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!

I don’t think Rachel can win now anyway

Course not- she would get a red flame till out by the others at the pit- just to be on safe side

ImVotingForYourself · 22/01/2026 22:08

It will be because she does it with the banished person who we haven't seen yet.

Feel like this editing has really messed up uncloaked as they will have 5 to interview tomorrow?

Six including tonight's banishee.

Polite request for 'Smouldering Milkmaid' and/or 'Interchangeables' to be in the next thread title please 😁

Agree. The secret relationships added absolutely nothing.

I would’ve thought they would put it in the rules that connections are not allowed, as I think every player should go in on a fair footing as it’s unfair for others if there are already formed alliances.

ABoldSubmission · 22/01/2026 22:19

Sminty2 · 22/01/2026 22:16

I was wondering if it was because Rachel was in the room with her and it would have been a massive spoiler for tomorrow?

@Lilactimes suggested this a page or two ago and I think she's (if you are a she Lilac!) is spot on. I replied that if it had been James, production could much more easily have edited him out to show Roxy's reaction. Because she'd be likely to say Rachel's name out loud in disbelief but she wouldn't do that if talking to Rachel, her facial expression would give it away too if looking at Rachel.

Figgygal · 22/01/2026 22:20

What a cliff hanger
Stephen might eek this after all

Faraz does a Rebecca Loo’s it looked like to me

Depends how far they go surely - if they end the game quick the winners will come in all together won’t they

TitsInAbsentia · 22/01/2026 22:22

FrothyCothy · 22/01/2026 21:41

The secret relationships generate pages and pages of speculation, it’s great PR even if it adds little to the gameplay.

But surely you would get that next series with zero connections?

Lardychops · 22/01/2026 22:24

LighthouseLED · 22/01/2026 21:12

I think killing Roxy was a real mistake. She’s the one person they could have persuaded to vote their way in the final.

Agreed
I think Rachel bottled it with Faz unlike Stephen who agreed to go for Jessie

justtheotheronemrswembley · 22/01/2026 22:25

Popfan · 22/01/2026 21:38

Why didn't we see Roxy open the traitor envelope and her reaction?

As at least one other pp has already pointed out - because it was filmed with her and the person who gets banished with the chest of chance thing, both together.

I suppose the crew wouldn't have known at the time they filmed it that the episode would be shown with the chest opening being an end-of-episode cliffhanger, and the banished person not revealed.

He's been incredibly boring.

He’s wholesome and sweet, and has also clocked both traitors. Much better than Jack or Jade, or even James. All way off.

StMichaelPenkevil · 22/01/2026 22:31

Apologies if this has already been asked and answered on a previous thread but when do they film Uncloaked?

They had a shot of Judy watching it ‘live’ and her reaction to Roxy having been murdered but surely she would have known that when Roxy came out before the end?

I’m probably being really dense but I can’t get the timelines straight in my head 😜😂

NewAgeNewMe · 22/01/2026 22:32

Faraaz or Jade for me for the win.

KnickerlessParsons · 22/01/2026 22:34

Oh I’d love Jade to win.

@MatchaMelt I would be horrendous at this game!

  • I hate being lied to
  • Am always putting my foot in things
  • I rub people up the wrong way when I'm trying my best to be nice
  • I have zero sleuthing skills and notoriously bad judgement!
  • I also bloody hate people thinking I'm lying and that's the thing most likely to get any kind of rise out of me!
  • finally, if more reasons were required, I'm SO unfit!

I'd be out at the first banishment and probably relieved af about it 😂

Same here. Perhaps we should both go for it.😁

Our combined uselessness could sweep the board.

Stowickthevast · 22/01/2026 22:35

What was the lie that Rachel was going on about with Fiona?

I don't remember what specific thing she was referring to unless it was just that Amanda had told her about being a cop. But surely even though Fiona was a traitor, that was still just Rachel's word against Fiona's? it doesn't really matter as Rachel is clearly toast if not tonight then tomorrow, but everyone seemed to know what she was talking about.

BoxingHare · 22/01/2026 22:36

I agree big mistake getting rid of Roxy. Keeping Faraaz in has only let him ramble on about Rachel. She could have styled it out without him there, since it's so close.

MatchaMelt · 22/01/2026 22:38

@Stowickthevast Exactly that, lying that Amanda never told Rachel about her true occupation and I guess other people were just more inclined to believe Rachel because it’s such a crazy thing to lie about

Judy and the other guests would have watched it earlier today (ie before it was broadcast), and Uncloaked filmed shortly after that. I could be wrong but I think it is only the very last Uncloaked that is actually broadcast properly live, the rest are pre-recorded.

Edited

I agree, he’s been playing his cards close and keeping calm.
I’m really disappointed that his pal Jack didn’t join force with him and vote Rachel despite Faraz confiding his suspicions about her to him
I’d hate Jack to win, he has been the most useless. Even Jade is starting to think for herself
