Has anyone else been watching The Traitors on BBC? It's been a long time since I've been gripped by a TV show like this has gripped me!

It's essentially Among Us / Secret Hitler in real life - apart from there seems to be even less evidence/clues to go on, so no real basis for any of the disputes other than reading of body language and interpretation of spoken word.

Love it, and highly recommend you getting up to date via Iplayer.
 
The emotion swings are hilarious, I can only assume contestants were chosen due to their propensity to burst in to tears when negative energy comes their way.

I think Alyssa deserved to go, she was too blasé about everything and lacked any real passion which highlighted her - the fact both other traitors voted for her have also given them a bit of cover for the upcoming days.

I believe Alex will join them tonight as a third traitor.

I don't understand why the traitors weren't trying to divert away from the narrative that it was a gifted drink which sealed the murder, Diane even set Miles up at breakfast, by saying "somebody kissed me last night, and I thought that was strange" - why did they not attack this angle at all!

I feel it was Miles who was given the poisoned chalice from the onset of that murder task, very difficult to play.
 
Because they were told they'd been poisoned. Poison is usually given by food or drink, more commonly dropped into a drink.

I'm aware of this, but wouldn't you want to be planting as many seeds of doubt and throwing at as many theories as possible to confuse thoughts? You'd need to get a non traitor on board with the idea, to not completely alienate yourself as the only conspiracy theorist.

Last series, in a similar secret mission, fate was sealed by a poisoned kiss, so they could have played on and hammed it up more.
 
If we consider alliances, or swayed votes, I think the only person who will easily be manipulated is Mollie by Harry.

As mentioned by kalowas, a traitor has to go which leaves either Andrew or Harry needing to be voted off before they call time, and agree that everyone left is faithful.

I don't think they can afford to get a faithful out first, as then even more heat and suspicion turns toward Harry/Andrew.

In an ideal world for Harry, and if he plants the right seeds, Mollie will come out early guns blazing for Andrew and collectively they group will banish him early..

I still think Evie will go, as they won't be able to shake the idea she's a traitor based on the shield/failed murder theory that everyone has fallen hook line and sinker for.

Final 3 will be Jaz, Mollie and Hary - with Harry taking the lot IMO.
 
I wish Jaz had more conviction, he's been on the money a fair few times but just never fought it enough - I acknowledge that pushing an agenda too hard can be a bad play too, as sticks your head above the parapet
 
Never liked the bloke on the first series, came across an aggressive tool and classic bully who claimed victim status - news of him being convicted of assault does not surprise me.
