[TV] The Traitors - BBC

[JackB247]

I'm not sure anyone suspects Harry so despite us viewers thinking he's overplaying his hand, I think he'll be ok and will get much further along.

Jazz does.

 

[Audax]

Think Jaz will be either banished or murdered before he thinks he can push for Harry to be banished. Far more likely he goes after Andrew next IMO.

 

[Napper]

Post recruitment Andrew looks like a dog being asked to learn how to play chess.

nice guy him , you can tell he doesnt live by the code of back stabbing and selling soul.

He will need to learn quickly

Hope he wins

I think this is the point of the game where it becomes quite hard for the traitors. They need to keep the more trusting/gullible players in the game to be able to influence them in the final round, but they also need to keep the more noticeable players (the ones most likely to work them out) in to be the prey at the roundtable. I'm not sure where they go from here, I'd probably be taking out the middle ground players like Charlotte and Jasmine who don't fall into either category.

Yeah he does seem like a decent bloke. Possibly not the right set of attributes to do well as a Traitor.

Great telly for me..one of very few programmes that our family get together and shouts at the TV collectively! Ross is quite remarkable..vocal, utterly convinced in what he states and 100% wrong. Would make a fantastic Tory MP.

 

[Triggaaar]

Zach is annoying everyone and has been from the start, but as @Triggaaar suggests, he is surely amongst the safest players from banishment remaining.

Should be, but I'm not sure the thickies can work that out.

An example of their ineptitude is that they seem happy to think that those with erratic suggestions (eg Jas) are suspect, but the truth is that the faithful are always in the dark and trying to work things out. Only the sith deal in absolutes. It's easy for traitors to pick a target and stick to it, because they're not trying to work out who the traitors are.

 

[Triggaaar]

BMX Matt is a model at a sports agency for sure.

The magician also has talent rep, as did the least funny comedian of all time.

I understand for it to have to click as a series with viewers they want to control the game a bit and not risk the franchise. BBC is a big customer. But I think they could have just recruited more civvies where as it feels like they just sent briefs out to a number of model, acting and PR agencies

Fair enough

. I also read somewhere that the boyfriend and girlfriend reveal was scene for scene of the Dutch season (original).

Nah, can't be. That makes no sense.

Like I say, S2 is more regular. I was pathetic enough to trawl through most ppls instagrams and only a few have rep this time which suggests a more organic approach / less casting, more auditioning public.

Good work

 

[Triggaaar]

In ten years time, when NSC does a "most gormless all time 'The Traitors' contestant" world cup, these two will be in a quarter final and we'll all be saying "this should be the final".

Maddy has to be in the mix

 

[Triggaaar]

Harry had played it absolutely perfect until last night at the round table. Fair play to Paul - he could have made Harry's situation much tougher with how he responded.

Harry just went into far too much detail in his takedown of Paul. He really didn't need to go for the full tackle on that one. He should have just set back and let the conversation play out a little more first, throw the dungeon reminder in there, and then just let it play out. I think despite the heat Jaz took, Paul was always going to be gone last night. Will be interesting to see if any of the remaining Faithful's cotton on to Harry's over-played takedown or if he gets a free pass in the same way Paul was given multiple free passes earlier on.

I agree Harry went too hard too early, but I'm really not convinced Paul would have gone if Harry hadn't. People were on the fence, and everyone toasted Harry for getting it done.

I know it's hindsight and all, but so many of the Faithful who voted Paul mentioned they were doing so because he was the one they were most convinced of before the round table even happened. I said to my Mrs before the vote that Paul might get away with it because this group have been like sheep in the voting, blindly going after whoever got targeted most heavily during the discussion and forgetting about their intentions before they sat down. Was about blinking time they didn't - earlier in the season it would have been Jaz who went, but maybe they're starting to learn.

Ross is a goddamn moron.

 

[robinsonsgrin]

next week will be interesting. H has signed his own death warrant.....

No chance.

He'll get the other two to back up his story that he was the target of an attempted murder. Andrew and Harry currently have a symbiotic relationship where it isn't good for either of them to betray the other.

Besides, lots of heat on Jasmine, with Jaz, Zach and indeed Ross all not far behind.

Recruiting Mollie was surely the better option. Not someone under suspicion plus spotted Harry getting the shield. The question is whether she'll ever get the courage to call him out at a roundtable.

 

[Wozza]

Charlotte’s out. Can’t believe it…

 

[Gabbiano]

The smart move would have been to kill Jaz. They don't need Ross as a sacrificial lamb, he's going to get himself out anyway.

Jaz is the only one switched on enough to catch them and he's gaining more credibility each day.

But it provides a reason why Harry wasn't murdered as he's a very obvious target now. Mollie will believe that and back him as she saw him take the shield

 

[Gwylan]

Shame that Charlotte's out but she looked vaguely like an ex girlfriend of mine and it was a bit weird seeing her.

I think they've made a mistake recruiting another traitor - it means that the traitors will have to turn on each other at some point - as the faithful now know there's more than one traitor left. The pair of them could have kept going eliminating all the faithful and sharing the pot.
