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…

R will do him in.

That’s true.. hopefully she’ll be banished soon

PinkPanther57 · 14/01/2026 21:08

LighthouseLED · 14/01/2026 21:07

But not yet. I think she wants to take him through as far as possible, not have to recruit late and rely on someone unknown.

Yep.

LighthouseLED · 14/01/2026 21:08

PinkPanther57 · 14/01/2026 21:08

What happens if you recruit someone with a shield?

That’s fine - the shield just protects from murder

Harriet wanted out.

Yes, and I wonder why. For Harriet it was more important to name Rachel than stay in the game.

FBI training….Rachel is desperate to win.
Harriet, meanwhile, wants to be right!

After seeing the last few episodes I am convinced something happened in the house to cause tempers to rise. They have banished three middle-aged women very recently and I wonder if the two things are connected. In fact everyone over 50 has gone now.

Thelittlegreyone · 14/01/2026 21:06

Do you think Rachel will ever turn on Stephen?

She always said she wouldn't.

pouletvous · 14/01/2026 21:09

SweetBaklava · 14/01/2026 21:06

What a horrible person… faithful or not I'm
glad she’s out of the programme. I’ve no idea what her books are like but I’ve no plans to line her pockets by finding out. I don’t recall anyone being that nasty in attitude on the show before.

It’s a game. It’s not real life

RubieChewsDay · 14/01/2026 21:09

That was an absolute shit show of an episode, a very entertaining one but absolutely nothing played out how I thought it would!

SoScarletItWas · 14/01/2026 21:09

PinkPanther57 · 14/01/2026 21:08

What happens if you recruit someone with a shield?

Shields only protect against murder.

If the choice given to the recruited player is ‘accept or be murdered by default’ then I am not sure!!

Sometimes that is the choice. Sometimes the would-be recruit can decline, and carry on in the game.

Starandflowers · 14/01/2026 21:09

Oh god Maddy and Harriet are on Uncloaked - two of the worse players in all the series. I’ve turned it over can’t listen to half an hour of Maddy

FourNaanJeremy · 14/01/2026 21:10

pouletvous · 14/01/2026 21:07

Yes, she’s highly irritating

telling the story about the mirror. Nobody cared, they wanted the juicy bits

She just wants everyone’s attention at all times.
Not going to lie she would drive me up the fucking wall if I was in the castle

The oldies are always out early, ageism is more rife than racism.

3point5 · 14/01/2026 21:10

I am baffled by Harriet's strategy
All I can think is that she wanted out of the game for some reason. Same with Fiona

Itwasallyellow2 · 14/01/2026 21:10

Thelittlegreyone · 14/01/2026 21:06

Do you think Rachel will ever turn on Stephen?

Absolutely she would. She wants to win so badly that she will do anything to achieve that. Winning won’t mean sharing.

littlbrowndog · 14/01/2026 21:10

And Claire balding who I can’t stand

PinkPanther57 · 14/01/2026 21:10

LighthouseLED · 14/01/2026 21:08

That’s fine - the shield just protects from murder

& u can let everyone know?

hoxtonbabe · 14/01/2026 21:11

dapsnotplimsolls · 14/01/2026 21:08

I need a lie-down after that!

Ah come on! You are made of strong stuff! You get through weeks of MAFS without breaking a sweat 😅

SoScarletItWas · 14/01/2026 21:11

Piggywaspushed · 14/01/2026 21:09

She always said she wouldn't.

I actually don’t think she would turn on Stephen. I know I’m #TeamRachel since the start, but I genuinely believe that. (Waits to be proved wrong…)

LighthouseLED · 14/01/2026 21:11

After seeing the last few episodes I am convinced something happened in the house to cause tempers to rise.

It definitely seems like there’s been some kind of bust up

BlueLimes · 14/01/2026 21:11

Oh why do we have to see Maddy again

FourNaanJeremy · 14/01/2026 21:11

What an episode though. It might not have played out as I hoped, but I am absolutely entertained

PinkPanther57 · 14/01/2026 21:11

3point5 · 14/01/2026 21:10

Yep. Something we’ve not seen.

Piggywaspushed · 14/01/2026 21:11

Anyone else getting ads for Harriet's books now??!

littlbrowndog · 14/01/2026 21:11

Jeez Maddy 😔

PinkPanther57 · 14/01/2026 21:11

The ‘FBI training’ had them agape.

C8H10N4O2 · 14/01/2026 21:11

BlueLimes · 14/01/2026 21:11

She seems to be available for the opening of an envelope. She drove me nuts in her series.
