Welcome to Thread 9 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 floor is yours…

Too much crying going on.

Fewer votes than some of the others

Poor Jade she has had a tougher time

I think Stephen is safe based on discussion.

Exactly - as have a few others. I’m bored with Jade contributing so little and just complaining every time she is questioned.

No it’s a daft theory. The connections that were there, we were told as soon as one person was banished/murdered. People seem obsessed with connections unfortunately, I hope they don’t have any next series.

Exactly. She really feels persecuted. It’s silly.

The way they all sat back and listened to Rachel like what she was saying was Gospel is telling. She holds so much influence I think she has a real chance of winning this.

Is Roxy annoying because we know she’s wrong or because she’s annoying?

Jade's defence was good - not over emotional, set out her store. It must be really difficult to feel you're constantly being pointed at.

Faithfuls are all over the place.

Ellie fucked it by crying, I think.

Oh, now Jade's fucked it.

(But I absolutely get WHY they're crying.)

The whole point is to accuse people of being a traitor.

Jade is just really petulant . It’s a game. Get over it.

I want them to banish Jade. We need the Jade distraction factor out of the way.

They're all wrong but they're not all annoying.

They’re all unlikeable. It’s a shame.

Jade had the misfortune of being in Amanda’s crosshairs early on she’s a Faithful so is bound to be defensive

I think they should murder Matthew tonight

Why does she wield so much power?

Round table is early.

I like Faraaz.

I respect Rachel but I don't like her.

Tie?

A vote for everyone except the traitors

I think there might be a tie and another go around.

Why does she wield so much power?

It's a popularity contest as much as a game of strategy or luck!

I do as well.

The “sticks to what they say they’re going to do” was a direct message to the traitors, wasn’t it?
