Spoiler:

Christine is lives in the town next to where I live around a 10 minute drive away, tbh I found her really annoying

I've caught up now.

- I'm glad that Paudie's gone, he ruined the series for me with his bad gameplay and just not being very interesting to watch.

- The lack of likability is reminding me of Series 3 of the UK series, I honestly don't understand why Reality TV Shows love to make these kind of years so much lately.

- The editing team need to spread the screentime between all of the contestants better for Series 2 imo. Because there have been far too many contestants this series that were hardly shown before they left.

- Episode 10 was probably the best episode so far, it's probably the result of having good Traitors rather than a contestant being selected for the Traitor role just because the Show wants to tick an older person box to be "inclusive” rather than if they're actually good at the role.

My rankings out of the remaining contestants:
1. Nick
2. Ben
3. Wilkin
4. Faye
5. Vanessa
6. Oyin
7. Kelley - What a pathetic individual she is.

You have to bear with it...getting familiar with the characters now and making a difference.

I do agree to some extent.

I do miss having a contestant at the same level as Wilf, everyone in Series 2 bar Mollie and the other blonde woman that got to the finale, Charlotte last year, and Stephen, Rachel, James, Jade and Roxy.

The Irish edition has potential imo, but the casting just needs to be more standout imo.

…it’s a good group/a good edition, I’m enjoying it…..

Tbf we've had a Sisterhood year, so why not a "boys club” year?

What did you think about that? I thought Joanna was very full of her own importance, she acted like she was the only honest person there and imo (even though I'm not a Faye fan) she would have been happy if everyone had turned on Faye instead of her and was really annoyed that Vanessa, Oyin & Kelly went for her over Faye, I mean none of them were traitors anyway so there was no right and wrong/good vs evil there

Spoiler:

Didn't you think that Kelley, Oyin, and Vanessa were horrible for mocking Joanna for giving Kelley the shield though?

Spoiler:

I disagree, I think that Kelley was being mean to try and join the inner circle.

Spoiler:

He meant to manipulate her in the game.

I've watched two episodes of this and the sound-mixing is so bad compared to the UK/US one... the round table is so claustrophobic and weird

Paudie gives me the creeps. Can't pinpoint why. Also really not liking Nick or Nina.

Spoiler:

I cringed at Joanna's terrible game plan,she's whispering from group to group...did she not think it would get back to her ?? . It was a daft strategy to try and play Faye,Oyin & Vanessa against eachother, she was delusional in thinking it was
" survival" . When in fact it was shooting herself in the foot more like.

It's very odd that she kept saying she has nobody in the game and no ' alliances ', when it looked very much like Kelly initially trusted her , until she screwed that up . I mean I get the whole " everybody for themselves", especially in a game like this . But she executed it so badly,which made her look 2 faced.

Plus if she gave Kelly the shield...there must have been some loyalty there. Joanne messed up her own chances,and then makes the girls feel guilty by crying and calling them " mean girls" . Really over the top reaction. It's funny she would rather the boys win ,when 2 of them are Traitors .

I honestly think Kelly just lost trust in her ,and Joanna didn't help herself.so Kelly probably thought the Shield was a bribe tactic to keep her on side lol .

Spoiler:

Isn't it strange how Nick even pointed out how smart the ladies are especially Oyin ,yet never recruited her . Him & Ben are annoying and arrogant as Traitors,I'm just glad we didn't have them as Traitors from the beginning,as that would have been worse. Paudie did well ,it was refreshing to see an older person get far . I felt a bit bad about his banishment especially so close to the final.Nick & Ben think they have this in the bag , can't wait to see their grins wiped off

Spoiler:

It makes me think if one of the girls or even Paudie had that crazy idea of saving Katelyn, they would have instantly been banished, especially the manipulative actions . It's actually frustrating when someone like Nick & Ben show major suspect behavior from the start ,but get away with it due to having so much trust and influence on the group as a whole.

Like some bizarre halo effect. Even before Christine got murdered by Nick ,she said he was like a brother or something,as he was murdering her in plain sight with his nefarious little side hug .

I'm championing for an all girl win as well
