Ok wait, a slightly more offline pal of mine thinks different breathy 'hahh' noises in #TheTraitors refer to different players, but only one matches the one when Claudia introduced the twist! More on this if it leads to something...

This Secret Traitor twist is tough for me. It'll please the chuckleheads who ask each year to turn the show into The Mole, but now the actual traitors are being edited as faithfuls and the actual faithfuls become largely irrelevant. I trust Studio Lambert can pull it off if anyone can.

If we're getting the Red Traitors Vs Green Traitors idea (two sets of two traitors, both know each other exist but not who they are and each team only gets to kill every other night) I will be both delighted and annoyed nobody took me seriously when I suggested it.

If Monopoly is your festive fallback for family fun then go directly to Jail and do not pass Go. A new wave of party pleasers, trick takers and strategy games can transport you to Stalingrad, the spirit realm, or even Georgian sex venues
