Anyone up for a 'Traitors thread'?

JenniRen Sat 31-Oct-26 10:58:50

Yes, he looked truly distraught.

Poor Blunty. To give him his due though, he stayed consistently wrong to the bitter end.

Bless his cotton socks! I thought he was going to cry! 💔💔

Maremia Sat 31-Oct-26 10:56:23

Such a Traitor thing to do. 😃

Indeed, Romesh is on a lot of things. Other comedians even joke about it, for example on Mock the Week.
I thought the last two episodes brightened up an otherwise fairly mundane series.
I feel sad that James A is getting such a lot of flack. He looked so ill at his last round table. I think he would have been fine if he could have stayed as a faithful. He really did not want to lie. It is a pity that he was put in that position.

No, James A did not want to become a Traitor but he knew that would be a possibility, he knew exactly what arena he was entering. Someone so fragile should have been strongly advised not to contemplate joining such a stressful programme. Presumably they have health checks first?

When he left he could in fact have taken full responsibility for the murder in plain sight in the library. Instead he left with a finger pointing at Maya.

Are we told in advance what the charities are?

Maremia Sat 31-Oct-26 10:37:23

Are there some uncharitable thoughts about the chosen charities?

Surely not, Fallingstar.

Fallingstar Sat 31-Oct-26 10:18:58

I think Romesh is just a very successful comedian, hadn’t even really noticed which channel he tends to be on.
Not sure why this is causing a problem.
He was pretty popular on this thread until his named charity was for refugees, surely it can’t be that 🙄

NotSpaghetti Sat 31-Oct-26 09:52:26

I really hadn't seen that!

I'd no idea Romesh is the BBCs "golden boy" either.
Amol Rajan is that, surely?

It's Romesh and Claudia who front BBC's TV Licence self-promotions. He's got a prime time BBC Radio show, he's on goodness knows how many programmes - admittedly not all BBC. In fact he was on 3 channels pretty much all at the same time last night.

I would say he's definitely got a BBC golden aura about him right now.

Prize money is small fry compared to other production costs I'd expect!

merlotgran Sat 31-Oct-26 09:27:50

Controversially, I also wish the prize money was going to other charities but it's their choice I suppose

I immediately thought, How very BBC. Romesh is their golden boy and I presume its licence payers’ money.

But like you say, it’s their choice.

Aveline Sat 31-Oct-26 07:51:19

I don't know. I thought it was all pretty dull but hyped up to an extraordinary extent. I thought Kenny would win but am glad he didn't. Controversially, I also wish the prize money was going to other charities but it's their choice I suppose.

BlueBelle Fri 30-Oct-26 22:26:39

I was rooting for Kenny but I love Romash so really glad he won and so very happy at the charities they both choose brilliant Bash, whoever he is, was a clear thinker
Afraid James Blunt drives me to drink, he irritates me so much but I’m sure he’s a nice chap really The end was a good episode some of the other episodes have been poorer than other years in my opinion

nanaK54 Fri 30-Oct-26 22:25:20

That was great, well done Romesh and Sebastian!

MollyNew Fri 30-Oct-26 22:17:17

Great final - the look on James Blunt's face was priceless! Well done Romesh and Bash.

Is the Australian Traitors on iPlayer?

Visgir1 Fri 30-Oct-26 22:10:53

Loved it... Well done Faithful Romesh and Bash such a shame James voted to not end it.
If you want to see a brilliant finale see the last one of the Australian series 2 that's hysterical.

GrannyGravy13 Fri 30-Oct-26 22:03:59

Brilliant final, just wish James Blunt hadn’t voted for the final banish. Well done Bash & Romesh 👏👏👏

Basgetti Fri 30-Oct-26 22:00:57

Yes, that too Beechnut!
So glad I’m not a dedicated follower of fashion 😁

TillyTrotter Fri 30-Oct-26 21:53:50

It was a tense and exciting Final. The 80 mins whizzed by. Right result ,
but actually feel a teeny bit sorry for James Blunt.

Beechnut Fri 30-Oct-26 21:53:29

Is it just me wondering if Maya”s gillet is made of tripe?

I thought it looked like a tumble dryer extraction pipe 😂

GillyMo Fri 30-Oct-26 21:51:16

So happy that Bash and Romesh got through to the end. Agree that it's excellent entertainment.
