The Traitors Ireland

On the topic or the last 2/3 to enter. It doesn't appear that contestants have twigged this yet before entering the game. We'll see from tomorrow if they follow the same format for the Irish show but I do wonder if they'll need to switch it up for the British version.

It's a point discussed a lot more often since their last series ended so I would expect players going forward will understand how the game runs a little better from a production point of view.

Yeah but the people who come in last know they're the last to come in. So as the previous poster said, if they do it the same way as previous series to build the tension as people arrive for breakfast, then if you're last in you know you were on the chopping block.

Thanks, good to know.

So, if all tree traitors get banished fairly fast what happens then.

It's like I get it but I don't.

I find that whole father son connection kind of strange.

It's not the case.

You often have1 traitors as the last one back or in the last group. So you never know if the people arriving last are traitors or are faithful that are considered for murder.

Also might have 3 possible for murder but 1 of the 3 arrives back earlier.

So they do mix it up. ( granted for the first one I would guess that last group are all innocent)

But even if they vote out a traitor, any faithful could become a traitor so cant track it.

plus they add other tricks to the game where nobody gets murdered or they have 3 in jail where 1 gets murdered the following night etc. So faithful are kept guessing

And I still think it's a load of rubbish that the father/son are in it together.

Are we really meant to believe that both the father and son were going into the show and neither of them told the other?? Like who does that???

“Don't think I'll bother with the after program tough”

As the show gets moving this can be as equally entertaining and you’ll get more insight as to how the group is thinking - their reactions when they find out who’s a traitor are also great tv

“I find that whole father son connection kind of strange.”

Similar happened in the UK series last year- I’m not convinced it adds anything - in reality, it probably leads to suspicion within the faithfuls if they latch on to this fact, and likely both will be voted out.
If it doesn’t come to light, you’re then sitting there wondering “so what’s the point?” If one becomes a traitor, it might provide entertainment for the audience -ie- kicking out your own father/son- but again it’s not the “big secret” it might first appear to be.

The UK series last year introduced a few new things to keep the show fresh- we’ve seen some of that now already in this Irish series- I wonder will new aspects be introduced - I hope so as the show needs to stay fresh - for the early episodes I tend to save the recordings and then binge and “speed read” them- it’s usually the second half of the series I start to watch each episode - but I do like the traitors uncloaked show too and I’d watch that -

It's not really fair in a competition with a cash prize to have 2 members of one family involved and to pretend that they didn't know the other was going in is worse again.

That makes an awful lot of sense about the breakfast scene. It must make the show absolutely draining for them though of they have to film a load of combinations and I also read that the roundtable in the UK version can go on for two hours. That's a lot of conversation, nuance and facial expressions to constantly monitor

Spare a thought for the two plebs that were booted off at the introduction line up 😂😂😂

(is that standard practice in the UK versions?)

They took it really well..... presumably being briefed by production staff that they have now got a bye into the later stages of the show where they will mysteriously re-appear.

The Dave (?) fella caused a lot of shìt and loves the camera.... hopefully his stay is brief?

50,000 is pitiful. The US version is 250,000.
