What did you expect him to do after Wilf stabbed 3 traitors in the back?
And why couldn't the faithfuls count? It started with 3 traitors you muppets!
Glad Aaron got cash though. What a lovely guy.

It was more just the big old sulk and not even an attempt to try and get wilf banished instead of him. I do wonder if the producers ask those banished to try and not give away the other traitors. Imagine if when the first one was found out, she just stood there and said "it's also Amanda and Wilf". That's game ruined pretty early on.
What good TV that was.
I’m not a fan of reality telly but, that was the exception.
My own opinion was Wilf lost it when he picked Kieron to become a very unenthusiastic traitor. Obvious Kieran didn’t want it, and was forced to become a traitor. Kieran lost it when he didn’t go for Wilf on his first round table after Wilf had chosen him. Kieran and Mandy, together could have finished Wilf.
Still, I’m glad aarron got the deposit for his Mums house, and, although I wasn’t keen on the other 2, rather them than Wilf.

He knew that faithfuls loved Wilf and would never banish him over himself. He had absolutely no chance of swaying them against Wilf. What he should have done, was tell Wilf in advance that if he was voted out, he'd let everyone know that Wilf was a traitor too, so that Wilf's only option was to kill Aaron and then Meryl. But even then Wilf and Hannah could have voted out Kieron.
Yes of course that's part of the rules. Kieron did his best to out Wilf without clearly breaking the rules.

Kieron may as well revealed a t shirt saying "It's Wilf"
Wilf shouldn't have stabbed all 3 traitors in the backKieron may as well revealed a t shirt saying "It's Wilf"

It's two separate issues.
Wilf stabbed them in the back, yes.
A separate issue is whether Kieron literally telling everyone who the other traitor is is spoiling the game, which I personally believe it is, whether you feel Wilf deserved it or not.

Bloody brilliant TV
Yes he may have spoiled the game, but it's hard to blame him.

I don't think his actions spoilt it. It was great watching the penny slowly drop for Hannah and to a lesser extent Aaron, whilst poor Meryl sat there with a face like a stunned mullet not having a clue what was going on.

From thinking it would be a load of rubbish, I found it compulsive viewing! Hope there'll be another series next year.

Celebrity Traitors would seem the obvious next step!

Wilf treated the other traitors so badly and constantly voted out people who were not in his small cliché. Kieran simply informed the group that he wasn't the only traitor remaining and Wilf signed his own death certificate when he had two big tantrums and threw an ultimatum about not remaining friends with those who vote him out. Unfortunately his true colours shone through.

I thought it was superb TV, I was very happy for the eventual winners, especially Aaron who had to put up with a lot of crap during the show. I was however rooting for Wilf. To play the Traitor to the bitter end required a lot of nerve and ingenuity, selecting Keiran as a fellow traitor was a mistake though and he fell at the last hurdle.
That is a tough game to play, will be interesting to see how subsequent series go now that future contestants will have seen how this one went.

Yep, watching. I do enjoy all of the mental gymnastics they put themselves through trying to figure out who's a traitor.
If you haven't already, strongly suggest you watch the Australian version (it was available on BBC iPlayer, think it still is).

We're fans though it's annoying that we can't binge-watch the whole thing.
