Welcome to Thread 7 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 (as at end of Ep 6):

Traitors
Hugo
Rachel
Stephen
Fiona (Secret Traitor)

Murdered
Netty
Ben
Maz
Reece

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

This thread is starting mid-way through Episode 7, so goodness only knows what is going to happen in the Round Table Showdown that is brewing.

The floor is yours…

Will Rachel turn on Stephen?

I think they'd make a deal that if it's down to one of them being found out, then in that case it would be okay. Or as Rachel will spin it, I had to do it, it was just too close to one of us being found out. And Stephen says it's okay I understand.

Roxy is such a PITA.

Ed has only ever been there for the Celebrity edition. They normally put them in pairs - 1 banished, 1 murdered - but that doesn’t always work out.

Whose going to top the next big reveal ?
" I'm ax mi5 agent ", " I'm trained by the CIA "??

Writer, thank you for the Essex footage.

“Faithful boyband” 🤣

I am actually starting to think that Stephen will throw Rachel under the bus in a twist that we never saw coming.

The plain white blokes could all be one person, in not entirely sure. They all just fade into the background and have the same sort of personality. Dull, I'm afraid.

I wanted to see more of the others like Judi, Ross, Nettie and Hugo. We were robbed.

Stephen has said in the past he needs to protect himself...so I wouldn't say him voting off Rachel is absurd

Maybe he's not part of the man merge, I've never had a problem remembering who he is, just the others.

I wanted to see more of Maz. Hardly any screen time and then he was murdered.

I've got a tally of Rachel's mean comments 😂 (lighthearted) just for balance.

I like taking shields away from faithfuls.

When you tell a lie, you are a liar (patronising much)

Was Hugo this bad in the turret? Was he? Was he? Was he? God I'm joking, derrr.

Matt and Roxy are as thick as shit

Same I was so angry when she kept interrupting her. Actually I’m still angry. Maybe I am Harriet 🤣

@Hungrycaterpillarsmummy agree with all but 4.

I'm a fan girl but I was in awe of harriet

Id like to know however how she could get it so wrong re loads of them being traitors ?

Ah ok, I didn’t realise that, thanks. Still prefer it though! 🤣

It’s a pity that Harriet took the focus off Rachel and named her other suspects. Better to have kept the laser on Rachel only, as it’s now distracted the other faithfuls

Where has that guy Adam come from? One of the random NPCs?

James and his horrible sideburns and hideous t shirt need to bog off too

I really liked Harriet too, so I'm disappointed she is out.
I think she just said those names, as the ones who turned against her at the RT? Dunno but was bizarre

There are still 12 players left in and only 4 episodes left to get rid of people. They need to get a bit of a move on, really.

Well Harriet would ‘definitely’ notice the typo. Maybe YOU are Harriet (plot twist 🤣). In all seriousness though, I guess any of the players could be on here!

If Stephen and Rachel both make it to the final then I can see him winning. Would the faithful really not want to test if Rachel is actually a traitor after all the heat she's had on her?

Same, I wanted to see more Maz

Sorry I can’t find the posts that mention this but I think it’s a really good shout that Harriet may have been angry at the production team for some reason. Maybe she felt she’d been set up in getting the smoking mirror (I’m convinced that was set up so that those three players got the smoking mirrors (from the group that won)). It wouldn’t have been such good TV if Roxy had asked the questions.

You clearly weren’t listening to the podcast properly. What Richard and Marina were discussing was the fact that the scheduled publication date for Harriet’s new book was a full MONTH after the last episode of Traitors and Richard was saying he could not understand why they didn’t bring it forward to coincide with the finale as a that would maximise sales. Wait a month and many have lost interest. Marina wondered if maybe the NDA prevented Harriet from even telling her publisher she’d been on the show but Richard explained that plenty of people knew before broadcast that she had been on it.
