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 think Fiona was jealous that Amanda told Rachel and not her.
the power has gone to her head.
so relieved Reece was saved, by chance at least. so unfair, for nothing, like Ross. what was he supposed to have done?
amanda was ridiculous saying she must be believed when she didnt really have any names at all, could not back up her Jade claim

why did Amanda say in Uncloaked there were 5?
and why are there two envelopes?

The same as Alan Carr!

i guess she already went for Hugo

Wow what an episode.
Amanda was shite she was fully hooked by a traitor and was going after a total harmless faithful.
Fiona has really messed it all up she’s going to get Harriet to go for Rachel and do a speech at the round table just like she did for Hugo everyone will believe her Rachel will be out or Rachel and Fiona will go obvious traitor and triaror to each other. Rachel should of just kept quiet about the detective thing because she’s look suspicious anyway when everyone followed Amanda’s advise and voted jade out and she was then a faithful.
im way too invested

Just caught up. Oh my word. Poor Maz. So glad Reece was saved. He seems so sweet, and I love that his job is a sweetshop assistant, as I relate so much more to that than to barristers and detectives etc.
But the traitor vs traitor thing?! What??? Fiona was so out of order. I actually think she's been at best out of control, and at worst very spiteful, and I really hope Stephen & Rachel have each other's backs, that they honour the pledge they made to never put one another's name down. Fiona needs to go.
Jessie is a brilliant faithful, and I hope she goes far. Faraaz is great too. I'm definitely team faithful. But I like Rachel & Stephen as a traitor pair too. I know a lot of people don't like Rachel, but I just think she's a very serious game player, and I reckon she's probably lovely in real life. Though I'm from Northern Ireland so probably biased! We've got Matthew as well as a faithful, so I'm supporting him too. We look after our own. An incredible episode overall. I just watched it on my tablet in bed, but wish I'd waited to watch it on a bigger screen. I might have to watch it again... 🤭

I thought Rachel was really on to a winner with her play. She says what she knows about Amanda, Jade is voted out, them Sam. They're both faithfuls but it's not Rachel's fault because she was just following her clever friend's advice!

I agree with what was said previously about Fiona. She was used to having all the power and didn't like it one bit when Rachel knew something she didn't. It will be fun to watch this play out. All of Rachel's reactions seem really believable and Fiona may have shot herself in the foot. If Fiona is voted out because of this, there will be no stopping Rachel😄

That concept originated with Harry, I'd love to know how he would have dealt with Fiona.

Thinking back how popular do we think Fiona is in the castle? I don't think she is that liked which might help Rachel. Rachel's laugh when she was accused also helped her defence it was so natural and "what ridiculousness is this"..

Worried we’ll run out of thread while I’m on the school run, so I’ve started the next one ready but fill this one up first to save confusion!

😂😂@C8H10N4O2Thars exactly what I thought when I read the comment.

Stephen’s partner isn’t Matthew, he (forgot his name) posted on X saying he was proud of him.

I’m confused, Reece hasn’t left!

Fiona has been playing her own game from the start & can't shift her ST status.

She brought Rachel's name up in the car on the way to a mission when she was an ST and when there was no reason to.

I think she loved being an ST & decided from the start that she wanted to get rid of Stephen & Rachel and recruit her own "yes" people as traitors who she would then also throw under the bus to get to the winning stage.

Or she has been instructed by the production team to stir things up?
I hope not & I hope Traitors doesn't get meddled with & staged in the way other reality shows do. 🤞

I don't think Fiona has the power and influence she thinks she has. Only Reecec seems to like her.

I feel like Celebrity Traitors is almost a different game because they all know each other whereas with normal Traitors they are strangers ( previous series) or have these connections with one other person ( this series). I feel like AC would have been sprung in normal Traitors ITSWIM.

But I feel like Stephen has had a reprieve because of the Fiona/ Rachel thing- it’s like the equivalent of someone banging the saucepan on the other side of the kitchen when the velociraptors have got you pinned down 🤣

Poster clarified later that she had meant Ross not Reece.

Celeb Traitors also doesn’t have the same drive to win the prize pot. Of course they want to win for their charity, but for “real” players the money is potentially life changing. That gives it more of an edge.

celeb traitors didnt want to be mean to each other

Me too!

For some reason Fiona just seems unpleasant and annoying - eg the comment about misleading traffic wardens.
I cant recall what she said about traffic wardens
What did she say?
Was she being smug when she said it.

I’m surprised Fiona AND Rachel have been so naive. Even before Fiona did her bizarre accusation, Rachel doing her big announcement about Amanda was so unnecessary. Rachel was flying nicely under the radar and all she’s done is made herself all “important” and therefore a potential target. And now with Fiona going rogue, they’re both gonners.

I really don't like Fiona. Seems very smug at times and it definitely went to her head when she was made ST and had all the power. I think she doesn't like sharing that power now, and didn't like Rachel getting the spotlight last night. She comes across as that MIL we'd all hate to have.

I think Rachel is playing a good game, although I don't particularly want a traitor to win. I'd much rather it was someone like Farazz, Jessie or Reece. Personally I wouldn't have called everyone together to share the ex-career news about Amanda, I'd have brought it up into conversations with the groups as they were dissecting the round table shenanigans. Although it was interesting information, it seems over the top to have made such a big deal about gathering people to share it.

Looking forward to seeing how Rachel responds to Fiona trying to throw her under the bus.

What a wild episode it was last night.
Don’t particularly like Fiona or Rachel so will be happy if either of them go tonight. It was ridiculous of Rachel to do the big announcement - should’ve just told a couple of her besties and let the news spread. And Fiona just completely lost the plot. I don’t think it was a production nudge, she looked really angry!
Also can’t believe that no-one picked up on her not getting the skulls - she cba to save Reece cos she’s a traitor.
Jessie ftw as far as I’m concerned. She’s the only one with a brain in there! Would be happy for Reece to win too but he won’t. He’s a nice lad.
Alsi v confused with the interchangeable lads -l I keep on saying to DH - which one is that again?

Just watching on catch up this morning.

Watching the 7-7 round table vote.

I am concerned for the impact on poor Reece's mental health.

He is struggling so much. I hope he is getting support.
He seems so innocent and sweet and in way over his head.

I found it uncomfortable viewing.

How embarrassing for Amanda to disclose her secret to a traitor of all people.
Fiona is batshit crazy. I hope she goes next.
Now that Harriet is listening to Jessie, hopefully Stephen will be outed as a traitor and they work out who the other two are.
The heat should be off Reece now. Like others, I don’t get why he didn’t speak about Stephen and Rachel being at the family tree portrait, and Rachel asking him to leave. 🤔
