The Traitors 2026 live: Fiona is unmasked as a Traitor after tense round table showdown with Rachel
Faithful Matt also made a bold play, asking the Traitors to recruit him later in the game
Fiona has become the latest contestant to be banished from The Traitors castle, after she was unmasked as a Traitor in front of her fellow contestants.
The 62-year-old became embroiled in a feud with her fellow Traitor Rachel, which eventually sealed her fate during Friday night’s episode.
Fiona had previously publicly accused Rachel of being a Traitor in front of their fellow players, after deciding that her one-time ally was “playing a game for [her]self”. The pair then went head to head at the round table, with Rachel eventually managing to convince the other contestants to vote out Fiona.
Stephen, the final Traitor in their treacherous trio, also voted for Fiona, after breaking down in tears while raising her name during the round table discussion.
Earlier in the episode, the feuding Traitors managed to come together to decide to murder Faithful Reece, while the challenge saw the players compete for a chance to speak directly to the Traitors.
Matt, Harriet and Rachel were all successful, with the former later using his chance to chat to the Traitors to make a bold play, asking them outright to recruit him later on.
The Traitors continues on BBC One at 8pm on Wednesday (14 January).

Meet the Traitors 2026 contestants, from a former detective to a crime writer
Maz has been murdered!
Couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy. RIP.
AMANDA HAS CONFESSED SHE'S A POLICE DETECTIVE
THIS IS NOT A DRILL. RACHEL IS FREAKING THE HELL OUT.
Amanda is going home !
Reece got the shield in his chest so the DI is banished from the castle.
“My house is your house,” she told the other contestants. “Take care of yourselves.” Apart from Jade, probs.
Rachel is telling everyone Amanda was a detective
This is (evil) genius. Now everyone is going to believe Jade is a Traitor.
Fiona is seeing right through it. “I’m not sure what narrative Rachel is peddling,” the Welsh queen tells the cameras.
“I think Rachel is lying.” Here we go.
'I feel I've been played. I don't like that'
Handbags and cloaks at dawn !! What is going to go down in the turret tonight !!
Oh my god
Fiona has just brought everyone into the kitchen and said she believes Rachel is a Traitor. Stephen is shaking and so am I.
