The Traitors

Anyone watching this series - presented by Claudia Winkleman.

Bit like a car crash - not keen on things to do with mind games ! - don't want to watch it but am strangely drawn to it.

But what's the format - how does it end - are the contestants whittled down until there is only one left?

 

I’m watching it for something to talk about with colleagues, it’s like an inferior version of The Mole. I haven’t a clue how it’s supposed to end, it’s been bothering me for days and no one I’ve spoken to knows either.

 

Started watching it, but wasn't that bothered, the wife is hooked though. I guess it ends when either the faithful or traitors are wiped out.

 

they talk about 'a winner' getting so many thousands - just wondered how they got it down to just one person.
can't say I like the programme but am hooked on it!

 

I’m suprised the lefties have not had their say on it . Auntie giving away £120,000 of our licence fee to some no marks !
Also, does anyone else wonder what Claudia Winklebottom hides behind that fringe ? I tecoon she’s got a **** Blackpool tattoo or something sinister

 

I’m proper addicted to it but not sure how exactly it will work at the end. Suppose we’ll find out soon.

 

Have you watched The Mole on Netflix? I highly recommend! It’s similar to Traitors but there’s only one mole who is trying to secretly sabotage the missions. They do two missions each show and each night the contestants have to take a quiz on who they think the Mole is and the one with the least answers correct gets kicked out. The Mole isn’t revealed until the final episode so you have to work out who it is too. It gets addictive wondering if each person is trying to sabotage the missions as they are the Mole, if they just genuinely are bad at the missions or if they’re pretending to be bad to throw others off the scent. The Mole doesn’t win the money at the end as they are paid for being on the show, a contestant wins it all for getting the most answers correct on the last quiz (there’s 3 left on the last night, the Mole, the winner and a loser).

 

I'm loving it, even started watching the Australian version yesterday

 

Use to love watching The Mole!

 

The new one isn’t as good, there’s not as much interaction between the players, it’s very missions and quiz focused but I was just over the moon that it’s back! I don’t have Netflix but signed up for the ad based one for a month to watch it and then cancelled it afterwards.

 

I think it gets down to a group of traitors or faithful, with that group being one or more people.

 

Haha when did it start? I've got Netflix so will take a look at it! Not sure my Mrs will be interested

 

Must be just over a month ago, all episodes are available to watch.

 

Brill, when the Mrs goes up to bed later then I'll have it straight on

 

There’s a game called “Among Us” online. My boy used to play it for a while. They’ve stolen that 100% whole but changed the names of the bad guys from ‘imposters’ to ‘traitors’.

 

I may be wrong but what I thought I heard at the start is that it is whittled down to 3 and if one if them is a traitor they get the lot, otherwise it is shared between the final 3.

Not sure what happens if they get all the traitors before the end game though. That would make it a damp squid. Do they pick a new traitor?

I may of course be talking bullocks. I am strangely addicted though.

 

This game was massive at its peak 18months/2 years ago. Same levels as fortnight. Never played it but I think nearly everyone else did!

 

No I’ve never heard of that will definitely give it a go once The Traitors is over. I don’t usually watch a lot of TV (except for sport) but this has just totally grabbed my attention.

 

Piece in the Scotsman states "At the end of the game, if only The Faithful remain they will share the money in the prize money. If one of The Traitors remains, that person will claim all the cash." https://www.scotsman.com/arts-and-c...ated bit is that,bag the money for themselves.

 

I’m enjoying it so far!
