Did anyone else silently clap Frankie firmly telling Linda not to shout at her? I thought MN would approve of her healthy boundaries.

I noticed that too.

Right. Mission accepted.

It will be revolutionary in my house, as DH is in charge of the tv schedule. He’ll need to adjust!

Can I ask about the deletions earlier in the thread? Were people too good at guessing, or what?

Just working out what I’m behind on, and what I’m not allowed to say!

witchycat2 · 12/01/2025 16:24

It's funny to think this was all filmed months ago and the contestants are all at home. I reckon Frankie is a MNetter - maybe she's on this thread Wine

Frankie - if you’re on here, please can you bring up the subject of how to pronounce clique properly on ‘Uncloaked’ - a virtual signal.

😂 Also Frankie, please can you say once and for all that you are not Freddie's mum.

Deletions? Which pages?

The Z will only lead back to Linda if the picture is left on the wall AND someone sees it AND remarks on the unusual Z.

Even if that happens unless someone remembers seeing Linda write Fozia like that at the round table (unlikely as it was in small writing and the others don't study the writing itself) no one will twig that Linda wrote the name on the picture.

It will only be realised if she writes Fozia at the round table again but:
If Fozia is murdered at the end of Death match Linda won't be writing her name again.
If Fozia is recruited as a traitor Linda will likely not be writing it again.

So although it's a big clue if anyone has already spotted Linda writes her Zs unusually, it likely won't lead anywhere.

I’m wondering if this writing of Z is a generational thing.
Im 58 and this is how we were taught to write z along with my parents as well

Its a perfectly normal way of writing it.
How do the younger ones on here write it, how were you all taught.

If I was a faithful I’d be really peeved at being voted out for writing perfectly normally,

I just looked back - the deletions were someone being very unpleasant about Livi appearing without her fake eye. Just nastiness, not plot/spoiler related

Thank you. How appalling.

I think Fozia will remember how Linda wrote her name. But if she's murdered Linda will likely be safe in this aspect

On the contrary, if Fozia is murdered, Linda will be in further danger of being banished, as both Frankie and Lisa know that Linda has a grudge against her.

Also Linda was the only person who voted for Fozia at the round table. Lioking at her voting pattern, she usually votes for whoever has accused her of being a traitor!

Edited

I write mine the same way they look on a keyboard so just like a zig zag with no tail on them.

I don’t think I would have paid enough attention to how Linda (or anyone) wrote Fozia’s name at the round table to pick up on it later though!

claudiaswinklemen · 12/01/2025 17:23

I write my 'z's the same way as Linda. I am young enough to be her daughter, however, Linda is not my mum.

outofofficeagain · 12/01/2025 17:28

I'm 49 and I write my z's like that.

I probably wouldn't notice but if you've never seen it written like that before, only 'z' then you might.

I think they're all far too preoccupied to remember that from the round table though.

This is so true.
started watching Australian season 1 last night and it’s just not the same without her. The Oz host is so dull. Makes you realise how good all the BBC editing and producing is too. It’s just not a patch on the UK version IMO

Oh I don't mind Rodger. He's different to Claudia but I don't mind that. I actually think Claudia seems less involved this time round, so far anyway. I remember her yelling her head off last year when they were on the water and obviously the funeral shenanigans were epic.
Also, I actually think I preferred the challenges that the Aus ones had to do. The gunking one we got the other night was crap tbh.

TitsInAbsentia · 12/01/2025 17:37

I think the challenges have been really disappointing so far this year. They can't have run out of ideas already!

I like the ones in the church, particularly the bell-ringing one.

So Frankie is your mum!!!

ValentineBlack · 12/01/2025 17:48

I remember a thread about Australia 2 so someone might want to dig it out if people want to discuss there – it contains spoilers.

All I’ll say is the ending was imo fantastic and the rest of it was jawdropping but not really in a good way

FerretChops · 12/01/2025 17:50

What's the best international traitors to watch please? Thinking of watching one but would like it to be decent

myplace · 12/01/2025 18:04

And what’s this ‘uncloaked’? Where do I find that? Sounds like I need it!

myplace · 12/01/2025 18:05

Sorry, I don’t usually watch tv! Had to be shown how to turn it on this morning 🤣 DH has about 6 different remote controls and I haven’t paid attention since smart tvs came in.

Aftershow - can be found on the iplayer.

witchycat2 · 12/01/2025 18:08

Uncloaked is also on BBC Sounds, and they have extra bonus episodes on there too

I recommend the NZ one. A very satisfying watch.
