Leanne's had some heat on her though so potentially worth keeping in. Lisa mentioned Charlotte and Minah so is risky.

I'd have been tempted to do the same and take a risk on killing someone from the woods group (well, I'd have taken any opportunity to murder Joe tbh!) If they're smart, they'll know that Jake would have been desperate for the shield as he's such an easy murder target. So praying that horrible Joe is gone🙏🏻

See everyone thought that was brilliant last year but why did no one ask him why the traitors didn’t get him the following day instead when he no longer had it?

Especially after he voted for Miles and Paul.

They were calling him the traitor catcher.

I guess all it did was cement him as 100% Faithfull.

It was the ultimate double bluff.

But you think like I do, I'd have asked well they tried to murder you last night they'll just get you tonight surely?

Both Traitors and Faithfulls want to murder or banish their competition for the money. Harry was a threat to them both but nobody seemed to work that out.

Mooosewoman · 16/01/2025 22:53

Yeah, I can’t stand Leanne. She’s so annoying!

saltandvinegarchipsticks · 16/01/2025 22:53

Whoarethoseguys · 16/01/2025 22:50

But Jake won't know they have gone for him. They could have recruited

I would assume if they’d needed to recruit they’d have done it before the round table.
But then I guess there’s an argument for there being two traitors so not a necessity to recruit.
but if that’s the case, why recruit now at all?

Clafoutie · 16/01/2025 22:56

ViolinsPlayGentlyOn · 16/01/2025 21:40

So would I. Even when I haven’t done anything.

I do this too, it is so very annoying

Yes @samarrange I think you can definitely get banished just because they don't like you!

Anyone seen as too clever is banished (or murdered). Traitors feel threatened by them and the faithful suspect them of hiding something.

Moonlightdust · 16/01/2025 23:02

Leanne and Joe to go!

I like Alexander 😢 and they themselves are mean to him.

I felt so sorry for him when they were all so muted in their excitement at getting him out the coffin. Their disappointment was so obvious! I get that it is difficult when new people come in but they haven’t given him a chance and have immediately ‘othered’ him, presumably because they perceive him to be intelligent?!

They don’t know how many traitors there are. So if they think Linda was one of three traitors then the traitors are down to two. They don’t suspect anyone was recruited when Charlotte was because there was a murder but it is normal for traitors to recruit after one is banished. If everyone comes back to breakfast tomorrow then it would be reasonable to think the traitors recruited rather than thinking they went for Jake and missed.

jumpintheline · 16/01/2025 23:07

I voted for yourself 😂😂 whyyyyyy

smellydog1 · 16/01/2025 23:08

Gone right off Leanne

Clafoutie · 16/01/2025 23:10

Tallyrand · 16/01/2025 22:44

The do not get told who has the shield.

It's why Harry's play last year of taking a shield and not announcing to everyone as a brilliant double bluff.

It allowed them to recruit but disguise it as the traitors must have tried to murder him. And why would a traitor seek out a shield?

It then made anyone aware he had the shield (like Andrew his fellow traitor) immune to suspicion but those unaware as suspected traitors.

Sorry, I meant that @WingingItSince1973 DH explaining when he hadn’t previously been into it was annoying 😀

Hanto · 16/01/2025 23:12

I thought Alexander burbling his backwards doll nursery rhyme was actually kind of sweet. He and Francesca were the only ones actually making an effort at the woods end of that challenge— they were troupers, dashing about singing, while Joe appeared not to understand what they were doing (ie what the mission actually required). He comes across more than ever like a cross between Victor Meldrew and one of Alan Bennett’s more annoying Talking Heads characters.

ViolinsPlayGentlyOn · 16/01/2025 22:47

It’s almost like a reset button is pressed every day, isn’t it?

That’s maybe why I’d be shit on it, I hold a grudge 😂

APushbikeNamedReluctance · 16/01/2025 23:16

Well Minah has lost all strategic ability since Linda went hasn't she? Make me wonder how much of Linda's contribution in the turret was edited out to make Linda look the hapless traitor just bumbling along.

Agreeing to Anna was daft. All three choices for are for the wrong reason.(charlotte also forgot Lisa named her - reminding Minah that Lisa said her name after Minah said no one had mentioned either of them).

Murder a person whose murder make the other suspicious of another person. I mean i don't think a traitor has ever murdered a person who suspected them as a traitor, but that's never stopped the faithfuls thinkings someone was murdered by the person they suspected.

Leanne would have been my choice. It'd put the spotlight on Leon. Freddie woud be another choice or Alexander.

The focus on how it was Joe who targetted Alex to get him banished.

I'm keen for Jake to go, but I'd have to leave him in. He's fairly clueless now his one and only suspect has gone.

JaneJeffer · 16/01/2025 23:16

I didn't like the way Leanne pointed and bossily said do you want to go and do (insert backwards rhyme) at the others.

mewkins · 16/01/2025 23:16

LightCameraBitchSmile · 16/01/2025 21:28

Alexander just got even better in my eyes GrinGrin

He and Frankie in the task have been the highlights of the series for me.😆😆😆😆😆😆😆

Periodiclabelle · 16/01/2025 23:21

witchycat2 · 16/01/2025 21:59

They don't 'have' to give the faithful some blood though, especially as they won't be revealing if they're traitors or faithful in the final.

But I'm sure the diary room shots are filmed after the series has finished

They’re not filmed after the show’s finished but on the day of filming, everyone is pulled into the diary room(s) - there are several- at different times times to unload. The details are too fresh to be done too long after

Ineedashero · 16/01/2025 23:22

absolutely loving the twitter memes tonight.

APushbikeNamedReluctance · 16/01/2025 23:22

Yes Joe and Jake were useless in the task. Freddie did his bit, but those two just lumbered around clues and Joe even had the unaware cheek to make a jibe at Alexander.

Theres no away that man can possibly be planning to go back into a classroom. The students will be merciless with the amount of fodder he's giving them.

tilligan · 16/01/2025 23:25

Great title...why oh why do they all refer to each other as " yourself," instead of " you"?!
Do they think they sound clever?! Can't Joe the English teacher correct them??
Leanne or Joe next to go....

Clafoutie · 16/01/2025 23:26

Even though I am enjoying this series less than the last, The Traitors sure does help January along 🙂

Used to work with a teacher who was on a reality tv show. And he came out of it pretty well and more charismatic than Joe. But even he got ripped due to failing a couple of challenges.

Has anyone got a subscription to The Rest Is Entertainment? They did a Traitors special but I’m not really willing to spend £8.

Do you know if you have to pay that every month? I was tempted to as a one off but don't want to do it every month. It's a hell of a lot when you think that Netflix is only a bit more than that.

Maybe next season they can get identical twins and swap them in and out under a combined fake name, so that Twin 1 can look genuinely blank about something which supposedly involved them (but actually involved Twin 2).

Great idea 😅
