The Betrayal Barometer: Who’s Playing the Traitors and Who’s Getting Played?
Season 3 of The Traitors UK has captivated fans with its nail-biting twists and turns. Hosted by Claudia Winkleman, the series places 22 contestants in a remote Scottish castle where they must work together to complete challenges and build a communal prize fund. That’s if you can make it to the castle!
Hidden among the group are traitors, secretly working to "murder" faithfuls and claim the prize for themselves. The suspense builds across three weekly episodes, with banishments, betrayals, and unexpected alliances and we rank each player who remains after every Friday episode of the season. Who are the front runners, and who have yet to find their voice, are their tactics working?
