The Traitors UK discussion thread *SPOILERS*

[TibBo]

Yeah so, Nathan, Kas, and Yin were the ones being discussed in the tower, and Nathan and Kas were the last ones to return to breakfast

Series 2 - they oddly recruit the first night, but the first time they murder, Ross, Kyra, and Johnny are discussed, and Ross/Johnny are last to enter breakfast with one of the traitors 

Series 1 - Andrea, Theo and Aisha are discussed, and Andrea/Theo are the last to return to breakfast.

Fun anecdote from Season 1's Rayan:

Quote

Here is a fun little story - I did try to use TV to meta-game.

I knew with absolute certainty that Theo wasn’t a traitor because he said that he went to his lodging and put on the last few minutes of Naked Attraction on E4 but was disappointed that it was only vaginas. I had done the same the night before and knew that only a faithful would know that the episode was indeed female-only (because a traitor would have been at the castle filming the murders). I did eventually tell him that on day 7 but was promptly told to shut tf up by a producer who looked like I had just committed a real murder. ?

Kas was in his rights to make the Harold Shipman retort imo. The pink haired fella said his comment was loaded but no one said the same for the bloke who said he’s a doctor by day and murderer by night. Which was an odd thing to say and they speculated Kas is the traitor because he’s got a good job where he helps people. The logic sometimes is ridiculous. More people should be on Linda and her Hollyoakes acting.

Armani was a nuisance and glad shes gone. I wonder who’s strong enough for them to recruit. They should go for her sister.

Brilliant then we can talk about Keith Kwon-Do writing NATHER and then going off to do karate in his bedroom in full gear before being murdered.

Genuinely sad this didn't lead to a pink panther / Cato moment, where they went to give him the envelope and he jumped out of a cupboard in full gear and leathers them.

I absolutely love this program the only reality show actually gripping and tense.

However jesus Christ Armani has to be the single worst traitor in history including seasons not yet made. 

She drew all the attention and didn't shut her mouth and simmer for one second, she might have well created a neon sign above her head with I'm a traitor.

It's unknown what the hell her game plan was but when your own sister says she thinks she is a traitor you have shat the bed massively.

She wasn't even likable on any avenue just loud, cocky and clearly felt she was a master and smashing it like no one there had eyes. 

Minah absolutely smashed it and played it to perfection voting Armani out giving off she is one of the faithful and keeping safe with the older lady being numbered and loads of eyes on her making her the last left until they can recruit which will be soon or it's going to be a short series 

 

 

I thought it was on daily but it's not which sucks but three times a week is better than once 

[Daaaaaad!]

Kas. Take a bow son.

My favourite exit of any participant, ever. 

(apologies for the tweet, it was the only one I could find that had the necessary clip)

Bit of a shame for Jack, he left the train, got to be a piñata then had to go home without ever making it to the castle. I would reduce my sympathy for the haircut but actual barber Tyler’s is worse and he’s still there.

The guy who looks like a young Toby from the Office is a right knob.

Young Toby is a tremendous shout, I thought he reminded me of somebody!!

[RedTwoster]

Recruiting Anna or Freddie seems like a very risky idea. At this stage and based or previous years, they’d have to know they were being set up for a fall and they’re as well as to betray one of their fellow traitors. If that’s were me, I’d be doing everything to frame them as the day goes on, to the point it would be obvious they were in it with me if I were actually dumped.

They’d have been better off recruiting Alexander - intelligence, or the perception of it, has already proved to be a negative trait in this game. They’d eventually wonder why he’s still alive and toy with the idea he’s a Traitor because of that, or because they can’t believe both newcomers came in as faithfuls. But in between then and now, he might be an asset. 

Alternatively, recruiting young Toby, Jake or the barber - assuming they accept - might be a less obvious way to recruit a fall guy, while also taking down a few more in their group in the process. 

[Mr_Danger]

The barber with the 90’s boy band curtains is destined to be this years big dumb traitor recruited for his resemblance to a golden retriever more than his ability to play the game. Fozia seems like a natural fit but might be too obvious. She has a natural sense of authority that might protect her though.

[Chris B]

Kas's exit was superb. And all the better for how much Young Toby clearly got the arse over it.

[TheBurningRed]

Yeah getting annoyed because he was “toying” with them. They got what they deserved.

[stumobir]

Is Livi, “like literally” the worst contestant they’ve ever had? She’s definitely not my bestie. Some serious main character syndrome going on there and far too emotional for this game. It would be a huge misstep for the Traitors to get rid of her, the faithful don’t have a chance of finding them while she continues to be so chaotic.

I really like Minah, I think she’ll do well to go undetected but feel like she needs a stronger partner to go the distance. Linda’s days are numbered anyway, once a few of the more toxic players, who’ve controlled all the round tables so far, are banished or murdered, she’ll soon be sussed.

You could say that about half of them. Someone is always crying and you do wonder if it’s not put on where they found such a bunch of emotional wrecks.

She certainly doesn't seem to understand what the word "alibi" means.
