Welcome to Thread 4 of Traitors 2026.

This thread runs at TV pace so do not read any further if you are not up to date with the live broadcast.

While we welcome posters discussing their theories and speculating on relationships/connections between players, please don’t posts spoilers from elsewhere that may ruin things for those of us who like to see things unfold over the course of the series.

The story so far:

Traitors
Hugo
Rachel
Stephen
Fiona (Secret Traitor)

Murdered
Netty
Ben

Banished
Judy (Faithful)
Hugo (Traitor)
Ross (Faithful)

3 candidates for face-to-face murder tonight - Maz, Reece and Sam. Who will it be?

I don't think anybody's mentioned this, but could Reece be Fiona's son? I say this on no more evidence than Reece is a Welsh name (though different spelling), but he's about the right age. If he doesn't go tonight, that will raise my suspicions especially if Fiona persuaded Rachel to keep him.

That might explain why he wasn’t more upset at her uselessness at the task.

I thought he seemed pretty upset! And then resigned. But if she was going to consciously fail the task why would she choose her own son as the one to save. They got to choose who to save.

It may not have been in the presence of or got back to the traitors.
So he may have said something but this may have been edited out.
But if it is the case that he’s never brought it up to anyone he thoroughly deserves to go.

Checking in.

I don’t think there are any more connections. And yes, I don’t see why they bother as it doesn’t make any odds really.

You could be right about being Fiona's son, interesting point!

I thought the whole choosing people thing was so brutal, not nice at all. Worse than 'being murdered'.

I think he’s too young, I think Fiona would have older children. I think she would seem younger if she had children as young as him if that makes any sense?! I also think they have had enough connections for one season!

I'm a similar age to Fiona and have a 28yr old son, so I don't think he's too young

I agree about that task - I thought leaving one person out was a very cruel set up and must have been horrible for Sam.

Did anyone else think Jessie jumping on Jack and wrapping her legs around him was a very intimate thing to do to someone you supposedly just met a few days ago?

We're 4 episodes in and only 5 people have been eliminated. 6 if you count whoever is getting murdered overnight. So there will be 16 people alive at day 5's breakfast.

By my calculations there are going to have to be a couple of double murders to get the numbers down to a manageable level for the final. 🍿

I agree that Fiona seems older than 62, but I think the act she's putting on is more 'ditzy' rather than 'little old lady'.

I like her. She's v funny and charming and I'm enjoying her delight at being able to 'murder' people 😁 she may run out of road soon though with the ditzy act

I don’t mean it isn’t possible, it’s mathematically very typical - I just don’t see her as someone who has kids that age. She strikes me as someone who might have had kids younger and they would therefore be older than Reece. Based on nothing at all, of course 🤣

Especially as they have no phone or form of communication with support network and loved ones and go “home” to a hotel room on their own. On last thread someone said they had consultants on mental health, I’m not sure how that one passed by. It didn’t add to the game, it was just very hurtful.

I agree.

I don’t particularly like Sam, but that was uncalled for. I also wonder if it will make others think he’s more likely to be a Traitor if he survives, as the “logic” will be that of course he was the one that nobody chose because the other traitors knew he couldn’t be murdered.

the constant reference to the "Who's Who 1934" is because it's going to be a lever that opens a secret room

I thought Fiona switched to being quite arrogant once revealed. The traitors will totally implode and go quickly, they’ve made so many mistakes. Maybe their replacements will be fun.

I’m loving Fiona, would like her to win. Although I like all the contestants this year.

Even if Fiona weren't a traitor, she's not a team player. Her "no" when she was told to hand over the skulls was just peevish.

Apologies. I haven’t read the previous thread so this may have been mentioned before but did anyone pick up last night when Harriet and Amanda were debating at the round table Harriet said something along the lines of Amanda ‘prosecuting’ people. I felt like they both knew each others real jobs? Wondering if they’re secret partners….?

I noticed that aswell. He did also say on uncloaked he didn’t believe Fiona would ever vote him out, with no explanation why he thought that…
Maybe Ross knew Fiona too 🤣

Thanks for the new thread @CaveMum

Maybe the twist is that Ross is connected to everyone!

😂

@Iwanttohibernate

Angela Scanlon did Strictly a couple of years ago so it's unlikely she will return next year. FWIW I think she is lovely.

She did hand them over though
