As we enter the final week of The Traitors series 3, who will be victorious?

I really like the idea of the seer but I really think it should have been introduced much earlier. There are so many ways it can be played and so many possibilities to use it/influence people and also put a target on your back as the traitors try to work out who it is. With only one murder left it seems a bit pointless as the seer could just reveal themselves with little jeopardy.

Definitely agree with this.

Unless the twist is that Alexander has been the Seer since he came in, and nobody knew about it.

I love how obsessed we all are with Alexander 🤣

RealHousewivesOfTaunton · 21/01/2025 17:17

I like the idea of a separate sabotage pot for the traitors. The tasks are often the most boring bit (apart from breakfast) so that would liven them up a lot.

Oh I would love it if it’s something that’s been going on before the big twist reveal, we’d all be dissecting previous episodes!

Ooh. Ah. Now then. Fozia did mention him as 'eagle eyes' at one point.

I think Jake has been murdered but am finding it difficult to think of who is next to be banished.

My favourite comment has to be Leon on Uncloaked. After praising Alexander for his noble desire for the winnings, “ I just wanted a new shed “

I liked that too. I'm sure many of them want the money for a holiday, home improvements, designer clothes etc but feel pressured to have a sob story to make themselves look more 'worthy' of winning. I'm not a fan of the sob stories at all.

I would really like it if that guy who went home from the cages had been secretly watching everything and can tell them what he thinks. Like he doesn't know who the traitors are or have any stake in winning but has seen everything and tells them what he noticed.

It was Lisa. Alexander's still in!

If I (not in a million years) applied to be on the show, the money would not be at the top of the list of reasons for doing it.

Same, the chances of winning are so slight you would likely end up disappointed if that's your sole aim.

Yes! As if I’m not overthinking it already though.

I'm not sure Minah does trust Charlotte. She has talked about sisterhood, happily chucked her sisters under the bus, then embraced the new sister as if none of it had ever happened. I think she's quite capable of talking the sisterhood talk while having a brutal game plan to get to the end alone.

Letting Charlotte think they are playing a team game could be a very clever move on Minah's part. I'm still rooting for her to win.

Agree! Made me laugh she ' threw Linda under the bus' then talked fondly of the sisterhood and she's doing it for Linda!!

I think Linda was already under the bus and they both knew it

In fairness, it was the most amiable ‘traitor voting out another traitor’ scenario ever!

witchycat2 · 21/01/2025 20:16

Linda did give her permission to vote her out if it came to it, to be fair. Maybe it would have looked suspicious if Minah didn't vote Linda at that point.

Although Linda did say on Uncloaked that she would never have voted for Minah.

I have just started the NZ season 2. Much better than the first NZ one. No celebs. Some excellent and brutal traitors. It's not on TV but am watching on one of 'those' websites on my laptop and or screen mirroring

beasmithwentworth · 21/01/2025 20:19

Yeah I think Minah will ultimately be ruthless and want to take it all for herself. I just hope she plays this interim part wisely if that's her plan. She needs to actually stay in until the final to make sure she can pounce!

whosaidtha · 21/01/2025 20:34

Why aren't they bringing up who voted for armarni and Linda? Especially Minah. I know it doesn't absolve them (obviously) but it's an indicator.

I'm guessing it would take Brain of Britain to remember who voted for who at every round table - I know I couldn't do that. I'd have trouble remembering who I voted for and who voted for me, let alone anyone else.

I have trouble remembering what I had for breakfast

RealHousewivesOfTaunton · 21/01/2025 21:54

I'd be going back to the hotel and writing it all down in a notebook. Who mentioned who, who voted for who etc. Hopefully that's allowed!

They don’t know anything that happens after they leave the castle.
Last season they had a WhatsApp group and apparently it blew up when the Ross and Diana secret was revealed as none of them knew.

Yin said she had plans for a wall chart with different colours of post it notes for different things like voting
