Welcome to Thread 6 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. Whilst most discussion will be on the current series, inevitably people will refer to previous series/players/winners so reader beware if you’ve not seen the 3 previous editions, or the celebrity version.

While we welcome posters discussing their theories and speculating on relationships/connections between players, please don’t post 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:

No murder cliffhanger after episode 6, but Matthew (aka Interchangeable Male #3) has taken an interesting approach. We wait to see what cunning questions Harriet can come up with.

The floor is yours…

Jazzy music

She’s in barrister mode. I wouldn’t want to be cross examined by her in a courtroom!

Rachel needs a shield, if they can work for banishment.

She doesn't know that.

Oh my god my hands actually hurt from clapping at the TV 🤣

That was my reaction - she said she wanted to put the wind up them and that performance has certainly achieved that goal!

It can't protect from banishment.

Ah I missed the first few episodes- this is crucial. I’ll have to go back and watch.

Why didn’t they write their own names down when she asked who the traitors were?

Yeah. She’s gone down the barrister Hugo ego trip.

Matt has shocking knitwear taste

Is she not hamming it up for the effect? Barristers are such performers.

That was bloody awful from Harriet. I really don’t like her at all

Stephen is going to be the great Alan Carr-esque survivor of all this.

Even if Harriet gets Rachel out, she’s next on the murder block surely? Because if Rachel’s out then Stephen has to recruit, which would be Matthew, and then he’d want to get Harriet out for banishing Rachel.

Stephen said he has a plan, none of Stephens plans have worked so well so far 😂

Harriet acting like someone’s committed an actual murder 🤣

Harriet will have to work quickly and banish Rachel
today

If she tells the others what the Traitors said it will be very suspicious if she gets murdered quickly after the next round table.

He’s increasingly reminding me of Baldrick, for any other Blackadder fans

I’m not sure about this. I still think the best tactic is to hold your cards close to your chest. Even if you suspect a traitor. Aim to stay in to the end then take whoever is left on.

Harriet is going early. Even if she gets rid of Rachel. More will be recruited and then she’ll get murdered…

Not just a plan - a cunning plan!

I've gone off Harriet.

I think Harriet has made a mistake and she won't convince enough people to go for Rachel.

Rachel is bricking it
