Traitors #4 - Banish, Murder or Click?

[witchycat2]

Continued discussion for series 3 of The Traitors UK.

With thanks to @tailinthejam for the thread title.

Do you think people aren’t voting for Minah because they aren’t sure how to spell it? You can’t sit at the round table and ask!!

I like the new games - they seem designed to wind the players up, rather than be a physical race

gloop certainly did that!

No. They aren't voting for her because she is brilliant.

Ha, well they are definitely winding the audience up. (Me at least 😂)

Here you go as promised - all the secret relationships. Might be unclear on the document, but Linda, Lisa, Frankie and Leanne are sisters.

Note, eveyone has been pretending about their reali life relationships (and ages).

Brilliant! 😂

Just watched uncloaked for first time just so could see Livi find out Freddie was a faithful given how hard she went for him and tried to get others to as well id not be accepting her hugs if I was him.

To the previous poster who said that Leon had a terrible poker face - I agree - and actually if you watch carefully at the talking head when he's talking about the game (which would have been filmed after. It had been completed ) then it's obvious he's lost from his eyes

I really hope Leon wins the card game, don't get the love for Fozia.

I think Fozia has gone in too hard, coming into the game late.

A little bit like you can slag your own family off but don't like it when other people do. She hasn't earned the right yet.

She has an abrasive manner but that might be because she's compared with Alexander who has a very different style.

Linda writing her name in exactly the same way as she's written it on the card for two nights running is not wise.

I noticed Minah didn't do any of the writing, and wondered if she was dyslexic.

I hadnt when twigged on handwriting being a clue.

Minah is definately the brains and Linda the brawn. I am hoping they don't bring in any more traitors, their dynamic as a twosome works. But I think the producers will want extra traitors added to the mix.

The card players seemed really shaky at thr end of the episode. Nerves or cold?

Me and my DH were also saying that Anna saw a fairly comprehensive handwriting sample from Minah on her recruitment letter, and there wasn't much attempt to disguise the writing that I could see. Surely she'd be looking at that and the round table boards as well?

Not a boomer and I give my z a tail. Admittedly it’s a slight affectation because they’re fun to do with fountain pen (my preferred writing implement).

I didn't think the gloop game had been completely thought through by the prod team. Suspect everyone kicked off when they saw the first result over Anna's head/face and the prod team probably had to stop filming and agree on how/where the gloop would be poured - down back of the head only...

Also - don't know if this would work - but what if between the 2 final players in the card game it's down to the Traitors to decide who gets murdered (face to face) and then the remaining player has to agree to be recruited as a traitor?

I don’t understand the complaint about not working as a team. Unless it is to get the money, it should be each person for themselves. It is always dangerous to assume someone is your friend. Better to assume a person only befriends you to do the dirty.

Yes. I do see why it was important about Dan lying though.

Not that it was a problem to have marked the player, but he lied to Frankie and she couldn't tell, so therefore couldn't trust him about anything else.

Alexander and Leanne much smarter.

The game was designed to upset and cause unrest between the contestants. Which it did.

The pouring of the gloop wasn't well thought through. Poor Anna got it in her eyes - less so with the second person. Then it stopped being poured over faces but still on their head/hair.

Who else noticed Joe* was the only one who didn't get any put on his head? It was on his back only.

• or possibly Dan.

I noticed Joe didn’t get any on his head. I assumed he had protested.

He might have said he had sensory issues with it?

That's an idea. Claudia did say it would be a face to face murder and what is the point in revealing to the card game loser about to be murdered who the traitors are?

so perhaps there is no final card game and now it's going to be Leon for the chop and Fozia force recruited as a traitor? I don't think the traitors would choose Leon to join them instead.

That would be genius, because it's been set up that Linda can't stand Fozia, so wouldn't want her as a traitor- but I can't see them choosing Leon.

Minah will get her way and Linda will spiral.

For Claudia fans, apparently Graham Norton is going on tour in Australia in Feb and Claudia is going to stand in for him on his chat show. Her career seems to be on the ascend.

Her kids are late teens/ 20s now so I guess she feels freer to say yes to more work.

I thought the same. I can imagine Joe having a stroppy tantrum about something like that 🙄

Linda has been living on borrowed time since the first round table. Minah and Fozia would be pretty unstoppable as a traitor duo.

When it comes down to it - it's actually irrelevant if you vote traitors off because of you do they just recruit more. There's always be traitors left at the end and in fact a recruited traitor might be harder to stop.

If you knew who a traitor was and were close to them you'd be better off keeping them in to be able to vote them out at the last minute
