Traitors 2026

I'm not convinced Rachel's telling the truth. Does anyone know why on earth Harriet did that?

No. I’m completely baffled!

Why did Harriet basically give up? and how do the Traitors know that the person they choose tonight doesn't have a shield.

Slightly confused 🤔

They don’t know and are taking a chance that the murdered one doesn’t have a shield but my guess is that they will have one and will turn up at breakfast.Taking Matt as a traitor would have been the best bet.
Harriet had zero evidence so it was beyond bizarre unless she hated being there and just wanted to leave?

They don't. Adam is the only one without a shield, so watch this space.
Tomorrow will be quite a revelation.

I'd murder Jessie at once for being irritating!

😂
Just for that open mouth thing she does.

For a barrister used to presenting cases calmly but ruthlessly in court, Harriet lost the plot, lost her cool and became very angry. Not a pleasant sight.
I'm glad she's gone and hope her plans backfire.

Harriet lost the plot and done a 'Fiona'

Rachel told a big 'lie' about FBI training, as if!
Amanda got voted out because she told Rachel she was an ex detective causing Fiona to lose the plot just as harriet has now done..

Rachel told a big 'lie' about FBI training, as if!

Classes with a former FBI agent are available online and I think she had already said this before episode 1, so probably true.

I’ve just watched, and agree. She seemed quite unhinged. It’s a game, not life and death.

Goodness me! What an about-turn last night with Harriet! I admired her takedown of Hugo and I was keen for her to win until she went nuclear at breakfast.

In the chapel asking questions of the traitors, I noticed her voice was a little shaky and she mentioned this herself, and said it wasn't because she was nervous but because she was "so angry". But why was she so angry? As she had mentioned before, it's a game. She wasn't in court, prosecuting an alleged murderer.

Then this anger seemed to continue to brew overnight resulting in her scary explosion over breakfast which made me feel uncomfortable. No wonder Rachel admitted later that she was shaking.

Then at the round table, she seemed to have no definite points to make to back it all up. Then she started throwing other names out. It all seemed very haphazard and not at all what I was expecting from her.

I am going to rewatch it today before the next episode to see if there's anything I've missed.

Is FBI an anagram for FIB?

Does anyone know what's in the second envelope on the table at the reveal. There's always two, and they always make a point of showing the other one on the table, but never show if being opened.

I would er on the side of it being true although he/she might have not been a bona fide ex-FBI agent!
I'd rather have lessons from James Bond myself.

Good publicity though. Apparently her book sales have doubled since she has been on Traitors.

Why was she on there? Not for the money , although she claimed it was for charity, as she and her OH are multi-millionaires.

Harriet did a lot to reinforce the stereotype of the menopausal woman!!

Unfortunately with Harriet now gone that's all the older players out.

I think Rachel may be the oldest now at 40 something. I was hoping that at least Harriet would show older people in a positive way but no she went off the rails.

I have wondered for a while what the second envelope is. They always show it but its never been mentioned when they interview them or in the follow up show.

As for Harriet I couldn't believe she didn't keep her cool. If she had spoken reasonably to Rachel and others like she spoke to Hugo then there was a chance some would have believed her. Not much chance for faithful now and I doubt the traitors will recruit as they seem to have it stitched up.

I couldn't understand why she was so furious at them in the chapel. Her so called evidence was just her own impressions, nothing in actuality. I was glad that that girl stood up to her at breakfast.

I thought Harriet's attacks on Rachel both in the chapel and at breakfast were so vicious that they were embarrassing to watch. As others have said, it's a game! Anyway, I'm glad that she and Fiona have gone. You're right, Aveline, Roxy stood up to Harriet very well at breakfast and then later told some of the others how she felt. Perhaps that persuaded some of the others to vote for Harriet - she was asking for it!

I like both Stephen and Rachel and hope they get to the end and keep their promises not to turn on each other.

I like Stephen and Rachel too. I think Stephen might make it but Harriet might have poisoned others against Rachel.

Harriet's anger and over the top behaviour has put me off reading her books.
She was irrational!

Harriet lost her dignity and was nearly hysterical. She lost my respect completely.

Perhaps because she is a barrister she is used to persuading others to her way of thinking but she wasn't managing it this time so that made her furious.

Certainly, were I a victim and she was defending the accused, I would not like her questioning me in court. She is aggressive and quite vicious and, as you say, this is only a game!

I'd like to think they both make it and share the winnings.
