The traitors clue 'gave away' who would be banished before brutal round table

THE TRAITORS UK VIEWERS SPOTTED A SIGN BEFORE THE ROUND TABLE EVEN AIRED THAT CONTESTANT ALEX WOULD BE ACCUSED OF BEING A TRAITOR AND BE AXED FROM THE BBC SERIES 22:24, 16 Jan 2025Updated

22:25, 16 Jan 2025 The Traitors aired quite an abrupt end for Faithful Alex on the BBC series on Thursday night. He sparked his own downfall with a rather awkward comment, that left his

co-stars convinced he was a Traitor. The real Traitors Charlotte and Minah only encouraged this discussion, as Alex well and truly put his foot in it. But fans were sure there was a telling

clue before this comment and before the banishment aired that Alex was on his way out of the castle. The comment that no doubt sealed his fate was a remark about Linda, a Traitor who was

banished a day earlier. He discussed her voting technique in a bid to see if they could work out who she was working with. But in doing this, Alex made a comment that left Joe and others

suspicious. Alex commented that Linda had never thrown a Traitor under the bus with her round table votes. Joe was quick to question how he could have known that given only one Traitor had

been exposed prior to Linda's demise. As Alex tried to defend what he meant, Joe, Francesca and others were convinced Alex was a Traitor and had accidentally slipped up. They suggested

Alex had to be guilty and that his comment was him accidentally revealing all. Article continues belowREAD MORE: The Traitors fans 'solve Minah's downfall' after telling

Charlotte scene Of course viewers knew this was not the case and he was a Faithful, but it suddenly dawned on them Alex was doomed. Convinced Alex was going to be banished they suddenly

realised a "clue" that had perhaps given away Alex's fate all along. They noticed something about the latest episode that might have hinted at Alex's exit looming, with

him eventually banished near the end. Fans commented that Alex had not featured in much of the edit all series, until Thursday's episode. Article continues below Viewers claimed they

had wondered why he suddenly had so much screen time, and they believed his looming and eventual exit was why he suddenly had so many scenes. Taking to X, one viewer posted: "Alex is

getting a lot more airtime today - I’m getting the vibe he’s not going to make it to the next episode." Another viewer agreed with this, posting online: "The most Alex has got

screen time." A third viewer said: "Oh that’s why they suddenly decided to put Alex in the edit, he’s toast," as a fourth wrote: "Getting screen time for once and now

this..... goodbye Alex." THE TRAITORS UK AIRS WEDNESDAYS, THURSDAYS AND FRIDAYS AT 9PM ON BBC ONE AND BBC IPLAYER. * FOLLOW MIRROR CELEBS AND TV ON TIKTOK , SNAPCHAT , INSTAGRAM ,
