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…

Bugger. Not surprised though.

They had to take the risk

100%

now she doesn’t think it’s Stephen 🤣

Stephen has signed his own death warrant I think.

But does this implicate Stephen?

Matt looks pleased

Was Jessie wearing those clothes last night ? I thought she was in yellow?!! X

It is very obvious but he’s hoping it’s too obvious

It was a gamble.

Stephen’s face is matching his cardy

Risky strategy.

They’re mad if they recruit Matthew

Matthew is annoying me. He’s too smug and convinced he’s going to be recruited

Yeah, I want Matthew to be murdered.

Awww. “Here they all come; chatting bollocks.”
RIP Jessie x

I hope they murder Matt.

Why did Matthew want Jessie gone in the first place? I can't remember

Only if one of them goes, and even then maybe not.

I'm looking forward to Matt realising he's been murdered not recruited when he opens the paper.

Rachel may have made a mistake with her breakfast announcement - that hasn’t gone well for anyone so far

Calm down Rachel. Dramatic breakfast announcements haven’t tended to end well!

Have to say there is some lovely knitwear in this episode.

Good deflection, Stephen.

She does seem pretty fireproof. I don't know how.
