Anyone up for a 'Traitors thread'?

Fallingstar Sun 11-Oct-26 20:26:36

I’d never heard of Bella either but then I don’t know a fair few of them. And celebs do gush, but I certainly won’t remember this young woman after the show has finished.

MarieElla Sun 11-Oct-26 20:25:03

Bella's preferred pronouns is 'they'.
What is so difficult about referring to them as such!
By refusing to acknowledge this shows bigotry and ignorance.

Bella is a good young actor but there was far too much gushing about her brilliance and genius, it was a bit silly.

Well, I'd never heard of her before and probably won't come across her again.

Don’t you mean ‘it’s’ brilliance Oreo 🤣

Their brilliance, I think, Bluebelle.

It's not as good as last year's Celebrity Traitors.

That’s true so far I agree.This group seem more ill at ease with each other.

I think Miranda is great and love her batty humour I really like Romish and Rob and Joe, but they haven’t really come into their own
Jerry is annoying
Having watch Traitors from its concept I m not finding this one up with the best dare I say so far a bit predictable and yawning at times

Aldom Sun 11-Oct-26 15:55:47

I have always enjoyed anything Miranda has acted in.
I think she is very astute and makes an excellent Traitors contestant.
On the whole, I prefer Traitors when the contestants are 'ordinary' people because I think they have a better understanding of how the game works than the majority of the 'celebraties'.

Ziggy62 Sun 11-Oct-26 09:44:25

I really like Miranda

Fallingstar Sun 11-Oct-26 09:42:37

Am sorry to hear about Miranda’s ill health and take back earlier comments.
Hope being on this show doesn’t over tire here.

Lixy2 Sun 11-Oct-26 09:40:08

I’m delighted to see Miranda back on TV; she has always been able to make me giggle and we share an admiration of Eric Morcambe. I think the ‘slitty-eyed’ look is just her playing to the camera. I hope she does well.

foxie I agree that it’s all bonkers, but good fun. The celebs seem to be enjoying themselves rather than being freaked out too much by the ghoulish mess. Rather them than me though!

"Pander to Bella"...what do you mean?
Nobody pandered to them!

Miranda’s been very ill for years, ME brought on by undiagnosed Lyme disease. Alopecia was one of her symptoms and she’s spoken about her hair growing back “odd”. I read that she only ventured back to public life in 2024 and was easing herself in gently, so I was a bit surprised to see her in something so full on.

Casdon Sat 10-Oct-26 21:37:13

I think Richard was gutted to go.

kircubbin2000 Sat 10-Oct-26 21:33:31

Do you think Richard went on purpose? He still got paid and had his play in London.
It's ridiculous they have had to pander to Bella and call her they. Glad she's gone.

I think Miranda is wearing a wig, it fascinates me as it’s so untidy, but I guess that’s her ‘look’ as a comedian.

Are you sure?
It looks too bad to be a wig 🧐

Fallingstar Sat 10-Oct-26 21:26:09

I usually like Miranda but she is incredibly sour faced and serious so far, and tends to purse her lips and narrow her eyes when Hannah is around, though she hasn’t voted her off yet so not sure what that is about. James Blunt annoys me and so does the rather big built woman with dark hair who just seems to have an expression of bewilderment on her face the whole time.
Joe Lycett is also getting a bit too serious though loving Rob and Romesh which makes me think one of them will be murdered to break up party and thereby leaving the remaining comedian feeling vulnerable.
But am probably totally wrong.

I could never stand Miranda. Sooner she goes the better.

Parsley3 Sat 10-Oct-26 16:09:47

Joe would be an excellent traitor. I hope he gets recruited when Hannah is (inevitably) banished.

Oreo Sat 10-Oct-26 15:59:59

I think Michael Sheen would be a good traitor, or Romesh.

Oreo Sat 10-Oct-26 15:58:51

I may be going against the grain here but am not keen at all on Miranda.
She constantly button holes contestants and with nothing concrete to go on advises them against people quite aggressively.
She wouldn’t speak to James Blunt after the round table got rid of Julie.

MartavTaurus Sat 10-Oct-26 15:15:53

It's the dim ones we need to watch closely, because actually they're not so dim. Remember Stephen Fry went out early on, Alan Carr won. I'm not surprised some of them appear slow to understand things because they have nothing concrete to go on, whereas we know exactly.
I think they need to be good at reading people and just hit lucky.
