Title: The Traitors
Post by: pxr5 on January 23, 2026, 10:28:21 PM
Until the celebrity special I hadn't watched The Traitors before. I don't watch shows like this normally but I admit I did enjoy the celeb version so watched this, the latest, series that ended tonight. It was brilliant, and I was glued to every episode. The psychology of it all is fascinating to watch and see how easily people can be swayed one way or another. I won't spoil it but it ended exactly the way I wanted it to. 

The problem with shows like this is that people get wise to how to play the game and I can see that happening here. So hopefully the producers will keep things chaotic enough to throw people off their game. I'll watch the next series for sure though.

I started watching with the third series. I couldn't get over how brilliant and devious Minah was. It is a very clever game. But these last two (the celebrity one and this last one) have been equally brilliant. That Alan Carr moment at the end of the celeb one - one of telly's greatest ever moments.

I have been watching since series 2 and it has all been great fun. It confirms most people dont have a clue and I am sure I would be just as bad if I played the game.

My wife has started saving the Irish version of The Traitors. Not sure if I'll watch it all though, but I'll give the first episode a shot.

We started watching today and yes, it's not too bad. Only 2 episodes in so far, but we'll likely carry on with it.

Up to Episode 6 of the Irish version and the arguments are flying everywhere. Unfortunately the BBC are not showing the last 6 episodes until later this month. I'll manage with the rest myself.

We've finished The Traitors Ireland now. Overall, pretty good. It really picked up about half way through but ended a bit flat I feel.
