Yep, as @dorestknob says, that would have been perfect evidence to raise. Surely when Stephen made his play at the round table about who was last seen and was last at the family tree, a penny would have dropped with Reece. All he had to say was the two of them were looking at the picture and effectively told me to go away. Nailed on surely…

said the man with no [more of a ] clue [than anyone else].🙄

I made the mistake of watching another episode. It's a no from me.

The shittery of watching people making inane attempts at suppositions on who is a traitor based on the square route of **** all. These are not (all) stupid people. Why's no one got the stones to go to that round table and say "This is all bollocks, why are you all making up such crap theories - I'm going to keep schtum and watch you all until I've got something worthwhile to add"

Some absolute leaps going on with this lot.

I love the confidence in their convictions, that then quickly gets shat on from a great height.

Shortly before their overnight murder?

Spoiler
whether it was an intended plan or not, fiona may have played a blinder there tho.  if rachel does start feeling the heat now and goes, as a traitor obviously, then theres no way anyone would think fiona was a traitor after outing her so publicly, so she could win it.

Yep, could be a winning move or backfire.  If Fiona nibbles away at the rest now individually, Rachel may be toast.

Indeed, when people were cheering her being the Secret Traitor it became clear to me very quickly she was enjoying the role a little bit too much forgetting it's only pretend 😁

Amanda's detective skills were second to none though 🤔and why the hell Reece never used that ammunition re the family tree is beyond me.

I think he’s checked out, and for whatever reason has just lost interest, maybe he really wanted to be a traitor?

Clearly she liked being one step ahead of everyone else, and didn’t like that Rachael knew something she didn’t, esp someone she quite liked.

I can't believe that a mature woman threw her toys so comprehensively out of the pram over that. I reckon she might have dropped a bollock there after playing the mildly befuddled invisible faithful. 

That Amanda surprised me too. Her reasoning at the last round table was totally baffling, and I reckon she was watching that back last night absolutely cringing with all her supposed detective expertise getting it COMPLETELY wrong over Jade and Rachel. 

Finally I' surprised how quickly this has sucked me in, it's the first series I've watched!

@tthew perhaps Amanda was trained by Inspector Closeau ? 😁

Great advert for the Met: decide immediately who you 'don't like the look of', with no evidence, then bully them relentlessly till they're sent down 🙂

Interesting how about the only person to be taking in the evidence, connecting the dots and coming to correct conclusions - and then sharing them clearly -  isn't the detective, the PhD student, the barristers or civil servants - it's the hairdresser.  

I really hope Jessie wins.

I've had a niggling suspicion that maybe there's been some careful editing when in actual fact Rachel and Fiona concocted this spat between them to lob a hand grenade into the group just to completely flummox everybody?

that would be suicide tho, traitors are always most effective left in the background, you really dont want to be drawn into anything like that in front of everyone.  my guess is that rachel will start getting a few votes now and fiona will be golden, a traitor would NEVER behave like that! 😀 

i realise im sort of contradicting myself there but..... you know....

I wonder if Fiona has forgotten the ‘thou shalt not snitch on other traitors’ oath she took at the start, and if there will be any ramifications from that.

As I understand it, voting for them at round table is fine whereas a full blown meltdown, less so.

Whatever Fiona's game is she's gone for it way too early.

There are still a lot of players left and she's broken the happy, chatty, Welsh lady character going under the radar. Eyes will be on her as well as Rachel.

Yeah, Fiona got on a bit of a sugar-rush I think. I'd forgotten about the traitor's vow, which she must have broken. But then Rachel's making mistakes too. I wonder how long before heat falls on her, and dominos start to tumble ...

Outing somebody would only mean something if you admitted to being a traitor yourself first. Accusing people of being a traitor is the whole point. Not sure she has broken any vow.

Not necessarily, you could claim to have overheard a conversation between the 2 other traitors discussing who to murder, then watch it come true.

But then Rachel's making mistakes too.

i thought she'd been playing it well tbh.  and i thought that disclosing amandas secret was also a good idea as it would then put the spotlight on jade.  you just couldnt account for fionas reaction.

Until they all go for Jade cos the copper is brilliant and thinks it’s her, then it isn’t, then everyone looks back at Rachel, the coppers best mate…..

 

I think. 🕵🏻‍♀️

Rachel won't take this sitting down and will be taking aim at Fiona

I have to say I've been underwhelmed by Fiona from the start and I think she played it terribly from the moment she became a traitor, the move she made against Rachel was so unbelievably clumsy, all it would ever achieve was to put the spotlight on both of them, the name of the game is to survive to the end, she played her hand far too soon and against someone much sharper. I personally think this will end up as a battle of wits between Rachel and Harriet, the perfect traitor and the perfect traitor hunter, or that's my hope anyway, they're both by far the most interesting characters for me.

I think a couple of people have picked up that the round table bust up may have been a traitor on traitor fall out.  Stephen is possibly off the hook for a while now though, moreso as the “library five” theory has been exhausted..

Harriet is by far the smartest person in the room.  Traitors have to recruit or kill at the earliest opportunity

I thought the “question the traitors” thing was going to be a whole bunch of nothingness as they could just lie away when answering, but kudos to Matt for finding a way to make it interesting.

As you guys are convinced Harriet is a genius, let’s see if she can come up with interesting questions. She seemed pretty flummoxed.

Rachel is going to have to play it smart when she gets questioned on what she asked the traitors (and how they answered).

Wonder if Reece regrets not mentioning being asked to leave the library by Rachel and Stephen? Also any chance Jade could crack a smile at least once?😁
