Welcome to Thread 11 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 - this is a mid episode thread change so do not read on if you are not up to date with the live broadcast!

The floor is yours…

You pay for your license and nobody can watch it before you.

The second envelope!

Yes. It bothers me a bit if the reaction is that severe that they cannot show it rather than just a normal “fuck”. It suggests bad choice of contestants.

We don’t know why her reaction wasn’t shown - perhaps we will see it tomorrow with whoever is banished. Usually its both together.

Traitors can win together, it’s not impossible.

I don’t think Faraz is sneaky at all, but I wish he’d gone for Rachel a bit more

Jack is going to win this and I think I'll probably be even angrier than I was about Meryl (season 1) and Leanne (season 3)

They really should have murdered Faz ages ago and kept Adam in.

Of course. I think it could shake your confidence though in that you realise you’re maybe easily fooled and that could set doubt in about who you trust in your real life and whether any of those people could be lying to you.

How cringe for Roxy to watch the replay of Rachel reassuring her that she’s not a traitor.
Did she think she was on a show to make friends??

There is nothing to stop two traitors sharing at the end.

What the Jeff has Roxy done to her lips

It's an intense, unique environment - of course you can feel you have made a friend over that period of time.

Whoever really thinks that has forgotten the name of the game (and never watched any past series)

Its evident that many of them do stay friends after the show. Its not a surprise after an intense enclosed experience that some do forge longer links

It’s one thing knowing it in theory, another to keep emotional distance when you’re living it.

I meant the only way one traitor can win. I don’t think two traitors have ever won.

No way

he was hedging all the way

Most contestants do realise it’s a game and not get upset when others ‘lie’ …. when the game is literally called the traitors

Catching up but do we not see Roxy finding out ? I was so looking forward to seeing her gullible face
Roxy crying are you a traitor Rachel ?
Rachel no
Roxy oh ok phew

These secret connections honestly add nothing to the show

Why is everyone sooooo shocked about Judy/Roxy?

They had a son and mum 2 years ago

its not that shocking is it?

With that viewpoint I don't think you'd be at risk of making any friends...

That’s a possibility.

Agreed!

It hasn’t happened in the UK version, but it has in some international versions

One of the international versions (Germany??) three traitors won together and had to choose split or steal but they all chose split so they shared the money. The clip is on YouTube in German, it's lovely.
