BBC Traitor's fate 'confirmed' after huge 'schoolboy error' during roundtable

BBC fans who tuned in to watch the latest episode of The Traitors are convinced that one player has 'confirmed' their fate after spotting a major blunder during the roundtable.

Last night’s newest episode of The Traitors (10/01/25) saw Linda finding herself falling further under suspicion. The 70 year old has so far managed to keep her identity as a Traitor a secret, but this could be exposed soon.

Eagle-eyed viewers noticed a major slip-up by the retired opera singer during the roundtable dicussions. Fans are convinced that Linda's handwriting could be her undoing.

During Friday's episode, Linda and fellow Traitor contestant Minah wrote the names of four players on a piece of artwork in the kitchen, highlighting who they plan on 'killing'.

However this might prove to be a significant error for Linda as her hand-writing is seen on a daily basis on the roundtable. One fan noticed that she has a specific way of writing the letter 'Z'.

Taking to X, formally known as Twitter, one viewer wrote online: "Schoolboy error #TheTraitors."

A second person commented: "They never seem to recognise handwriting. If that picture stays up and the faithful recognise it, it’s game over for Linda at the roundtable. I can’t remember the exact rules for name writing but for drama reasons I wish Linda had written Minahs name."

A third fan also chimed in: "Part of me thinks a clever cookie will notice and part of me thinks Linda could write her own name on her board at the round table and, Jake aside, the others will still let her get away with it!"

After nominating four players to be up for murder, the fate of two contestants remains to be unknown until the next episode.

Alexander, Anna, Fozia and Leon were nominated by the Traitors to be potentially killed off. The group were then taken to meet host Claudia Winkleman and took part in a card game titled Deathmatch.

Each player was handed two cards, but those who receieved a 'life card' after the first round were allowed to leave. Anna and Alexander managed to escape, whilst the remaining two were told that one of them will potentially be murdered.

The Traitors resumes next week on Wednesday 15 January.
