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.

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…

Because she’s a traitor and therefore knows exactly who she can trust so she doesn’t need to waste her energy, seconding guessing herself or trying to deduce who the traitor is, she can just crack on play the social game.

Jade looks very pissed off about the dinner party.

No murder? How are they going to get the numbers down enough with only three episodes left?

Oh not a boring dinner party.

Ohhhh dinner party night. Secret mission maybe?

Another faithful bites the dust !
.. oh, but there’s cheese 🧀 .. let’s eat that

Because she takes control and speaks authoritatively without getting emotional. She usually goes first at the RTs so she controls the narrative much of the time. She didn't do it tonight because she was inviting infighting amongst the faithfuls so as not to attract attention to Stephen.

Bit early for The Dinner Party?

Dinner party = murder in Plain Sight à la Alan Carr?

Or playing an extremely clever game.

The way to make it to the end is to make the Traitors believe you’re loyal to them - and not very switched on.

And she’s sowed seeds for Stephen, which may help banish him in the final.

Isn’t there usually a murder at the dinner party?

The deflection from Stephen was well done - they pushed gently in the direction several were already going.

Nah, it's about time. You need the right numbers. Not too many, not too few.

Murder in plain sight?

Still quite a few left for the dinner party stage. I assume there’s something coming up that means no need for a murder. Something like when Maddy was offered to take part of the prize pot in exchange for leaving the game maybe?

Stays calm…

Surely a dinner party means a murder in plain sight??

Love Jade’s dress

If you stay calm in chaos people will assume you know what you are talking about.

That’s what I meant by secret mission

Quite

Wonder if the second envelope will be opened on Uncloaked tonight?

The dinner party is boring.

Claudia said no murder tonight though so I don’t think it’s a plain sight murder.

Yes, Roxy is. Flying under the radar.

Lovely Faraaz.

Yes. That stupid grave game tomorrow
