I hope there isnt a schleb version of this, or anything else, am sick of Z listers being paid a fortune for FA. Schlebs are the least to need money. Share the wealth, share the opportunity. All such gameshows should be for the ordinary person in the ordinary street to take part in, real people that deserve an opportunity for a few quid, fame etc, not hand picked actors, BBC selected caricatures of ideas of UK demographic representation. Oh, and contestants should actually live in the UK rather than Belgium as Andrea does..

So should they disqualify someone if it turns out they live on an unordinary street? Just want to clarify.

I always thinks Strictly would be better with random people off the street.

I will reply in case you are being genuine - there would only be ordinary everyday people on the show therefore no need for disqualification. But if you meant someone had lied then disqualify and throw them off show as would any other show if falsified appication etc.

Can kind of see your point about a celebrity version but where somebody lives is 100% irrelevant and Andrea is great
 
I absolutely loved The Mole and I didn’t think anything would top it for me but I am enjoying The Traitors more. I agree both shows could take aspects from each to make it better. For instance having the traitors sabotage the tasks would make it so much more interesting and it gives the faithfuls a bit more to go on rather than who they are getting a feeling about based on no evidence.

Yeah so like there could two prize pots but a limited total amount that can go across either of the two. When the group does well in the challenges, the faithful prize pot is added to. But when they don't complete a challenge, money could come out of the faithful prize fund and be added to the traitor's pot? That way, they'd start suspecting people who were bad in the challenges and the traitors would have to sabotage the group effort without making it look like that's what they were doing?

I think they'd go for wilf or arron if Maddy was murdered. They don't seem to think deep enough about it to work out why people have been murdered so would just go with "it must be them because that's who she was pointing the finger at"


My husband won't watch it because of the music

I cannot stand the music. It’s one of the reasons I won’t go in a coffee shop these days - I hate whispery versions of 80s/90s classics.
Turns my stomach.
 
Started watching the Aussie series and 😱. Strong start. I know who wins as I accidentally stumbled upon a spoiler the other day but it has not marred my enjoyment of the show. It looks like they do things differently as well with the traitors confronting their victim rather than receiving a letter on the diary room chair. Breakfast looks delicious.

Ooooh that's good to know. I've seen a few spoilers (including re the final) so wasn't going to bother but I might do now. 😀

Where can we find the Aussie series please? I think after this week I might be in Traitors withdrawal so an Aussie fix would help! 😂
 
You must be watching the older season of the Aussie version then? I think I am just watching the one that was on in October. In this one they don't confront their victim and it's almost identical to the UK one format-wise.
