Also they keep saying Leanne has no heat on her, but lots of people were accusing her the other night because of the make up thing! But they do have short memories in this game

Wilf in a sou'wester??

It didn’t sound like he was joking to me.

Nor me. He instantly didn't like it.

They didn’t have to go on the show!

Correct and she wants that for the others.

I think either Rob or Romesh will be murdered so they can break up that alliance. One of them should have gotten the key.

Romesh will probably be the one who is murdered now.

Romesh is just very dry. I'm surprised people are taking him seriously.

Loving Ed’s green suit.

Julie is still enjoying the attention! I’m glad she’s gone as she just annoyed me too, even though I’d never heard of her before. But I’m glad her going means Hannah is briefly saved

Julie is even MORE annoying on Unlocked. Had to turn it off.

I hope Maya wins. She's the only one with swag.
But I think some combo of Sharon Rooney, Joanne, Jerry and Leigh Anne will win.

Gosh Julie, you talk too much..

Uhm well bit of an advantage to be a traitor from the beginning (if you want to be a traitor that is!). I'm bored of her.

Faithfuls to win!

Jerry will have it in for Hannah now. Her and Miranda will definitely try and get Hannah out now.

Maya is going completely under the radar. She reminds me of one of the Traitors in the civi version, I think she had a sister in there but I might be confused.

Ah I'm really annoyed they picked Rob, Romesh and Ross, dont want to see any of those 3 leave. And I'm unreasonably peeved that I have to wait until next Thursday, its too long of a break between episodes.

Maya is a bit like Harry the ultimate traitor.

Yes she is but more of that is due to the fact that no one thinks she's clever enough to have any theories or anything useful to say.

I always back the Traitors. I generally find them more interesting than the Faithfuls.
I hated the seasons where the Faithfuls won. Some by saying and doing nothing.

I'm not liking Miranda much. I thought I would love her. 🤣

I agree.

Yes they've been gifted a more interesting role, wasn't due to them being particularly interesting..

It may be because they foolishly think a beautiful woman who fronts Love Island must necessarily be too stupid or too nice to be a Traitor. As Myhala said " Maya's too pretty to be a Traitor". 😂
