Me too. I have never, ever found her funny in anything. Must be my sense of humour.

Should have gone to Specsavers

Well, he shouldn't! And if he does know, I'm surprised a media pro said this because he'll be NDA'd

But that’s a horrible photo of her! I don’t think I’d have recognised her at all! She looks much more beautiful in the castle.

Oh ok! Wasn’t sure about the ending bit.

Jesus there must be some raving beauties here if that’s considered a bad photo 😱

I don't think Maya is beautiful either, pretty but not beautiful.

Bluntly could write a song you’re not beautiful

Wish I were as not beautiful as Maya is.

Maya's stunning and Jerry is gorgeous!

I think Maya is beautiful. I also think she looks trans.

I wonder if there would be a punishment for the Traitors if they failed their task and couldn’t carry out a murder…

🙄

Thanks for that. Still don't

This. Why shouldn't she know it. She is stunning.

I think they were told to go there. The spray bottle was there.

I did laugh at Kenny stuffing it down his trousers for safekeeping, leaving the other two frantically searching for it. Who did he think would move it? It was there from the beginning.

I think he might have been nervous about being seen handling it.

I feel exactly the same. I never found her funny and she used to annoy me, but she's been lovely in this.

I think the punishment would be that they failed to murder and so squandered a chance to thin out the faithfuls.

I agree, i dont think that at all.

On the topic of “who knows the ending”, I think they can discuss between themselves so they’ll know who won but not necessarily how.

I read something where Julie said she’s removed herself from the group WhatsApp as she didn’t want spoilers.

James A had clocked it on the first day walking round and guessed it was for a murder in plain sight. He said so in the diary room when he got the letter.

I think they might fail their task tbh

That or my beloved Ross will take the bait 😩

I hope they fail. There’s never been a failed murder before so it would be interesting!
