Welcome to Thread 12 of Traitors 2026 - possibly the final thread for this series
😵‍💫 < me after managing all these threads!

The title’s not very snappy but I think I’ve covered all requests!

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!

Traitors
Hugo
Rachel
Stephen
Fiona (Secret Traitor)

Murdered

I agree. I think he’s a genuinely decent person.

I’d add Rachel to that. There would be no reason for her to vote to banish again if it wasn’t for the same reason. I think they’re both lovely people.

I am so happy Stephen voted for Jack / both Rachel and Stephen deserve to win … Stephen could have voted Rachel and won all the money but this is a lovely outcome ❤️

I wonder if Rachel had had Stephen's casting vote if she'd have done the same thing. I don't think she would.........

What an anticlimax.

It would have been had they not edited to make us think Stephen was wobbling

EchoedSilence · 23/01/2026 21:47

I was worried for Rachel for a while but she fucking did it!

Is Stephen forgetting we all now know his bf is an actor and he has famous friends? ‘Just a boy from Lewis’ 😂

😂😂 the traitors is love island for middle class/posh people tbh

TheSpottedZebra · 23/01/2026 21:47

And full length, that dress is a KNOCKOUT on our Rach.

I don't know that! Who is his BF? How have I missed this?

NCTDN · 23/01/2026 21:47

I love how they stuck to their promise.

C8H10N4O2 · 23/01/2026 21:47

ScribblingPixie · 23/01/2026 21:46

Fair play, Rachel. She absolutely battled her way through that final. I didn't think she had a chance.

I struggle to think of anyone in a final who has worked quite so hard for it

murasaki · 23/01/2026 21:47

I'm a hard faced bitch and I got a bit emotional at that. Well done both of them.

LighthouseLED · 23/01/2026 21:47

FrothyCothy · 23/01/2026 21:46

Bloody delighted with that ending! Was expecting a split or steal vote but really pleased it didn’t come to that. And glad Jack didn’t get anything 😬

I think they only do split or steal if there are three Traitors left, rather than do the last banishment at the fire pit.

ninja · 23/01/2026 21:47

They didn’t show them telling the others! I guess enough people watch uncloaked now

CharlotteRumpling · 23/01/2026 21:47

First female Traitor.
Rachel played with integrity and has come out of this looking great. As has Stephen. But it's easier for a man to look great because no one's calling him a hard faced cow!

TraitorsFan · 23/01/2026 21:47

The Traitors can go out into their real lives without people they know thinking they were devious at the end.

They were faithful to being traitors and didn’t cross each other.

mumofoneAloneandwell · 23/01/2026 21:48

They got each other through the show, literally a 50/50 win

EchoedSilence · 23/01/2026 21:48

TheSpottedZebra · 23/01/2026 21:47

And full length, that dress is a KNOCKOUT on our Rach.

She looks amazing.

TheMadGardener · 23/01/2026 21:48

Amazing - at the start of the final I thought there was no way Rachel was getting to the end. Very well done.

Bouledeneige · 23/01/2026 21:48

I’m sad Faraaz came so close. But failed to sort the order of the vote with Jack and couldn’t see that a traitor could just be great at the verbals.

Lampzade · 23/01/2026 21:48

Piccolomaforte · 23/01/2026 21:46

Can’t help but feel the prize pot should be bigger!

Agree
The pot is not that big considering how popular the show is

C8H10N4O2 · 23/01/2026 21:48

MrsMitford3 · 23/01/2026 21:47

I don't know that! Who is his BF? How have I missed this?

If you have, so have I but I rely on posters here who are more diligent on SM - I’ve no idea who his BF is either (and now want to know…)

LighthouseLED · 23/01/2026 21:48

RainbowSnake · 23/01/2026 21:46

I’d add Rachel to that. There would be no reason for her to vote to banish again if it wasn’t for the same reason. I think they’re both lovely people.

Yes, I agree. I think she’d have kept to her word as well.

RubieChewsDay · 23/01/2026 21:48

Very satisfying end, I think they both worked hard for that.

it appears that the penny did not actually drop for Jack after all 😂

Lifejigsaw · 23/01/2026 21:48

Oneforallandallforone · 23/01/2026 21:47

You write your vote before the announcing starts though, so yes!

ShiftySquirrel · 23/01/2026 21:48

Loved that ending. Well deserved by Rachel and Stephen.

pouletvous · 23/01/2026 21:48

Has anyone seen that Aussie version where three traitors make it to thr end?

its a brutal version
