RedTwoster Posted January 23 Posted January 23 I never thought they’d top the celebrity series, but they may well have. That was sensational. Well done Stephen and Rachel! Quote
Paid Members FLips Posted January 23 Paid Members Posted January 23 All this talk about the format running out of steam or being predictable and then it goes and puts on the best season yet. Fair play to the Traitors. Quote
wordsfromlee Posted January 23 Posted January 23 Fair play to Stephen. The temptation to vote for Rachel at the very end and take it all for himself must have been huge, but he stuck to his principles. Quote

Paid Members hallicks Posted January 23 Paid Members Posted January 23 I only started properly watching towards the last few episodes, but that was exceptional. Delighted at the outcome. Quote
BarryOVega Posted January 23 Posted January 23 Fair play to them for winning but they were up against the weakest group of faithfuls out of the 4 series, was hoping Stephen would fuck Rachel over at the end but he’s a fool so he didn’t obviously Get rid of the sob stories bit next series and it’ll be instantly better, Traitors series code 2143 Quote
CTXRussomark Posted January 24 Posted January 24 (edited) My heart was in my throat for the last 20 minutes of that. Stephen is the biggest babyface of all time - had multiple chances to fuck Rachel over but stayed true to his word to the very end. There was a minute where I thought Stephen turning on Faz had flicked a switch in Jack's head and he might have switched his vote to Stephen in the last round, with Rachel being the one to turn. Was so relieved when she stuck to to the deal too. Amazing finale and worthy winners. May have even topped the (amazing) celebrity series.

TibBo Posted January 24 Posted January 24 Yeh the Faithfuls were terrible to be fair. Only caught 2 Traitors and one of them literally handed themselves to them on a plate. Don’t think I’ve ever seen less than that on any of the English speaking series. Quote

Only caught 2 Traitors and one of them literally handed themselves to them on a plate. Don’t think I’ve ever seen less than that on any of the English speaking series. More than anything else, I think it shows the power of social capital. The clues were all there to show that Rachel was a Traitor, and if it was someone less liked she likely wouldn’t have stayed for as long as she did. Same goes for Stephen, his pals couldn’t come to terms with the idea of him being anything other than ‘lovely Stephen’. Same goes for Jessie - no one took her seriously as they looked at her in a patronising way, even though she was completely right with her theories. She’d have been an interesting (and likely effective) Traitor for that very reason - people wouldn’t have wanted to accept that she’d be anything other than a Faithful. It’s as much a social experiment as it is a game. Quote
DavidB6937 Posted January 24 Posted January 24 The social part is exactly why it's so gripping each time. No matter how much people think they know about the game and how to play it, everyone is human. Predictable. Unpredictable. You just never know and that's what makes it such a good show. Quote
Paid Members FLips Posted January 27 Paid Members Posted January 27 (edited) Not to Chutney the place up but how absolutely awful for them. It’s smallest slither of silver linings but at least it didn’t happen while she was stuck in a castle, and at least Stephen didn’t steal all the prize money on the last vote for this to then happen when she got home. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/czdq2nlgz6jo Edited January 27 by FLips Quote
DavidB6937 Posted January 27 Posted January 27 Saw that earlier. Awful news for her. Hope her mum was able to watch and be proud of her at least. Quote
RedTwoster Posted January 27 Posted January 27 Dementia is about as cruel an illness as there is, and dealing with Parkinson’s alongside that must have been horrific for her and her family. I really hope she got to enjoy the pride of seeing her daughter come out on top, in an unexpectedly honourable and heartwarming way. What horrible timing. Quote
Paid Members Thunderplex Posted February 11 Paid Members Posted February 11 Loving the Irish Traitors! Much more sweary than the UK version and Siobhán McSweeney is brilliant as the presenter. Well worth a watch. Quote
