There’s a lot of subconscious ageism in traitors, as well as racism, in previous years it’s nearly always been the oldest person who’s been voted out first – and Judy is one of the older people this time.

Although interestingly I felt this was the opposite on the celeb version - maybe cos the older ones knew each other better/were more famous?

Yes, that was interesting. The 'big dogs' were older.

The thing with Who’s who is that it lists who is nobility. Perhaps someone is a Lady/Lord/Duchess/Honourable and we don’t know.

I read somewhere, don't think it was on here, but would it be possible for one of the 3 normal traitors to also be the secret one? We don't know how Claudia chose the secret traitor or what was said to them. It will be really interesting at the end of the game to see how they were picked and their reaction.

We did see Claude touching a 4th unknown shoulder

Harriet is, I think.

Harriet is, I think.

That would be on her Wikipedia page though.

TheGreenBow · 03/01/2026 19:18

I’m fairly sure it’s Roxy now. Why was she so certain her mum wasn’t a traitor? And then Judy guessed her as possibly being a traitor when she was on Uncloaked so must have picked up on her acting differently.

Although I started off thinking it was Amanda, then Jack, then Ellie. Now Roxy. So only changed my mind a few times 🤣

LadyGAgain · 03/01/2026 19:18

I think every single contestant is linked to at least one other in some way - blood, adoption, marriage, long term partner. Every single one.

Alpacajigsaw · 03/01/2026 19:20

Apparently PG Wodehouse had a play called Who’s Who which was staged in 1934

As someone said though did she not say she wanted to be a faithful. I remember seeing an interview with Claudia re a previous series where she said they didn’t pick people as traitors who didn’t want to be one.

It is, her dad was a life peer, I think.

Someone on Reddit managed to reverse the second list of names that the traitors were given. The handwriting is completely different than the first list so I assume it is either production staff writing the names or the ST is very good at disguising their writing. I’m ruling handwriting out of any of my ST theories for now either way.

Ooh, what if there is more than one Secret Traitor?

I don't think so.
Claudia speaks about them like they are on their own.

Nah

sanityisamyth · 03/01/2026 19:43

The handwriting of the secret traitor from Ep1 and that of Roxy’s whiteboard on Ep2 is strangely similar …

But how much of it is unconscious bias on the part of the audience making assumptions about the contestants' motives?

Runningismyhappyplace50 · 03/01/2026 19:46

Do they not film them saying they want to be a faithful and a traitor and just choose what they show in the edit?

Did they show all the casts response?

WonderfulSmith · 03/01/2026 19:47

Sorry, I got it wrong, I was thinking of Debretts which lists the nobility. Who’s Who lists nobility and people from the arts etc.

Edited

They said on Uncloaked that only one person said they wanted to be faithful.

WonderfulSmith · 03/01/2026 19:49

Stop with all the sodding trailers you bastards.

dapsnotplimsolls · 03/01/2026 19:51

I hope the older ones stay in.

WonderfulSmith · 03/01/2026 19:52

I don’t think is should be any of them, other than Reece to just cut down the regulation issue young white men.
