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…

James shows danger of letting any Traitor know you’re on to them.

So many of them think Rachel would be a good traitor but don't suspect her??

Stephen looks increasingly in trouble.

Bcos they’re eejits!!

Well done Ellie! Stephen is either a traitor…or a fairhful

Yes!

Adam did but didn’t dare say.

Stephen is in trouble.

She’s not wrong!

All the annoying people asking why they’re still in

God they have really messed up. They split up the scooby gang too soon (James, Jessie, Jack).

Will Rachel go for Stephen?

Stephen got too many right, he’s drawn attention.

Also interesting that neither Rachel nor Stephen realised most people think she'd be the best Traitor..

Did Matt have more food on his plate from one shot to the next then?

Rachel will want to save Stephen rather than deal with an unknown at this stage. I wonder how she will try to steer the RT. Sounds like the only other name being discussed seriously is Jade.

Oooft that dripping tap annoys the heck out of me!

Yes, Stephen could be banished. He's overplayed it

And thinking it’s because some cares enough to keep them in rather than they simply haven’t noticed them.

Or because they’re thick and therefore less of a threat

Faraaz is far too sweet to be there.

Is the round table earlier than usual?

Come on Rachel, bring the goods.

Gonna be a long one 🤣

Can Rachel please bring out a hair styling book? I can’t do plaits like that.
