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…

Quick work! And expensive.

I’m poised with the new thread, it will go up shortly.

Will they have to abseil down the dam?

Did someone say when this was on an earlier thread that the wool/knitting style cannot be washed? (Not a knitter, the terminology was lost on me)

Its a lot to pay for a cardi which you can’t wash when inevitably you squirt ketchup on it

Imagine if its just Stephen Rachel and Jack at the end...

Agree. Faraz is letting us down.

I think Stephen will win, with Jade and Rachel being banished.

Rachel will win

Why doesn't Stephen admit to Rachel that he is mentioning her? I really want there to be a plausible answer, but it's just coming across as sly to me. Rachel is being honest and telling him she's mentioning his name, not once has he said yes I've been saying your name. He is actively just throwing her name out there to everyone. I don't like that behaviour, and I really wanted the 2 traitors to win, they've worked for it, doing all the late nights etc, it's been a free holiday for the faithful

Being a good traitor is such a poisoned chalice - no-one will ever believe a word Rachel or Stephen says again.

Agreed. No one likeable. At a push I choose rachel because she’s the only older person to survive, and that’s only cos she’s a traitor. Slim pickings tho.

Sounds like it

This is really not an interesting mission at all, though.

Yes. A whole thread in S and B.
The Beeb must have a tie up with HM because Charlotte Church wore a green version.

Dry clean!

You have to ge careful with pure wool - it can shrink. A lot if woolen stuff is ‘hand wash only’, and dry flat.

Rachel & Jade will 100% be banished.

But Will Faraz feel happy ending the game with Stephen in it?

Faraz may decide to banish again but Jack & Stephen vote him out.

Jack trusts Stephen.

I can't see Stephen not winning right now!

I can't believe Stephen replied to Jade suspecting Faraaz with 'and Rachel'. Unbelievably sly.

I feel like Stephen really needs to agree with others to get rid of Rachel first otherwise he can't win.

Is it Traitors or SAS Who Dares Wins??

I wonder how many HM have sold - suspect there will be lots of people regretting purchases soon. The sellers who produce copies in far easier care yarns will do well.

I wish I could fast forward this one. Surely they realise by now how unpopular these final challenges are? I’ve never seen anyone say anything positive about them.

I’m pretty sure I was being replied to in the post 😂 I just cannot remember what the issue was (there was a technical term I didn’t understand and googling left me none the wise).

It's a measure of how dull this challenge is that we are discussing cardies!

Rachel has been the best traitor we've had on any UK series.

Claudia's fringe is all over the place in this.
