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…

Agree. And would be great entertainment: he’ll think it’s a recruitment.

Roxy is so thick if she seriously thinks that James could possibly be a traitor.

No one is realising that Rachel’s doth protest to much, so to speak, and her careful, considered arguments could be turned against her.

Not sure if I’ve explained that well.

Harsh, very harsh.

Did Faraaz get voted for?

Jade should just go for the yourselfs!

Aargh, yourself again. I hope Jade gets her thesis proof read.

Thanks for the new thread

is Ellie going to reveal her relationship with Ross

she has a phd but still says yourself

Well I think they’ve banished the last of the clever faithfuls.

I hadn’t realised Matt was picking up so many votes tonight. They may well recruit him as a sacrifice after all.

Phew. Stephen is safe.

I can only presume it's the pecking order that forms with any group of people and she's sat at the top of it.

Studying for one I thought she said rather than doctored?

To be fair, Roxy has come across as thick throughout.

I swear, by the time they get to the RT, they have completely forgotten who last got murdered and anything it might mean.

Who'd have thought at the start of the episode that Ellie would go?!

Stephen was lucky. I thought they'd be a huge discussion about Jessie's suspicions and there would be some votes for him.

I think she bigged it up too much, to the point people will remember that she led the charge.

I think in Rachel’s position I’d have voted Ellie because I think she is more of a risk to the traitors than Jade. Jade is little risk to the traitors and may well get the boot tomorrow.

I think they’re all a bit scared of her too. Which is why they never challenge her.

Yes, still studying. I hope her supervisor has words.

Oh it’s the dinner party

I love James and quite like Jack. How come no-one ever nominates Roxy?

There’s a lesson for all of us there. Strategy at work etc.
