January 5Jan 5 The casting for this year has been incredible. I really thought the quality would start to nosedive after S3 was a bit weaker in comparison to previous years and we're just quickly following Celebrity Traitors which was a bit of a cultural phenomenon but so far this series has been fantastic! Really pleasantly surprised with it! I think Faraaz is probably the secret traitor due to metagaming reasons (they would need a POC as a Traitor or people would complain) and he's had fairly limited screen time but Reece could be an option too considering he allowed Rachel/Stephen some alone time at the painting and he didn't find that suspicious unless he already knew they were Traitors...

And anyone shortlisted by the Secret Traitor couldn't be the Secret Traitor. Although it did cross my mind when he said 'do you want me to leave you two too it' when Stephen and Rachel were with the painting - as if he knew what they had to do. Faraaz is an interesting one though - he had a bit more screentime in episode 3 and was funny in the picture recreating task too.I do think though its probably someone with limited screentime, who has been a bit in the shadows, rather than the likes of Amanda who has become very involved and loud.

LMAOOOOO. I'm just SO used to seeing "Rachel Stevens" that this just seems wrong and shouldn't be allowed SO excited for the reveal tonight (although I really do wish they used it for a bit longer) but my final guesses are one of either Ellie or Fiona...
January 7Jan 7 I still think the secret traitor will be a shock So I’m sticking with Matthew (not just because he’s gorgeous, worked for the ban conversion therapy campaign and he used to play for an inclusive rugby team!), but because he has gone under the radar completely I have seen some people dislike the concept of the secret traitor. I love it personally as I’ve always said there should be some element to the show that the audience don’t know about - and therefore can’t scream at people for being stupid. Id go as far as to say that some people who don’t like the concept don’t like the loss of control
January 7Jan 7 And when they reveal the secret traitor to Rachel and Stephen but not to us, then what? (really hoping they don’t do this, I can’t take it anymore lmao x)

January 7Jan 7 Does anyone else think the contestants should have their social media private until the show is over? It seems like so many people are trawling through old Instagram and Facebook posts to deduce clues and connections to other contestants and it just seems like so many people are trying to spoil things for themselves - and others when it gets plastered everywhere! I've already saw some posts on my Facebook feed about old photos on Ross's page and I'm really annoyed because it feels like when Traitors is on you literally can't open a single social media app without some sort of clue/hint/reveal being somewhere.Oh and you just KNOW in tonight's EP they'll show the reaction to the Secret Traitor and then cut to breakfast and drag out the actual audience reveal until the end of the ep.

I guess you have to remember of a portion of people who watch the show, it's only people who engage online who find out all this stuff. People just have way too much time on their hands.Anyway, excited for tonight. Still going with Fiona/Ellie as the traitor, although I do like the Faraaz shouts as well. Can't wait for everyone to be disappointed! Personally, I've really enjoyed the twist. It's added a fun element to the game. I think they need to do these things to freshen the show up as the cast know the game so it throws them off too. Although I still do enjoy how paranoid people get at the beginning with their theories.
January 7Jan 7 The Ellie and Ross connection was so obvious before the reveal going by her reaction as soon as Roxy cast her vote I honestly wouldn't be surprised at this point if Maz is Faraaz's dad (or other relation).Stephen sadly seems to be totally crumbling to pieces as a traitor so I can't see him lasting much longer at all.
