The Traitors Nears Endgame With New Dagger Twist and Emotional On-Screen Reveal

With three episodes left before the Jan. 23 finale, the competition tightens as the Traitors gain control over a double vote.

Overview

  • Host Claudia Winkleman introduced a first-ever ceremonial dagger that gives one player a double vote at the next roundtable, with the recipient chosen by the Traitors.
  • The latest episode reduced the number of contestants again, sharpening endgame dynamics without disclosing specific outcomes.
  • Contestant Jade Scott shared that her mother and half-sibling were found dead in 2018; subsequent Daily Mail reporting outlined further details and noted her father’s U.S. case was dropped in 2023.
  • Viewers debated the design of a box-based challenge on social media, with some alleging producers made tasks easier for the Faithfuls.
  • Fans also suggested a player may have made a strategic slip by referencing a prior 'confessional box' moment, which they believe could draw fresh suspicion.
