The Traitors

Kaz says that people stopped talking to him and there was evidence of it in the clips shown on Uncloaked.

I found what we saw of Kaz being sidelined to be quite unpleasant.
My husband said "if I was him I'd be pleased to get out of there".

It seems the brightest ones are banished of by the traitors because they are a threat. The faithfuls also get rid of them because they can’t work them out! I think Minah is going completely under the radar and she may win.

I think the contestants seem particularly gullible this series. They seem to attach too much importance to certain players whilst ignoring others. I haven't even got to know some of these background players yet. Of course, the series is edited afterwards so really we should be able to pick up the clues as viewers too.
I don't think Linda will last long now- she is making too many slips and I think the bias against older contestants is obvious. I do think some of the challenges should be cerebral and not always physical as this obviously favours the younger players.
I am rarely on the side of the faithful as they often lead each other astray because they have poor focus on the 'quiet' ones. They don't seem to rely on their own instincts but on a herd mentality, this is why the traitors succeed.
Anyway it's easy to judge.
I am still a fan. I don't think its any nastier than previous series but it is an inevitable part of the game-play, and I sense why we enjoy watching.
I feel sorry for Freddie who is also a victim of bias being the youngest. I sense he may be voted off next because of that other player whose name I can't recall.

I agree with you keepingquiet about bias against older players

Yes, this has been true in the past, too. Having said that, Linda is hopeless, and now that Lisa has said that her vows won't allow her to lie she has put her head on the block, I think. Maybe she has less chance of being banished, as the faithfuls are hunting the traitors, but she is a prime target for murder.

Really sorry to see Kaz voted off. I’m having difficulty remembering all the names! 🙄 Hopefully, Linda will go soon.

I m another who has trouble with names some I remember straight away others I struggle to remember at all

I wonder why Lisa even applied for the game because if she couldn’t lie she would have found it tricky being a traitor.

I know - I'm puzzled too. Are priests obliged to tell the truth at all costs? She might be lying when she says that, I suppose. There must be some circumstances under which they can be 'economical with the truth'. They'd be rubbish at poker, otherwise

I also wonder why the girl who is pretending to be Welsh thinks it will give her an advantage.

I thought that too shysal . I was sorry to see Kas banished . I think Minah is playing a good game and I think Linda won’t last long .
I’m a Claudia fan , I love her clothes on Traitors and even looked for a cape on eBay this week .
I remember when her daughter was badly burnt by a candle in a pumpkin on Halloween, I think they were treat or treating and the pumpkin was on a doorstep . Claudia took a long time off work and campaigned for safer materials to be used in fancy dress clothes.

shysal evidence apparently shows that people are more inclined to trust certain accents, one of them being Welsh, also Yorkshire and Scottish I think. Some are more untrustworthy but not mentioning those……..

I think Welsh is though of as friendly but not bright?

I suppose "trustworthy" is maybe aligned to "friendly" - and if you aren't too bright you may not be conniving!

I might be odd thinking this way but I am surprised Minah has not been voted off. Her and her sister are close in age and sisters can be close in a lot of ways. I would have voted. Minah off as a precaution.

Wasn't Maia the sister of Armani?

Yes, the sisters have both gone. Minah is no relation. As far as we know .

I missed that. Sorry. I do enjoy the show.

That card game in the “graveyard “ - creepy!

So Linda’s gone
Watching BBC 2 afterwards Fozia was absolutely lovely and incredibly dry and funny Linda came across much nicer too and I think she looked really good for an older lady and her hair looked lovely

I think the new traitor, Charlotte? Will be good and Minah now needs to watch her back.

Linda was much nicer when not traitoring, I agree. I liked her in Uncloaked. It was the ham acting that I found irritating, but who knows what any of us would be like in the circumstances.

I didn’t think Fozia was lovely at all! I think she’d have happily thrown Linda under a bus if the positions had been reversed.
And as for Linda looking really good for an older lady - FFS she’s only 70!
I’d have been less than flattered and I can give her 6 years.
I thought her style very ageing and a bit naff .

Fozia is great, she has a place in the Media for strength forward views.
Linda, I'm surprised lasted that long, not sure if it's the edited that way, but it was obvious.
Love it!

Unfortunately I have disliked Linda throughout and although more "smiley" on Uncloaked I didn't change my view.
It's a pity Fozia was out so quickly. I think she was an asset to the show.

I feel sorry for Alexander now though. His quite formal (?) language isn't doing him any favours and everyone is suspicious of him now.
The way he tried to explain the principal of the card game rather than the blow by blow has got him in hot water too now.
I think I could easily have said what he said and scuppered myself.
