The Traitor's Amanda and Wilf 'secure' win with a week to go after tell take remarks

There might still be a week left to go on the BBC show, but many viewers are convinced that the Traitors have already secured victory, having fooled their co-stars.

Since it first launched two weeks ago, twisted new gameshow The Traitors has developed a keen and loyal following, with fans wishing it was on every night or on iPlayer to binge its entirety, as they find the wait between each episode absolutely agonising. Hosted by Claudia Winkleman, the show tasks a group of members of the public with working together to win a cash prize of a possible £120,000.

But as its title suggests, The Traitors is far from straight forward and since day one, Traitors, chosen by Claudia have been picking off rivals the Faithfuls, by 'murdering' them by way of a letter nearly every night, while the Faithfuls have been trying and largely failing to get rid of a Traitor with the nightly round table banishments.

While their fellow Traitor, Alyssa, is the only one of their number to be rumbled so far, Amanda and Wilf have seemingly pulled the wool over everyone's eyes and, judging by the remarks made by some of the Faithfuls during Thursday night's tense episode, it doesn't look like they'll be found out anytime soon.

During a chat with Amanda, Fay told her she knew she was definitely a Faithful, while in a similar conversation, Hannah said she was 100% on Wilf not being a Traitor.

Reacting to the discussions on Twitter in disbelief, one viewer posted: "the faithfuls saying that they don't suspect Wilf and Amanda honestly I'm rooting for the traitors they better win," with a second reacting: "The faithful are not going to win this series at this rate, Wilf and Amanda are too embedded into the group at this point."

Mulling over how they'd like to see things culminate, another tweeted: "if Andrea doesn’t win, the only ending I will now accept for @BBCTheTraitors is a Prisoner’s Dilemma face off between Amanda and Wilf, both choose to steal and neither gets a damn thing."
