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!

For the final time, the floor is yours…

I always hate the notion that women should always support other women just because they are women.

I love Rachel’s dress on uncloaked.

If Rachel had been HR (or Communications) in NHS Fife I don’t think Sandie Peggie would have had the treatment she did.

I might not like her decisions at work but I could understand and respect them.

Me too. Perfect ending - traitors so deserved to win.

I can't believe all the chopping and changing of names, makes me wonder if they were set up to win. So much back tracking. Surely after James was revealed a faithful, Rachel should have been voted next.

Dress is great, the bow looks like she's about to take off.

I also found Rachel a bit irritating but I'm happy they both won. I'd have picked Stephen over her if one had to win

After somebody posted that four months FBI course, somebody called it that Rachel didn't even have that and was just bluffing.

Well done to that poster.

Stephen's style is very The Great Gatsby.

They had way more strategy than was ever shown

Stephen now saying he panicked and threw out Rachel's name too many times. Hmmm..

Yeah I'm not getting much love for Harriet from the others.

In this tricky world Traitors is fantastic distraction.

Freddie Mercury I thought.

Yes, it’s gorgeous.

Thanks @CaveMumfor such fun threads.

She was just playing the game though. The only person akin to a colleague for her was Stephen and she proved her trustworthiness there.

he said it with a smile, I really don’t think it was malicious.

I would. Across the UK versions she, Stephen, and Minah have all showed a lot of teamwork, loyalty, warmth, intelligence, and integrity as traitors. They’re all also playing games so I would happily have a lot of the more treacherous traitors as work colleagues as well.

But his jumpsuits are pure Anneka Rice

The edit made it look like that, but we only see 1 hour out of 24. It was to create suspense ahead of the ending. It would have been boring if Rachel and Stephen said they loved each other all the time and never spoke a bad word against the other.

Same, I like strong independent women who can hold their own and take no prisoners.

Everyone?

And her job is comms and she has spent the game showing how effective she can be at comms.

yeah agreed, she played the game well, but also stuck to her word.
