Welcome to Thread 8 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)
Harriet (Faithful)

Jessie, James and Adam are the potential murder candidates, but both Jessie and James have shields.

The floor is yours…

Go Jessie!

Jessie’s good.

I think Jade will go this time

Stephen is definitely channelling Alan Carr tonight.

He could be in trouble.

Wonder who Rachel will go for?

Jessie has talked most sense but I don't think they'll listen to her.

I reckon it's Sam. Boring.

Go Jessie.

Look at Rachel’s face!

Hard evidence?

how is that ever going to be possible ?

Jessie was really good then. She'll be bumped off if Stephen stays.

As I said last night, it’s Jonathan Fucking Ross all over again!

I think Stephen is in trouble

Rachel is playing a brilliant game. I wouldn't be sad if she won.

I know that in the American one they do get styled so they are country chic. I don’t know how styled they are in the UK. They will have received wardrobe instructions because some things don’t film well on camera

Jade has me searching for fat wool and cardigan patterns using it.

I’ve found the wool, but only in 3 colours. It’s a quick knit but I couldn’t finish it before the series ends.

Male voices speaking out tend to be perceived as assertive and informed, female voices tend to be perceived as loud or aggressive. In Jessie’s case I suspect the stammer doesn’t help, even though she has been spot on with Stephen from the outset.

Ooh Matt is picking up votes.

It is hard to to be fair

She won't be now because it leads back to him.

I think this is what it is. Sad but true even though she is making perfect sense ( more so that Harriet yesterday!) I think they just dismiss her because of her stammer. I hope they all lose to be honest

I do think Matthew knows more than he is letting on.

Jade needs to stop saying “yourself”

Surely they can’t kill Jessie now

Oh I liked Sam!

Unless they think it’s a double bluff

Ugh Sam. TBF, I'm amazed he lasted this long!
