Harry played an amazing game and definitely deserved to win . The only faithful I would have been ok to see win would have been Jaz !

Well done to Harry. He played an absolute blinder of a game which must have been such a challenge at times. He seems like such a decent guy too. This had to be one of my favourite shows, Claudia is just outstanding at hosting it

That dramatic ending was CINEMA laugh.gif

Harry played it brilliantly so kudos to him!

I've already got post Traitor blues sad.gif What an amazing show.

A phenomenal finale, one of the most riveting hours (and a bit) of reality TV I've ever seen. Harry played a blinder, he truly deserved that win. In the long run it may have been obvious but I did momentarily think Jaz voting to banish again MAY have been the end of Harry, especially with Mollie dithering so much! I felt a bit bad for Mollie but it was her own doing, the clues were right in front of her.

Another brilliant series, I think the first series had a certain magic that can never quite be recreated, but I didn't expect series 2 to match that and it's still been hugely enjoyable regardless. What a show!

Crazy ratings for a relatively new reality tv show - final ep with over 8m as well!

Both UK series have been top class. I agree with Joseph how the first series cannot be recreated. As the series go on, the contestants will become more and more clued up with the game so it will be interesting to see how the gameplay evolves.

Great how the ratings improved as the series went on. I think series 3 will be ENORMOUS!!

Those ratings are massive - wow!
It will be interesting to see if they can navigate this show as 2x a year without over-saturating the market. Having 11 Months between seasons probably won’t last (likely true for the US Version as calls for Season 3 are going out).

Those are huge ratings! What a success. I don't think two series a year will work - the only way I could see it working is a celebrity version, but even then, not sure it would be the same if it's done in a comedy vein.

I think there's an argument to say could you make the format longer, e.g. 15 episodes. I wonder if the BBC might launch the show on NYD 2025 and plug the finale on a Sunday like it used to do with The Apprentice and make it proper event TV. Another danger is, I wonder how many other channels or services want a piece of it ala Bake Off? Difference here is I'd love to see the demographics breakdown as I suspect it does great with the 18-35 demographic.

I'm perfectly happy with one series a year, I don't think more than one ever really works (even if it's one civilian and one celeb). You can have too much of a good thing and it'll burn the format out faster.

I finally finished this the other day, I can't say Harry didn't deserve it as he played an absolute blinder! I think he's actually a likeable guy, although Andrew was perhaps my favourite. He's really lovely and genuine. We and he knew he never stood a chance, bless him.

My heart kind of broke for Mollie when she voted for Jaz, but at the same time I was like HOW DUMB ARE YOU FFS!

Time to start the first series...

Celeb version incoming in 2025

I'm guessing like Race Across the World will mean 2 series in a year
