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

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

Yes, it's a shame we didn't get to see Yin's plan in action. I feel so sorry for the players who left early on, especially Yin. Worse this year, as she didn't even get to do a mission. It's been too brutal this year.

True, but my point is that having a few more like Alexander, Kas, Fozia, Dan and Yin in the mix might steer the herd in a different direction. For every emotional knee-jerker you need at least two logical thinkers.

But the logical thinkers immediately get voted out because the others fund intelligence 'suspicious'...

Edited to say we too were gutted at the loss of Yin. I think she would have made things a lot more interesting.

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.

I know that. Fozia was talking on uncloaked about Alexander being eagle-eyed during the card game when they were sitting next to each other.

After it'd been mentioned a few times here, and with missing it so much - I've just watched the Australian Traitors series two. What a rollercoaster ...

Shhhhhh - I'm saving that for next week 😁

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.

They did mention that Frankie’s voting pattern looked suspicious- eg that she talked about voting for Armani, then voted for Maia. But apparently she was able to explain all of this - plus the ‘look’ in her eyes Jake saw - to everyone’s satisfaction. I think she might be the first person in Traitors history to calmly explain away nonsense suspicions, which is impressive.

whosaidtha · 22/01/2025 06:46

What I've noticed this year that I don't think has happened as much in previous years is they seem to change who they vote every day. Linda got loads of votes episode 1/2 then none until last week. Leanne got loads and not one since. Same for Freddie. Everyone was going for him now no one. It seems so weird that they haven't said- last night it was between x & y. X was faithful so must be y.

ninja · 22/01/2025 07:36

@dapsnotplimsolls - don't worry I was careful not to give anything away and I won't. It's definitely an interesting watch, I think I prefer the UK one though

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

I quite liked the first NZ one but actually out of them all it was my least favourite.(not including the terrible US one, which I gave up after 3 episodes)
So pleased you are enjoying the 2nd one more.
Any clues where I can watch?😉

ellebelli · 22/01/2025 10:43

Also I know this is a thread for traitors..but I need my nightly fix so have started beastgames...anyone else watching?

I loved NZ series 1. One of my favourites of all the English-speaking seasons. Funny how we all like different ones! I guess much depends on whether you have a faithful or traitor bias. I'm team faithful all the way 😊

WatchOutMissMarpleIsAbout · 22/01/2025 10:53

I like all of them
even the US ones
I obviously have ones I prefer but I just love watching the interactions between the players.

ellebelli · 22/01/2025 11:55

I can't even remember who won the NZ one but remember all the other winners and runners up!

Snowmanscarf · 22/01/2025 12:03

Just caught up with the last ‘Uncloaked’. I love Leons’s answer when asked what he wanted to do with the money - “I want a shed!”. I also thought he came across as the most desperate for the money, to help his family, but in reality, you’re more likely not to win it, rather than win it.

TGIW (thank god it's Wednesday!) it's been a long 5 days.

I tragically get a flutter of excitement every time I remember about tonight! 😂🤭

ViolinsPlayGentlyOn · 21/01/2025 17:06

Definitely agree with this.

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

I want it to be this!

LindorDoubleChoc · 22/01/2025 14:22

Hey lads. Marking my spot for later. Have I missed anything vital?

SoScarletItWas · 22/01/2025 14:28

In unrelated news, I just popped to the supermarket wearing my black poncho and red gloves.

Please not Leanne or Joe!Otherwise I don't care who wins. I think it will be a Traitor victory. Minah has played a good game so far but I do think Charlotte may throw her under the bus.

Me! Fascinating people-watching. Screaming crying, betrayal, a cult. Terrifying but hilarious.

Suzuki76 · 22/01/2025 16:56

I am very excited but also do feel like the Weds episodes are often a bit fillery. I think last week was just a lot of Leanne moaning about Leon's changed behaviour, and Anna/Alex going.
