    Was it Zack or Jaz that was going to be recruited?

    Diane was first I believe to suspect Ash, nominate her

    It's a shame she is gone as she was getting suss on Paul with Ross on Harry also, him recruited might be interesting, Diane's son now a traitor, sabotage revenge from the inside

    Roundtable is fantastic viewing when everyone speaks their mind like last night. Half the time though one person makes an accusation and everyone else piles on board cos they don't seem to have their own minds. Maybe it's nerves or whatever but at least speak up! Have been binging on the Australian one recently before we tackle the US Version and in fairness, the Faithful here may seem bad but they are definitely, certainly not the worst bunch I've seen😂 Australia Season 2 I'm looking at you!

    I think it's always harder in the first few episodes because there are about 20 of them around the table, don't really know each other and usually have very little to go on, so most people won't speak up and will just go with the flow. Once it gets down to about 12 or so people, the roundtable becomes really tense as most people really start going in on each other.

    Yes, and they can get a better look at each other, and at each other's behaviour when the numbers dwindle a bit, I guess.

    Not easily in Ireland no... I think if you have a VPN the US version is available on the BBC iPlayer though.

    I see media reports today that RTE are looking at doing a version. Not sure if they will be able to do it justice.

    I want Harry to win it now. Paul is too smug and cocky.

    It's getting interesting now and can't wait for it later.

    It wrecked my head last night when they all went to Paul and hugged him, telling him they now know he isn't a traitor. Idiots.

    Probably not as they'll get someone like Baz to host it😂

    That was sensational stuff last night. Miles was toast before the round table but he put up a good fight. Paul managed the situation pretty well to be fair to him. The faithful are still all over the place. Hope Paul and Harry recruit someone like Andrew. A patsy that'll help them get to the final.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 4,256 ✭✭✭MacDanger


    Harry is in pole position but I think he might be overplaying his hand a little by saying "do you think it was two traitors up against each other tonight" and that could come back to bite him in the end. Paul will have earned a lot of kudos from last night so maybe that's why he felt he had to make that move

    Jaz is playing very strangely, giving Evie the black rose in the task (once Diane wasn't the answer the Q3, it 100% had to be Evie) and then voting for Andrew. His forthright backing of Miles during the vote though might work in his favour as it's unlikely a traitor would back a fellow traitor in that situation

    The presenter is important, imo.

    I'm trying to think who would be good if there was an Irish version.

    Not any of the usual ones anyway.



  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Thinking the same. Paul has "proven" that he is faithful on more than one occasion and he was key to finding Miles last night. Harry has just floated along. He hasn't said anything of note at the round table. These little one to one comments could surface and he could end up in bother. I'm not convinced that he has the ability to work his way out of that position.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 58,606 ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Agreed definitely the most important role. Which is why I have zero faith in RTE to pick correctly😂



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 92,394 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Paul always surviving a murder despite being popular, vocal and influential which Zack has brought up, expecially him surviving over Meg needs revisiting if he is to be caught out

    It's a ratings winner for BBC both shows, uncloaked on BBC2

    I wanna see the reactions to Paul being outed as a traitor at a roundtable banishment if some grew a few balls voting him, come on Jaz, come on Evie, as it stands Paul is driving the game play

    How about Diane hosting the Irish version



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 2,012 ✭✭✭Hippodrome Song Owl


    Absolutely loving this show - how did I not hear of it last year??

    Diane is a big loss. The burial was fantastic tv though.

    I've thought from the start that Harry is the real threat. Paul definitely underestimates him.

    I would love to see Ross recruited now and take revenge from the inside.

    Zack is the only Faithful with any real cop on now.

    I can't think of anyone who could do Claudia's role justice in an Irish version. I fear RTE would go for James Patrice and it would be a disaster.

    Claudia is a fantastic presenter, how she doesn't crack up laughing is beyond me.

    The traitors are doing the work for the faithfuls, instigating it off but oh my delighted, Harry out played Paul who thought he was master, I was worried for Jaz



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,435 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    Had a feeling they'd pick Andrew.. but jesus, he's bloody terrible!

    The decision to murder means I'd say they're going to be planting seeds about each other.. well, Andrew will need to start being more aggressive.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,397 ✭✭✭✭BorneTobyWilde


    Finally kicked his ass to the curb , good riddance to Paul, he thought he was the master



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,851 ✭✭✭archfi


    Well, well, well.

    Paul's been done in.

    I will say though, Harry was way to specific when he was detailing the dungeon episode he literally repeated the Traitor's plan word for word but the failthfuls are so thick I think he might just be safe for at least another episode or two.

    Jaz, despite knowing Harry ran to Paul about Jaz's Paul suspicions (ie Harry showing big Traitor behaviour) was a bit OTT with his praise of Harry though I guess that's down to finally getting Paul out and Harry's pivotal role in that.

    Zack was unbelievably stupid when he decided to have a go at Jaz during the roundtable. I honestly thought that was Jaz gone when Zack led the way with pointing at Jaz (joined by Ross, Andrew, Charlotte and Paul) in the middle of Paul's roundtable demise. I mean, that's not the first time he's led strongly then pointlessly aimed at someone other than the target.

    Charlotte's a bit of an exaggerator, her 'fight' with Zack, her previous lying about what Zack said in episode two or three and tonight's exaggeration/lie to Harry about Paul pointing the finger at Harry. But it helped with outing Paul - I think maybe that's the way she is in real life too.

    I'd guess Charlie, Ross or Jaz are next on the block.

    Ross is as bad, if not worse than his mammy at this game - he'll probably make the final!

    PS I saw Paul on BBC2's not-so-great Uncloaked show tonight and he came across well, a bit of a wannabe TV zlister but perfectly pleasant man, but I'd say undeserving of the pure hatred some show him online!

    So glad Paul is gone. Such a fool. Even in his exit recording, saying Harry had learned from him - he just cannot see that Harry was always the clever one.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,093 ✭✭✭✭Panthro


    Aw I'm so glad Paul's gone though. Even his interview bit at the end saying Harry's learned from him. Harry's been Paul's puppet master!

    Jaz's only real arrow in his quiver is challenging Harry on why Harry fed back to Paul something Jaz said to Harry in confidence. He probably won't go against Harry though.

    Said it before, Harry's a stone cold baller!

    Feel bad for Andrew, his integrity will be his undoing.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 18,797 ✭✭✭✭fritzelly


    Dont know what happened to my post earlier about last nights episode - was saying what a great episode but Paul is not long for this show and Harry will throw him under the bus if he makes one false move, the faithfulls are still useless AF - Miles was barely short of saying he was a traitor and people still thought he was a faithful. Harry is gonna win this I think


    Then tonight's episode I just watched and I laughed along with Harry


    This show has definitely got better with the second half

    Harry went into way too much detail this evening about Paul, if any of the faithfuls had any sort of cop on they’d twig that he knows way too much and is a traitor, instead he looks untouchable.

    I wouldn’t rule out Andrew double crossing Harry and throwing him under the bus, he’s clearly uncomfortable as a traitor. He has seen Harry shaft 2 traitors already so it’s inevitable he will shaft him too, kill or be killed kinda thing.

    I am just glad Paul is gone, he was sickening to watch.
