binned

wise drift
#

Class 😂

mild oracle
#

Thought Frankie had saved it by swearing on her kids

misty frigate
#

Feminism set back years

lofty knoll
#

As a mother couldn't even save her

misty frigate
#

Ruthless from Leanne

#

Fuck your kids, she seems to say

I loved Frankie

This is shite. Claudia revealing identities doesn't come close to the people saying it themselves.

Leanne is still so para

Leanne is shaking like dog shitting peach stones

Claudia's GREETIN man

Somebody say "oh and CHARLOTTES ENGLISH"

And Frankie's NOT A MOTHER

Sorry I'll move past the Frankie mother thing

Jake's like limmyWink

See yous all next year. Or we staying on for US Traitors which I think is on iPlayer shortly.

Jake didn't even dress smart. Just put a fucking blazer on

This is SO CRINGE

I'm watching Uncloaked but don't expect yous to hang about.

I've stuck on last nights dragons den

Sucker for a BBC 1 show

#

I've never seen it but already am turning it off because this cunt's annoying and loud

#

Reminds me of myself too much

pallid quail
#

Those two winning leaves a sour taste in my mouth. I feel they don't deserve it at all whereas people who played the game well got shafted

#

Is the US one any good this year?

misty frigate
#

Vote this bit of language

#

they need a dozen Alexander-level contestants next year

gloomy surge
#

I've just caught up, about to watch uncloaked. That was such a good finale, as good as any of the others IMO

#

Poor Alex was too nice for his own good

#

Feel sorry for Frankie too

misty frigate
#

Justice for Frankie

gloomy surge
#

Loved Alex, he's such a diplomatic, maybe he should get a job doing diplomacy or something

misty frigate
#

Alexander was doomed from the return

torpid orbit
pallid quail
#

I disliked people saying "wHy Am i sTilL heRE" all the fucking time
Love, It's cause || you're shite at this game ||

#

enjoyed this season a lot tho tbh, even Claudia was less annoying than usual

pallid quail
gloomy surge
#

It was definitely the worst start to the series out of the 3, but defo got better towards the end. I think I'm gonna have to watch the Aussie one next, maybe the US one after that

#

Are all 3 of the US series decent?

torpid orbit
#

The first was great, second was fine.

pallid quail
lofty knoll

#

Just caught up. Wanted to smash the TV every time Leanne said something about people not looking in her eyes

#

Great final episode, a disappointing pair of winners. Should have been Charlotte or Alexander

winged patio
misty frigate
#

She really could've won

#

Forced to recruit, then this seer shit

#

Alexander spent the whole show fighting for his life. Poor guy

pallid quail
uneven osprey
#

100% he seemed best able to separate himself from the game, not taking anything too personally

#

Although Charlotte seemed to be having a great time too. That bit in the finale with her and Francesca in the kitchen was so good

misty frigate
#

Although getting off the train defined him

misty frigate
uneven osprey
#

I dunno if Charlotte ever got too personal. She said "don't trust this woman" but other than that it's not like she was swearing on kids or motherhood or whatever. Just lying, just playing the game

#

The whole seer thing really was a lose lose situation for both her and Francesca. There was really no way out of it. Maybe if Francesca had been offered traitorhood or something

torpid orbit
#

Charlotte should have said, "Francesca told me in private that she doesn't even have kids!" It's all a game, baybee.

misty frigate
uneven osprey
#

Can't decide if the power itself was stupid and/or it was just unlucky for Charlotte.

#

Just thinking about scenarios:
Faithful chooses Faithful: Great scenario as there's really no gain here for either team outside of the 2 people who were involved. Maybe they're both faithful, maybe they're both traitors, there's doubt.
Traitor chooses Faithful: Similar to the first, traitor can kinda fly under the radar but there's still doubt
Traitor chooses Traitor: Again, similar to the other 2
Faithful chooses Traitor is really the worst scenario. The Faithful can't not say anything cause they'll eventually lose if the traitor remains but also with the tiny amount of doubt that this is a traitor trying to discredit a faithful or a traitor turning on a traitor it just makes sense to banish both of them just in case, as we saw.

#

They need to take a lesson from Blood on the Clocktower (similar, role deduction game) and be really careful with 100% truthful knowledge cause it's just too powerful/game breaking. In BOTC, powers can misfire for various reasons and even when they're working they almost always include a red herring, someone who's good who'll appear as evil etc., so there's always doubt.

#

But also, it's just a reality show, fuck it, it was entertaining so who cares

misty frigate
#

The seer thing is a needless complication for me. Regardless of how it went this time around

He'll be in the S4 for sure

I think I actually heard him say "yeah, I'll do season four"

misty frigate
gloomy surge
#

Can't disturb a man when he's busy levitating

winged patio
#

Imagine being 6'5" and thinking you need to get higher

lofty knoll
#

Why's he just standing on chairs lolol

#

Maybe hoping he'll be noticed haah

gloomy surge
#

As if a t--shirt in the middle of winter and a mullet isn't enough

weak pewter
#

He really is a big lad

torpid orbit
misty frigate
#

That's a stunning line up

#

Better than I'd hoped for

torpid orbit
#

Bob Mortimer was on the lists and then removed... I assume that means he's probably going to be a late addition and the surprise has been ruined 😬

misty frigate
#

Jesus Christ

#

Bob on The Traitors would be fantastic

mild oracle
#

Are we all back for Celeb Traitors tomorrow?

torpid orbit
#

I'm hoping Stephen Fry is out first, I can't stand him 😠

mild oracle
#

will be interesting to see who the traitors are, surely they wont stick 3 of the big names as traitors as it would be too obvious.

balmy elbow
#

I’m going to guess Tom Daly and Nick Mohammed as two of the traitors

#

possibly paloma

misty frigate
#

I feel like if you don't make Stephen a traitor he's out straight away

mild oracle
#

na i think with them not being strangers, there will already be relationships and a hierarchy to the game before it even starts. You see that with the US version where basically its Gameshow contestants vs Housewife cast even though there is no reason to split into factions when the traitor could literally be anyone.

#

you boil most seasons down and most nights, it is usually just a popularity contest.

#

i see a lot of the comedians getting banished early cause they'll be accused of not taking it seriously

misty frigate
#

The perceived smartest person went out first last season. Fry will have a target on him for that alone

torpid orbit
#

It's good that Lucy Beaumont is there, it'll be interesting to see someone who pretends to be stupid (her) interacting with someone who pretends to be clever (Fry).

mild oracle
#

Funny seeing Tom Daley get suspicious of Clare on Day One. They must go way back.

winged patio
#

I reckon Joe Wilkinson will last a while, but that being said isn't the whole thing just lasting a week or two?

torpid orbit
#

It's only two episodes a week, I imagine it'll be on for 5-6 weeks.

astral vale
#

Picking Stephen because “he’s so incredibly intelligent”. Can’t wait for a hot take on this when the big man is back.

torpid orbit
#

A professor saying that too, embarrassing.

mild oracle
#

Let's hope that backfires on Jonathan

astral vale
#

Absolutely love how into it Mark Bonnar is getting in the round tables.

#

Absolutely raging

mild oracle
#

Surprised Jonathan went along with the 3 potential victims for murder so easily. The hiding the shield from half the group but the other group know who has it. Law of averages means the traitors would probably know who has it.

#

That hiding the shield thing only works when 1 or 2 people know who have it.

torpid orbit
#

I really, REALLY hate the "You'd make a great traitor" patter. What does it even mean? The only person who makes a great traitor is the one who doesn't get caught. It's a stupid meaningless excuse to give to vote for or accuse someone, disguising it as a compliment.

winged patio
#

I have no reason to think you're a traitor and therefore believe you are a traitor limmyWideLlimmyWideR

misty frigate
#

How Jonathan got away with his play, I don't know

#

Madness

astral vale
mild oracle
#

Thought it was Jonathan's time but feels like they are gonna go Mark or David.

astral vale
#

“I voted for Stephen because he’s a genius”

mild oracle
#

I looked at the clock 10 mins ago thinking oh they surely aren't going to drag this out to a cliffhanger. limmyDrink

#

So what are they doing? Tossing a coin?

#

They should have just kept making them vote

#

It's funny the level of overthinking that they all do. The big dog thing is still only the best theory to go on and they keep ignoring it. The hierarchy of "celeb status" I think definitely effects the roundtable.

torpid orbit
#

Mark Mark

#

I hope they don't drag it out into a stupid game and just flip a coin.

misty frigate
#

Jonathan just keeps getting away with it

mild oracle
#

Surely can't survive this now. Although trying to think what the numbers are now, is it 5 faithfuls after the next murder? So if they actually work togethey they only need to convince 1 for a tie at the round table. Convince 2 people and they've effectively won it.

#

It would almost be silly for Cat and Alan to turn on Jonathan now.

#

If they murder Kate then either frame Nick or Joe the following night. I think the biggest curveball is they'll go for Alan after he forgot his shield.

torpid orbit
#

I can see all three winning, but it feels Jonathan might be gone next... it's been nice to have a series where the traitors don't turn on each other within the first few episodes though. I kind of wish there was a rule where traitors weren't allowed to vote for each other since that would at least be something others could use for a clue since there's literally nothing else to go on.

mild oracle
#

i always thought that was strange that when they take the oath, the traitors have to say they will keep their fellow traitors identity a secret. Cause none of them ever do.

winged patio
#

I watched... Feels like a step down after the celebrity one but the twist limmyAmazed

torpid orbit
#

Good twist. People have been wanting something like this since it started.

balmy elbow
#

it will surely only take a few days to narrow down who it is from the kill list, so then it’ll just be the other traitors trying to get them banished. I think it’s an interesting new spin on the game

torpid orbit
#

I've heard they might all be in pairs... that would seem stupid, but there are a lot of hints towards it.

mild oracle
#

Only just caught up. Nobody picked up on this?

#

Ellie is my Secret Traitor prediction

winged patio
#

I'd seen today's secret written somewhere before... There's a theory they all know each other

torpid orbit
#

I doubt it now, surely if that was the case Netty, Ben and Hugo would have said who they knew on their way out.

misty frigate
#

I forgot this thread was here

#

The amount of internet research this year has been incredible

#

Also, Stephen has made too many mistakes to last much longer

mild oracle
#

Secret Traitor was a bit of a disappointment.

#

I liked the early daytime banishment. Would be good to have that then just leave them to discuss it all day then pull them in for another one that night.

misty frigate
torpid orbit
#

It was worth trying something new, but it was disappointing. I'm sure it would have been dragged out for longer if Hugo hadn't been banished, maybe it was always going to be either until the first traitor left or it was clear who the secret one was due to eliminating everyone else by putting them up for murder.

#

Although there should have been some benefit or game involved in the traitors guessing who the secret one was at some point.

mild oracle
#

All for trying to keep it fresh but The traitors have been greatly disadvantaged this series. It's episode 5 and they've not been given a chance to do a normal murder yet.

misty frigate
#

I think Hugo' ejection forced their hand. Ideally, it should've gone on longer

mild oracle
#

I'm actually glad it ended early with it being Fiona. If it had been someone else it would have been good to last a bit longer and keep us guessing but think she was just a bit too obvious. I wrote her off cause it felt too obvious.

misty frigate
#

I think the edit was pushing us to Harriet

#

imqho

torpid orbit
#

This has to be the worst group of traitors so far, hasn't it?

misty frigate
#

Truly desperate

#

They're all doing too much. I'd have left the family tree alone once they'd stood next to it and told Reese to go away

#

Absolutely fucking maddening decision

mild oracle
#

Oh fuck

#

That has to be the daftest play I've ever seen from Fiona

#

Surely breaking the traitor vow or pledge or whatever the fuck it is they say at the start.

winged patio
mild oracle
#

Rachel protected for life if she survives the round table tomorrow

#

Fiona surely gone tomorrow

winged patio
#

Grill her in the turret not in the semi-open.. but the one who survives could be stealth for a while fter

mild oracle
#

I think Rachel is in the stronger position, Fiona just sounded like a traitor panicking

misty frigate
#

Fiona is actually the biggest idiot. Fuck me, what a stupid move

#

Without fail they mess it up for themselves

#

Every series

torpid orbit
#

Just when I thought it was getting boring 🥳 Very stupid, but very entertaining. Hopefully the next round table is a shit show.

misty frigate
#

Incredibly entertaining but they're all fucked now

mild oracle
misty frigate
#

What a fucking episode. I dare say the end was actually more shocking than Rach vs Fiona

winged patio
#

I forgot it was on limmyDrink

unkempt mirage
#

Traitors as a concept makes no sense to me but frustratingly I am addicted.

#

I wish there was a way for traitors to benefit during the missions by sabotaging them.

misty frigate
#

Which is definitely a shame

unkempt mirage
#

Yea. Just bothers me that there’s rarely really any way to get solid evidence of a traitor. It irks me beyond belief!! Yet I watch… every evening… I’m there…

winged patio
#

Apart from the occasional "in public" task (tap five people up for murder in 20 minutes kinda thing), the only way to get proof is they say something that gives it away limmyDrink

mild oracle
#

Both traitors have only been caught cause the other traitors decided it was time for them to go.

misty frigate
winged patio
#

I am behind and unable to catch up. Can someone briefly tell me what I missed. Last thing I saw was the episode where Fiona called the other Traitor a liar about the cop saying they're a cop

balmy elbow
#

There’s only one episode after that, it’s not on til weds night, if you’ve got time to watch it? feels wrong spoiling it!

torpid orbit
#

I've started watching the US one. They've done the same secret traitor thing, only the secret traitor doesn't get to know who the other traitors are either limmyDrink

mild oracle
#

The bit I'm most interested in tonight is seeing what all the people that got to meet with the traitors tell folk at breakfast. Like Matthew will need to make up 2 new questions and the answers and make them sound legit. Same with Rachel, she has to make something up that sounds like a faithful would ask but also make up an answer that sounds probable.

#

Harriet should just go in and ask "Is Rachel a traitor?"

torpid orbit
#

It seems a bit pointless since they're able to lie, I like how Matthew approached it but I wish he'd get murdered next for being cheeky.

mild oracle
#

Really hoping Harriet comes up with something good. Like a question that reveals something no matter how they answer it. I think she'll probably just go in with a similar tactic to Matthew and ask to be recruited also.

misty frigate
#

That said, Matthew has instantly made the strongest possible play imqho

mild oracle
#

It feels strong but they could just murder him the next night. I guess it depends on what he comes up with at breakfast and how he votes at the round table.

misty frigate
balmy elbow
#

I think Harriet could ask something simpler that keeps her under the radar, otherwise she’ll be seen as a threat

misty frigate
winged patio
#

What the fuck move

torpid orbit
#

Incredible that she thought there were five traitors.

balmy elbow
#

Rachel is playing an even harder game than Harry now I think, if she wins this it’ll be incredible

torpid orbit
#

All that FBI YouTube video she watched really paid off.

unkempt mirage
#

Show pisses me off

misty frigate
mild oracle
#

Stephen getting 3 right in that mission should be ringing alarm bells there.

misty frigate
#

He's on thin ice. There's a wealth of evidence that people are ignoring

mild oracle
#

It's always a popularity contest at the round table. After tonight I hope Jade wins it as a faithful.

torpid orbit
#

Why has Rachel never had any heat on her besides from Harriet? She just sits there throwing out names and nobody ever points it back at her.

misty frigate
misty frigate
winged patio
#

Knife in the face seems unnecessary

winged patio
#

I like Stephens collared shirt

mild oracle
#

Faraaz surely the only one that can be murdered tonight?

#

Ok he's just saved himself there. Final week. You got to go for it now.

winged patio
#

I'm surprised Rach is still in after the cops final message was - if I'm faithful Rach isn't

torpid orbit
#

I think Faraaz will be murdered, they probably think they're fucked either way, but if they murder him they can at least try to deflect it by saying they're being framed.

#

If they don't they haven't got anything.

torpid orbit
#

Nothing worse than "If I get murdered tonight then **** is a traitor."

misty frigate
#

Get Faraaz slashed. Now is the time to be bold

winged patio
#

Tbf if I was a traitor and Faraaz went at Rach (in this hypothetical isn't a traitor) I'd kill Faraaz, in game. Classic defence is "Would I be that stupid, this is a set up" limmyBabyBlues

mild oracle
#

I think they will get rid of Farazz, cause they only need to convince Roxy and one other person (most likely Jade) to vote James out tonight. If they do that it should be a Roxy, Jack and Jade vs Rachel and Stephen finale.

#

Matt on Uncloaked pointed out if you look at the 5 last banishments, Rachel and Stephen have voted the exact same names and that person was always the one that got banished. Really hope someone brings this up before its over.

misty frigate
#

Matty was the one watching votes. None of the remaining dullards will have paid attention

mild oracle
#

Big mistake with that murder. Roxy could have helped the traitors win it.

#

The Fyrish monument. Been there. limmySmug

mild oracle
#

Stephen switching his vote would be the best play for him right now.

#

But could look suspicious

#

Haha

torpid orbit
#

He could have got her out twice!

#

It was a silly mistake not murdering Faraaz, surely that would have framed James more, plus Roxy would have then got them to the end.

misty frigate
#

They utterly fucked it not binning Faz. It's all fucked now

#

FUCKED

balmy elbow
#

I reckon it’s Rachel that’s gone, and if she has, I think Stephen has a good chance of winning

misty frigate
#

Stephen can win regardless. I think they put a cliffhanger in because James has gone. Not having a murder is the thing that will cost them

#

Rachel has picked the shield but she's got no chance of getting to the end

#

It'll be Stephen, Faz and the one with the earring

unkempt mirage
#

As much as I think the show is stupid and I hate it. I WILL be tuning into the final.

winged patio
#

Traiful

torpid orbit
#

Good final, even though it was incredibly annoying.

misty frigate
#

Best possible ending for me. I'm thrilled

mild oracle
#

Yeah Stephen basically had the game in his hands. Rachel acting like she was always gonna split the win with him but that was her only choice. Stephen had the much harder choice of being greedy or splitting it. Fair play to him for sticking to his word.

torpid orbit
#

I'd have been greedy. He was given the choice between having half or having it all and went with half, crazy. He's only known these people for a few weeks, half of them will have left the WhatsApp group before the next series starts.

#

Sticking to your word doesn't pay the mortgage.

misty frigate
#

All made possible by bringing the biggest NPC Jack to the end.

mild oracle
#

Aye Faraaz should have gone for Rachel like he said he would. Changing to Stephen was daft.

winged patio
torpid orbit
#

They'll hire whoever made for the best TV! That Paul was a slimy and annoying guy, but he seems to have the biggest thing lined up out of them all and he left half way.

#

Stephen is probably making more from his IT job than he'd ever get popping up on BBC Breakfast now and then, it'd take him years to make £50k from guest TV appearances (probably nowhere near that ever).

mild oracle
torpid orbit
#

Exactly... that's why it makes more sense to take the full prize than assume you'll make that back based on random TV spots following the show limmyPoint

#

Apparently Paul is going to be the sidekick host on some game show starting soon. There was a lot of buzz around stuff he'd be doing when he left, but I think a lot of the offers didn't materialise because people stop caring about the show in the months that it isn't on.

misty frigate
#

Paul was in the TV orbit before his season though, right? I seem to recall him talking on a podcast about Traitors before he was even on it

misty frigate
balmy elbow
misty frigate
balmy elbow
#

I think Stephen will be remembered as the main character of this series. He’s the anti-Harry, winning by integrity

misty frigate
#

That's a good way to put it

winged patio
#

Chatabix

#

If I remember correctly Paul was a contestant on another show so they spoke to him about that and then encouraged him to apply for Traitors. I didn't watch that series so kept having to skip chunks/episodes of the podcast

misty frigate
#

Paul could never be my son

balmy elbow
#

Is anyone watching the Irish Traitors? I’m on episode 5 and their round tables are such a mess limmyFacepalm

torpid orbit
#

I was going to, but I find the host so annoying, so I didn't bother 😭

balmy elbow
#

haha, well yeah she’s no Claudia, but I’ve got used to it. it’s kind of different because literally everyone there is Irish (surprisingly), so you don’t get that variety of accents like on the uk version

winged patio
balmy elbow
#

yeah that’s right

torpid orbit
#

She ruined the pottery show! I don't know why all these things need a host messing around, it's the worst part of Sewing Bee too.
