Fans of The Traitors believe they have spotted a 'telling' clue that could hint at a major twist to come. The BBC show, hosted by Claudia Winkleman, sees contestants competing for up to £100,000, with Faithfuls trying to banish Traitors and Traitors aiming to stay hidden.
Throughout the series, the camera has repeatedly panned to a bookcase featuring a book titled 'Who's who 1934'. Viewers have taken to social media to question its significance. One fan wrote: 'Am guessing this book has a list of who already knew who and who is related to who?' Another added: 'Why do they keep showing this book? I'm pretty sure the game plan is right there for the taking.'
Some viewers suspect there are more hidden relationships among contestants. One said: 'Beginning to think that the 22 that went in each have a relationship with one of the others. Maybe that's why they keep showing the who's who book.' The speculation follows the revelation that Ross and Ellie are boyfriend and girlfriend, which was disclosed when Ross was banished.
Ross later told the Mirror that hiding their relationship was 'the easiest thing ever', adding: 'Any time we had an interaction, I was happy to see her because I was under pressure the whole time, so Ellie was my safe space in the game. However, I thought she was a Traitor, because every time we had a moment together, she would not speak to me.'
The Traitors continues tonight at 8pm on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.
