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.

give it to jade

EchoedSilence · 16/01/2026 21:01

Give the double vote to Stephen.

MY STUPID BASTARD TV! It hasn't been right since the storm last week! Only bbc1 obviously

Skipping and hiccuping all over the place. I know there's something about a dagger but don't know what!

Traitors choose who gets it and that person gets two votes at tomorrow's RT.

I'd be disappointed to be invited to a dinner party and just be given cheese. No wonder none of them are eating it.

I’d be alright with it as long as there’s quince and grapes 😂

I think the dagger should go to Rachel or Roxy.

Rachel as the traitor with less heat. Roxy as she’s both under the radar and stupid.

IHadaMarvelousTimeRuiningEverything · 16/01/2026 21:01

I'd give the dagger to Jade. She's already under suspicion and isn't she already suspicious of one of the other faithful?

WestwardHo1 · 16/01/2026 21:02

And now it's the credits and voiceover man. Clear as day

CarminaBiryani · 16/01/2026 21:02

Do you think they gave it to Matthew as he wants to get recruited?

CarminaBiryani · 16/01/2026 21:02

I mean, Jade deserves that dagger.

AlwaysRightISwear · 16/01/2026 21:02

I think the person they choose will come under suspicion.

RainbowSnake · 16/01/2026 21:03

SwedishEdith · 16/01/2026 21:00

That was a good question for Jack to ask it revealed a lot about them. Poor Jade. She could be a model.

Is it awful that I instinctively questioned Rachel's story? But, surely no-one would lie about their stories? Rachel's body language is intimidating though - she does take on an "I am the manager" air. Bloody hell, maybe the online FBI course is actually good 😄

They have this conversation at a dinner party every year. I imagine Jack was prompted to ask it!

Rachel mentioned wanting to use the money to make memories with her mum who has dementia during the first episode. I’m pretty sure she’s being genuine.

LighthouseLED · 16/01/2026 21:03

They’ll have given it to one of themselves. They’re right they can then use it to get someone else out, then murder, and it pretty much guarantees one of them makes the final.

CarminaBiryani · 16/01/2026 21:04

LighthouseLED · 16/01/2026 21:00

Yes, I didn’t think that was a good move

I think they get in their cars in alphabetical order 🤣

saltandvinegarchipsticks · 16/01/2026 21:04

IHadaMarvelousTimeRuiningEverything · 16/01/2026 21:01

I'd give the dagger to Jade. She's already under suspicion and isn't she already suspicious of one of the other faithful?

If Jade was a traitor it would be madness to give herself the dagger given the level of suspicion. For me that would confirm her as a faithful.

pouletvous · 16/01/2026 21:04

Ross is back

IS IT???

RainbowSnake · 16/01/2026 21:05

I think it would be unwise for Stephen to have it so soon after Jessie’s murder. I’m not sure who I would give it to.

dapsnotplimsolls · 16/01/2026 21:05

pouletvous · 16/01/2026 21:04

Ross is back

IS IT???

😂

pouletvous · 16/01/2026 21:06

Give it Roxy and tell her who to vote for

TraitorsFan · 16/01/2026 21:06

LighthouseLED · 16/01/2026 21:03

They’ll have given it to one of themselves. They’re right they can then use it to get someone else out, then murder, and it pretty much guarantees one of them makes the final.

Did I hear that it meant they could have 3 votes for one person (implying a faithful) and so they would both be safe? I may not have been concentrating at that point.

EdithBond · 16/01/2026 21:06

LighthouseLED · 16/01/2026 21:03

And stops them getting a double vote. But that’s why it’d be a v risky move.

They got away with the double bluff for Jessie’s murder. And Stephen got most of the Jack in the Box names right. Think it’s pushing it to give it to him.

EchoedSilence · 16/01/2026 21:06

yeah maybe they should give it to Roxy.

CarminaBiryani · 16/01/2026 21:07

Anyone who gets the dagger will think 'who needed me to have this power'.

ThatCyanCat · 16/01/2026 21:07

Roxy is who I'd choose.

Jas, hello! My favourite player ever.

CrushingOnRubies · 16/01/2026 21:07

Ed Gamble makes a good point. When do they find out who has received the dagger.

AlwaysRightISwear · 16/01/2026 21:08

CarminaBiryani · 16/01/2026 21:07

Anyone who gets the dagger will think 'who needed me to have this power'.

Unless they're Roxy.

PinkPanther57 · 16/01/2026 21:08

How many voting tomorrow & would a double vote save anyone in firing line.
