Anyone up for a Traitors thread?

Barbadosbelle, I too prefer the non-celeb version. No preconceived ideas.
The identity of the Secret Traitor is a fun addition. I rewatched episode 1 to see if I could work out where in the room she choose that Traitor. If she did indeed choose the Traitor during that first choosing session then I whittled it down to a possible 6, some of who have been mentioned already. I do have another theory. When she told the public about the Secret Traitor, holding the red cloak, she said, "You are the Secret Traitor". Does she mean all of us? If so how is the list chosen as we are not invited to phone in who should go. The actual names seem a bit random to me and I wonder if they are in fact 'plants' who have agreed to go. It will all get a bit more tense when the group is smaller. Perhaps the existing, known Traitors will defy the Secret Traitor and vote out their own choice, thus regaining their power.

Does anyone think that the Family Tree shown in episode 1 is important?

Could it possibly be that we have 11 'pairs' in the Castle?

Has that happened in previous series?

some of whom - correction.

No, that's what made me wonder if the Family Tree was important, could be a red herring of course.

I am keeping an eye on Hugo and Jade, could they be father and daughter?

I'm actually surprised James's name wasn't put forward again.
That would've meant only 1 new Faithful got revealed to the Traitors instead of 2.

I think Secret Traitor is Roxy (aside from her handwriting being very similar to that used on the murder shortlist for night 1) - she voted for James at the round table saying something like she had to go with her gut, so if anyone picked up that she had voted for him and his name then appears on the murder shortlist again, she'd come under suspicion. It would also explain Reece being put on there to put heat on Adam (as Reece had voted for him), and if she was in the room when Ben made his little speech then it would explain him being on there too.

(Apart from one Saturday - tonight)

And don't forget 'The Traitors :
Uncloaked' which follows straight afterwards also on BBC1 with Ed Gamble. Great fun with guest stars from previous series and the voted-off and murdered victims from the last episode.

I thought at first that Claudia was speaking to us viewers!! (about the secret Traitor).
Maybe she was looking into a mirror, therefore speaking to herself? hmm

No, I thought it has come too close to celebrities which I thoroughly enjoyed.

lainieb56 Sat 03-Jan-26 17:34:17

I watched the celebrity one. It was so good. Not the sort of thing I usually watch..had.me.ha ging every episode lol, so I am definitely watching this one, and it's been cracking so far. I am already.makinh.my own list to see who's who and get clues as to who the secret one.mught be!

I'm pleasantly surprised by how addictive this all is but don't quite understand the round table bit.

Obviously the three Traitors know each other but how do we know all the others aren't a Traitor. Is that only revealed if they are voted out and was the secret traitor in previous series. I'm sure they said that was new.

Smintie Sat 03-Jan-26 18:32:08

The inscription under the ‘family tree’ reads:

Among the closest of your friends lie hidden enemies, unless your trust becomes the cause of your own downfall.

Rough translation.

Don’t forget it’s on earlier tonight!

Hi Millie I'm so pleased that you stuck with it!

Secret Traitor is new, so no idea how that is going to work, will be very interesting to see.

Yes BlueBelle it really was brilliant!

knspol Sat 03-Jan-26 21:17:19

Watched the very first 2/3 episodes and just wasn't interested so never watched anymore.
