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

My favourite ending of any series so far. And good to have a female Traitor win.

Jeez - nothing like ageism Faraaz. She could be your mum, not your gran. Really rude of him.

And she’d be a young mum. He’s 22 and she’s 42.

I don’t understand the hate for Rachel

she played exceptionally well and everyone involved seemed to have the utmost respect for her

I still don't warm to her, don't really like her, but I do like that she and Stephen really did keep their pact to each other. Although both of them said they might not and both of them did plant seeds against each other at various points.

CharlotteRumpling · 23/01/2026 22:13

pouletvous · 23/01/2026 22:12

Why did Faraz call her Grandma?

shes barely old enough to be your mother

twat

I thought it was some kind of slang?

PotteryChuck · 23/01/2026 22:13

Unfortunately Jack isn't more interesting

Lampzade · 23/01/2026 22:13

EchoedSilence · 23/01/2026 22:11

What have her looks got to do with anything?

I don’t understand why you would take umbrage about a harmless comment about Jade being brainy and beautiful
She has brains and beauty .

Starandflowers · 23/01/2026 22:13

Gutted that the last day people found out via a scroll and not hearing directly from Stephen and Rachel. Feels like an anticlimax

TraitorsFan · 23/01/2026 22:13

Does anyone know what Jade’s subject is? I think different PhDs take different types of intelligence.

dapsnotplimsolls · 23/01/2026 22:14

I think another thread might be needed for all the foolish people who made plans tonight!

hoxtonbabe · 23/01/2026 22:14

CharlotteRumpling · 23/01/2026 22:13

No. I am going to start watching Irish Traitors from tomorrow!

Where can I watch that. I can’t seem to find any recent international ones anymore.

IWantToHibernate · 23/01/2026 22:14

JaneJeffer · 23/01/2026 22:11

Anyone else fed up of the programme in general now?

I’ve loved it from the very start but honestly… I think it peaked with the celebrity version.

This series has not been as fun as the earlier series, and now two traitors have won together it feels like we’ve seen most scenarios now. I may be wrong, but it’s just not the same anymore.

Silverbirchleaf · 23/01/2026 22:14

hoxtonbabe · 23/01/2026 22:11

Faraz took it well and understood he cocked up by changing his mind, Jack was bitter despite what he was saying 😂

Yes, he was bitter.

It’s something to do with women’s health

Women's health, I believe.

Bouledeneige · 23/01/2026 22:14

I actually don’t think Faraaz is thick as mince. I’m mean it’s a crowded field of dumbos - Roxy, Jade, Jack, James. Even by accident they were barely ever right. They lasted because they were so little threat to the traitors. Faraaz had worked it out at the end but didn’t get the tactics right.

Jesus he’s just having the craic with her

ShowDownTime · 23/01/2026 22:14

Thank you for these threads - it’s been so much fun reading everyone’s insights and predications. I found the ending quite heart warming and it felt justified. None of the faithful deserved to win as they were all so thick and completely wrong every time. So easily influenced, no backbone or confidence in their opinions. So the traitors deserved it this time. The production team must be pleased with their choices.

It's something to do with women's health and pregnancy. At Warwick, I think, which is impressive.

Neverthoughtiwould · 23/01/2026 22:15

Did we ever find out what was in the second envelopes?

It is supposed to be on iplayer tom.

The secret relationships - Ross / Ellie and Roxy / Judy

pouletvous · 23/01/2026 22:15

This has been one of the best. Better than slebs

But perhaps the series should end on a high

please dont drag on and on like the apprentice

EdithBond · 23/01/2026 22:15

C8H10N4O2 · 23/01/2026 22:13

Wasn’t that from a joke he and Rachel made in the kitchen?

Oh, was it? I missed that. Was disappointed in him then. But maybe an inside joke.
