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…

Nobody - it was Sam

This episode is boring.

Sam had the only shield and he's gone!

No, that task was gold.

Will they recruit Matt tonight?

I’m so frustrated on Jessie’s behalf

I so want them to murder Matthew - no son, we do NOT have a deal 🤣

Can they murder or seduce at any time?

He's very sure that the Traitors will keep the deal...

I wonder if she’s the one who’s been doing Rachel’s amazing hairstyles?

We’ve seen her with her hair tied back haven’t we? Mine is shorter than hers and I can get about half of it tied up.

I don’t think that any of them are clever TBF.

This episode is boring

the task was boring too

Wow!

Oh Matt gets the shower scene.

Could be like a fidget thing, twang it when she gets uncomfortable.

Noooo, leave Jessie alone.

That's surely foreshadowing...

Murder Matt

Got to be going then, didn't Daly get offed after his shower scene (Alan Carr said gay guys were furious with him for that!)

Don't they usually stand under the shower during the shower scene??

It will be Faraaz I think. If it's Jessie Stephen is silly.

It's a good double bluff, I'd be sad to see Jessie go but I can see the logic in "why would I kill her, she's accusing me?".

I’d rather lose Matt out of those three.

I think it will be Jessie or Matt. Faraaz doesn’t make sense at this stage.
