Celeb Traitors #2. Who will blink first under Claudia’s stare, will Alan crack under pressure and how good does Mark Bonnar look in a kilt?

And who will be the first to be banished from the table?

It's going to be Ruth. The woman that spoke the truth.

She was amazing, she proper went for the jugular there

Anyway JR gave it away on Social media. Bigmouth

The Irish have the best sayings! My mum used to say of people- "ah, you're not as green as you're cabbage looking". Meaning they were cleverer than they first appeared! 😂

Exactly

Think I’d see it as pretty treacherous. It doesn’t matter that they hadn’t picked the traitors yet. Niko and Ruth were saying they felt vulnerable as they’re young. And Jonathan (voluntarily) assured them he had their back. Then voted for Niko at the v first banishment. Ruth probably felt safer with Jonathan saying that and now knows he can’t be trusted.

I don’t think having a degree, even a doctorate, from Oxford or Cambridge makes you that smart in general - and I know many of them, because of where I live and work. I think it makes you very good at certain things, but they may not be any use on Traitors.

In particular, in my opinion, Stephen is good at the Arts, particularly literature, and we are impressed because he knows so much more about those things than most people do but they do know something. We don’t expect to know much about science beyond what we learned at school so it doesn’t come up in general conversation, and one scientist may not know much about a completely different branch of science. Scientists go to the theatre or cinema, read novels and watch plays on TV far more than Arts people listen to science topics, apart from on Radio 4.

This is probably a minority opinion, though.

It's Jonathan denying having said it, and Clare also agreeing with Ruth that he did mention the alliance, that is making him look guilty though, so I do think she's got conviction in her theory now.

She is not the only one who suspects Jonathan. JR let slip with Joe last week, so he is on Joe's radar. Joe went for Tameka though even though he gave the spiel about his Big Dog theory.

I love how they're all so, well, flabbergasted about it being Cat. She's playing it very well.

I fear it’s Ruth and they’ll go for the double-bluff for the hell of it.

As Jaz discovered, if you correctly traitor-hunt at the roundtable it can protect you from murder. But the slebs aren’t playing for the cash, so more likely to choose the thrill of risky game-play.

What did he give away? The person who is getting murdered in tomorrows episode?

I haven’t heard anyone say that in about 20 years. It makes warm to her despite her lipstick, which I’m not enjoying. Excellent leopard skin blouse, though. And rightness, obviously. Go, Ruth!

Yes. Please don’t kill the thinking woman’s eye candy!

I suspect that Props just handed them some clean ones.😁

In fairness we've all seen much worse logic for picking out potential traitors, it's not illogical to think that if Jonathan was a faithful he would be keen to keep that original alliance going to help get them all through the first few votes and wonder if the reason he hasn't is because he has a new alliance with his traitor buddies.

Ah, Jaz-atha Christie, so near yet so far!

I agree with others that I don't think David has had enough screen time to be murdered just yet, I think it's between Ruth & Charlotte, probably Ruth although I do keep changing my mind.

Indeed. Some of the ‘logic’ is quite demented? Who was it who voted for Celia on the grounds that she came into the bar ‘very confidently’ after the traitor-picking. I mean, she’s a grande dame of British acting in her 70s, used to the limelight — why wouldn’t she be confident?

If I were trying to throw suspicion on her, I’d do it on the basis of the Charming Fart and her killer comic timing in owning it. I’d say it was bloody good acting and gave her immediate national treasure status, thereby disarming suspicion.

I don’t recall Jonathan saying that the people in the car should all be in an alliance together. I thought it was a more general comment that people in the game should start to make alliances. He probably said “we” meaning everyone not just Ruth and the people in the car. That’s how I took it, anyway

Until the Round Table we hadn’t seen much of Charlotte tonight. I thought she was going to be safe, but perhaps not now.

And, as they’ve already said in Traitors Tower, Charlotte’s an incorrect traitor-hunter and that can be used to set her up for banishment on the basis she’s misdirecting.

Clare Balding is whip-smart and good at reading people. I like Cat and Celia too. Stephen Fry is so incredibly pleased with himself it's irritating.

Glad to come here and see the vipers saw through the sexist "big dog" theory. I don't like rugby Joe much but do like after life Joe. Agree David O v handsome.

Never seen a Traitors series before but think it could be quite addictive!

@BungledBundle its very addictive! But don’t worry you’ve got 3 other UK series to binge watch when this is done! Not to mention tin the US/AUS/NZ ones!

It's all about him 😂. No one else. V

So, how long he lasts at the Castle, then?
