The Traitors #6 - I voted for yourself

[witchycat2]

Continued discussion for series 3 of The Traitors UK

@Doingmybest12 I'm also enjoying Joe's dry deadpan delivery. His face in the background when Alexander was so earnestly delivering the backward nursery rhyme: hilarious.

That's one hell of a misspelling! Even worse than Anna's Meina 😆🤣 at least she apologised for getting it wrong.

Just caught up!
I like the new Charlotte - she's come alive! (And has a sense of humour, I think)

The faithfuls really have no clues to go on, do they? So it inevitably boils down to whether you like or get on with someone more than another. Leanne's feeling that Leon was avoiding her was probably genuine (if a tad over dramatic) as they had been so cosy in their little click that wasn't a clique.

What genuine clues have they missed? The writing on the painting is about the only thing that could have been investigated/discussed?

I don't mind the challenges as they are an opportunity for the Traitors to slip up in some way and they also reveal more of all the players' characters as they can't edit their own reactions as efficiently when they're concentrating on the challenge IYSWIM?

I'm team Traitors nevertheless!

Why? Minah targeted both Armani and Linda.

The paintings are awful. Livi’s was really boss eyed

What I’m interested in about Charlotte is that she appears not to wear visible makeup, which I admire as a strategy — I’m prone to blushing (like poor, innocent Alex) and think that not wearing foundation would make me much more ‘readable’ as guilty, regardless of whether I were faithful or a traitor.

Ghastly Leanne’s foundation is so thick it seems mask-like, which might be quite useful, quite apart from her whole Pink Barbie persona, in terms of concealment. Certainly no one’s ever going to be able to say ‘You went all red when I asked you about X’.

When she appeared (bafflingly) to be crying in last night’s episode about something to do with Leon, her makeup was completely undamaged. She should probably advertise unshiftable foundation!

Anna annoyed me with all the dramatics about having been targeted by the traitors from day 1. If that were really the case, she would have been murdered the first night, FFS. Also all that dramatic shaking and trembling because she'd had to lie in a coffin for a few minutes - I'm quite sure that the reality after the card game was that she was taken off to her hotel, and then only got into the coffin when the players' car appeared on the horizon. It still irritates me that the likes of Francesca bang on about how cruel it was to murder her after she had such a hard time.

I would like to see them leave in this order

• Leanne - (Faithful) - banishment so she knows people don't like her
• Joe - (Faithful) - murder
• Lisa - (Faithful) - banishment so she gets to say a few words before she goes
• Jake - (Faithful) - murder
• Freddie - (Faithful) - murder
• Alexander - (Faithful) - banishment
• Francesca - (Faithful) - banishment
• Leon - (Faithful) - murder because I couldn't bare to see his sad face knowing he was so close
• Minah - (Traitor) for the win
• Charlotte (Traitor) for the win

Obviously the methods don't stack up - two murders and THEN two banishments, but that's what I'd like.

Minah was wearing a black jumper yesterday. It looked like a traitor outfit. If I was in there I would wear bright colours to avoid people subconsciously associating me with traitors.

They are foolish if they vote one of the woods people because if it is the person with the shield then it's obvious that all traitors are in the house group.

I don't think Lisa or Jake will be banished they would have to be murdered to leave. The best thing to do would be recruit Francesca, Leon or Freddie as a sacrificial lamb

But no one will know they tried to murder a shielded player. Everyone will just show up at breakfast as usual and assume the traitors recruited.

@Hanto ahh good point and if they do get away with it puts suspicion on woods people.

Myself can 100% confirm to yourself that it was filmed in May as myself has a friend who is them self a part of the filming crew.

I did think that, if I were Linda or Minah, I would have chosen the people with the shortest names for the card game, to minimise the chances of being caught whilst writing them on the picture.

Didn't someone say upthread that if the traitors attempt to murder a player holding a shield, that player gets a letter? So they know there was a murder attempt.

For teaching yourself I highly recommend Bella Coco on YouTube. I know a few people who have learnt from her videos.

We don’t know that. It’s possible the intended victim will be told there was an attempt to murder them but they were saved by the shield.

I think the shielded person is told that they tried to murder them...

That would reply on the shielded person being believed if they chose to share it with everyone. I assume, like the recruitment letter, they don't get to keep it

But if they try to murder Jake then it will be an absolute certainty that all the traitors were in the castle.

Not necessarily. It could be that there was no murder because they recruited.

I'm surprised there wasn't 'heat' on Frankie after she had them waste a load of time digging up grave VII instead of VIII. It was something that could easily have been presented as actual evidence (although it wasn't) people have been hung out to dry for a lot less.

I reaaallly hope they don’t try to murder Jake then. He will be the smuggest of the smug.

There were no shields available in that task though it was all about the money. No one can afford to sabotage a task at this stage. The prize pot is really low.

Also it could be Alexander.... Jake was clear he didn't trust him, so he was the only one in the Doll's House that he didn't tell.

No because Jake will be told that they tried to murder him.

And he'd be unlikely to be a traitor and faking the attempted murder as that's exactly what Harry did
