Television The Traitors (BBC) | Series 3 now airing. If you watch episodes on the iPlayer that haven't aired on the BBC television, put discussion in spoilers

I liked Kas' little shot at Joe, as he does come across as a knob head. Sad he's gone as he seemed like a really genuine bloke.

Obviously it's hard to tell with the editing, but Leon's comment of Kas having suitable characteristics to be a traitor but yet he doesn't appear to have actually spent much time to get to know him (rather hanging around with his little group) kind of says a lot. I would think it would be good to try and get to know someone to test your theory before going gung go for them.

Hope Kas comes out after and dishes the dirt on all those dickheads.

Usually there are a few people I like each season but I think Minah is the only person I like so far.

Racismo.

Those are all terrible options. Gotta go with someone strong at this stage.

I don't think they needed to recruit. You want a lame duck nearer the end that you can throw under the bus, but for now they're doing fine. And with one of them holding the shield they could have easily passed it off as Minah being targeted if their kill fails.
 
I was so so disappointed with them reintroducing the train people. I thought they were going to do something new with them like have them part of it somehow or they've been watching all along or something.

But nah. Just walked into the castle after a pointless mission. Really poor creativity.

The thing that annoys is when the people got off the train, we're expected to believe that they genuinely believe they are leaving the competition.

Then we had to believe that the contestants in the house were genuinely shocked when they saw them again.

It's all been done before.

There's a lot of suspending belief for a reality show.

Awful bunch of contestants too, it's like Hollyoaks does Traitors. Get some interesting people in there.

How could they reintroduce them if they had been watching all along though?
 
I am sick to death of all the bloody weeping and wailing it's not love island

Felt sorry for Kaz served them right they realised they'd made a huge error yet I'm sure they won't learn from it! Almost got to the point of bullying and you could tell he was sick of it and had given up a bit

Dan is an interesting one, bit of a lone wolf, trouble is as others have said its the dumb sheep who are dragged to the final because you know "100% faithful couldn't possibly be a traitor" and glue themselves to one of the traitors who they think couldn't possibly be one

I'd do what others have said and quietly stay under the radar, act a bit sheepie and thick while quietly trying to work out the traitors and allying with one before hopefully being able to reveal i have a brain in the final. Although I'd rather be a traitor

If I'm Minah I'd want a strong fellow traitor to recruit, as I think Linda needs to go under the bus she's so obvious and could drag her down with her if she's not careful so I'd want to on board someone then work with them to get her under the bus

I'd recruit Fazia. She's got a good alliance going already from the train, so I think she will go under the radar a bit, although maybe I'd want to wait til the next recruitment just to get a sense of what she's like and if she's a bus thrower.

Leanne could be an interesting recruit, or Leon who seems to be so under the radar we barely see him

Tyler and Alexander I think will put you under the bus, I definitely wouldn't choose either

Kas is a legend, was gutted to see him go. Proper sucks that they all ostracised him and didn’t even let him get his theories out there.

And then Fozia comes in with no knowledge and sticks the knife in - what was that all about.
 
If there was so heat on Kas he would have been murdered fast by the traitors anyway because he was a smart guy, someone like him will never win. At this point I’m surprised people like him actually tell them their profession. Leanne did the smart thing by not saying she was in the army.

The way he was treated by wankers like Joe was shocking, though. Glad he got the last laugh at the end.
 
Joe is an utter knob. His little hissy fit at the end of the roundtable...he's so, so punchable. Smug bastard.

They did Kas dirty. Went after him for multiple days without reason. Idiots.
 
Massive Spanner said:
Huh? She defended him and asked him to get his point across. She saw he wasn’t being treated fairly.

Oh, maybe I misinterpreted that whole thing (I was making a cup of tea at the time). Didn't she quite aggressively tell him that he should be defending himself and that he looks fed up, and by saying so implying that he was suspicious?

Edit: ok yeah I rewatched it quickly, I misheard what was going on

I thought she defended him too!

I think they made a mistake in recruiting. The suspicion seems to have fallen off of Linda - and Minah is flying way under the radar.

They should have murdered and tried to break up some of the cliques.

The two rejoiners will have suspicion over them, and I don’t know why they considered Freddie. Still think he might be banished next round table - and I feel like the only thing he is looking forward to is being able to tell everyone he is faithful when he goes!

The only thing that could change my thinking is if the faithful realise they have been way off the mark with how they are suspecting people, and decide to look for someone ‘not so obvious’….which might mean Minah’s name comes up.
 
I know it's still fairly early days, but probably the series I've enjoyed the least so far. Extremely bland cast list so I'm not rooting for anyone in particular, and not enough heat on the Traitors to make the round table discussions more gripping.

Not an issue exclusive to this season, but there doesn't feel enough of an incentive to find a traitor, particularly at this stage of the game. Faithful's must know too the game will never end prematurely by catching all the traitors as the BBC have 12 eps to fill. As a faithful, you might as well remain in survival mode and just vote off whoever suspicion falls upon and then have a stab in the final.
 
Those 3 potential recruit choices are probably the worst 3 they could have come up with. Mindless.

This season is shaping up to be the opposite of season 2. Dumb traitors and cretinous faithful.

Honestly, I wish they put a serial killer role in this show. It would be such a great twist.

Think that's a few levels too advanced for the producers.

Imagine the drama when two people are murdered. The fallout from the Traitors would be hilarious.
 
Why are the traitors even recruiting? There's no heat on them at all why not just murder? Unless the producers basically force them it seems like a really idiotic move at this stage

Christ, crack a smile mate.
 
Linda is so useless. I dunno if it’s editing but it’s like, Minah comes up with a theory and Linda is like oh yeaaaah, and then Minah thinks through a counter argument and Linda is like oh yeaaah. Madness.

I like Minah. Thought she was doing great so far. But the crying was bizarre. And then these recruit choices … I mean, what? Makes no sense whatsoever. Madness too.

Kas will be received like a hero to people who actually know him in real life. Fair play to him, seems like he was excluded and that must have been tough, but he kept his head high and he was genuine I felt. And absolutely loved the little dig at Joe.

Speaking of Joe, he is such a prick. I said last week to the other half that watch, when they do get Kas, that guy won’t eat his words. And turns out I was right.

This recruit choice has absolutely killed the vibes though. It’s barbarically awful.

That would be such a great role in this!

But obvious why they don’t. More death means shorter series. Same reason they have this recruit system.

You could get away with it by having slightly more people at the start and then having the producers script it like they've done for every season anyway.
