Good intel.

As for when relationships are revealed, isn’t it up to the people concerned? Though maybe it’s planned with the producers to create drama.

Season 1: was week 2 before Tom blurted it out at breakfast he was Alex’s boyfriend (without apparently consulting her).

Season 2: in episode 3, Diane told the audience (though as far as I remember they didn’t tell the other contestants) Ross was her son.

Show quote history

I remember on Uncloaked last year that the contestants who had left before the Ross/Diane revelation didn’t know until it aired.

Same. I’m hoping Joe’s gone very soon. He’s a nasty bully who proves that they always choose popular people to stick the boot into.

Show quote history

He's horrible, him and Dan need splitting up.

Mollie from Traitors series 2 is in this year's line up for Dancing on Ice!

Dan isn't really Joe's ally though. They are constantly at odds with each other.

Joe is the English teacher sometimes with glasses, willing Kas to confirm that he was a traitor last night.

Dan defended Kas every time.

I’ve just finished catching up on all posts. I only started reading from thread #2 and the breakfast thing has been asked at least 3 times. This thread could be a drinking game 😂

Maybe I've got Dan mixed up then but Joe is awful

i agree with you too @WinterCosiness ! Think @LindorDoubleChoc agrees too. I think this thread is a reflection of the same dynamics on the round table . Mob think about who is related - there’s no reason why there would be just because there was a gf and bf in s1 and mum and son in s2. I thought Armani was transparent and very honest, reasons to like her , but this thread loves duplicitous Minah - Minah is so funny though! Just pointing out probably everyone posts to agree with one post and if someone disagrees they probably don’t post. Loads of lurkers on MN. That’s why Uncloaked is so good to watch - who is to say Joe comes out and comes across as a Saint on Uncloaked? It’s all a game!

I do agree with PP that this series seems nastier. First series they were there to win money, the missions mattered. Now they don’t even bother with missions, it’s about staying in and finding traitors - in the first series it was set up so that they’d try to figure out who sabotaged the missions but don’t know if it’s the tv show makers or the contestants, they don’t do that now. Now it’s just gossip and feelings, prejudice, bias whatever they go on. I couldn’t believe no one would get off the train or the boat. What is the point. It’s a game show. No one is trying.

Show quote history

They didn’t have to sabotage the missions in series 1 at all. It was one of the reasons it’s so hard to figure out the traitors and why they add extra bits like the murder in plain sight. There’s been more opportunity for traitors to try and sabotage tasks this series like with the gunpowder one and Armani trying to give the wrong answers and why Anna came under suspicion for not tying the boat up properly at the last round table. I’d like to see a bit more of sabotaging of tasks as I think it adds a good element to it.

If somebody is recruited then Minah can pretend they tried to murder her. She has a shield

That's what Harry did last year

No one would know if the traitors had tried to murder them - would they? Actually I don't know how that works (when the intended victim has a shield).

arrigatto · 09/01/2025 20:54

Guys is the episode on tonight new or a repeat? I'm getting so confused

Ionacat · 09/01/2025 20:55

It’s a new one.

arrigatto · 09/01/2025 20:56

Ok thank you!!

Oh, Joe is definitely awful. Perhaps you meant Jake rather than Dan?

They don't get told. If everyone comes back to breakfast today, they'll realise that either someone was recruited (and therefore no murder) or the traitors tried to kill someone with a shield, and therefore failed.

Haven't caught up with everything but did the continuity bloke just say clowns?! 😩

jumpintheline · 09/01/2025 21:01

The last three people walking in to breakfast are always the three shortlisted for murder by the traitors.

how have the contestants not worked this out from previous series and therefore realised that those three contestants are therefore Faithful?

Apparently the breakfast scenes are filmed multiple times with different groups

Ooh. She’s great, I wonder if another relationship might be revealed.

Lentilweaver · 09/01/2025 21:03

Poor Anna.

ViolinsPlayGentlyOn · 09/01/2025 21:03

Anna???

dapsnotplimsolls · 09/01/2025 21:03

Oh, I didn't think they'd go for Anna.
