The Traitors Season 3 Episode 6 aired on BBC One on January 10, 2025. The new episode unveiled another banishment, with some major twists and turns. The fans would have been versed with the show's format by now, and with all the deception the new episodes bring. Hosted by Claudia Winkleman, the latest episode bid farewell to Dan, as decided by the other players.

Dan's banishment was a shock as he was the frontrunner for finding the traitor. As revealed, he was not the traitor but a faithful, leading to a tearful and jolting revelation. The traitors, Minah and Linda, like always had a clear game plan. Their task to eliminate one player was highly calculated, as it would affect their strategy. Linda was caught off guard because of her overly emotional outburst on Livi's murder.

Her crying performance for her "little girl" made other players think about her actual intentions, while Linda thought she gave the night's best performance.

However, for this roundtable, she got the sword off her neck by an inch. On the other hand, Minah was showing off her great strategic skills, skipping the roundtable wrath like a pro. Dodging the suspicion of fellow players week after week, it appears that Minah has found her calling as a "traitor."


What happened in The Traitors Season 3 Episode 6?

The latest episode of The Traitors Season 3 brought elimination for some and elation for others. The traitors, Minah and Linda, survived one more roundtable elimination, surpassing any possible suspicion that could ruin their chances to win. The episode featured a survival game in which Alexander, Leon, Fozia, and Anna had to show their quickness and agility. The ones to draw the life card fastest would be spared from the elimination.

In the game, Anna was the quickest and the first one to come out safely from getting murdered by the traitors. The rest kept on struggling. However, the fans had to keep their intrigue for the next week, as the episode ended with a cliffhanger, showing Alexander getting to the next round of the game. Fozia and Leon were left on the brink of danger, and the next week's episode will unveil the one to be murdered.

Meanwhile, the roundtable brought genuine distress as Dan was banished after a long deliberation. Dan has been going all out with the option of claiming that a traitor is someone close to him. However, he bore the brunt when it came to elimination. The 33-year-old Bank Risk Manager became restless as the faithful got eliminated.

He joined the show following his love for "strategy games." As he confessed during his introductory interview with BBC, he believed in not following the group and forming his own opinion. However, his overhasty approach led him to trouble, hinting to other players that he might be the "traitor." His game plan before coming to The Traitors Seasson 3 was simple.

He mentioned during the introductory interview with the BBC:

"I think it really depends on what my role is at the start. My ultimate game plan is to make sure I've got enough people in the game that have my best interests at heart, no matter what side of the fence they’re on. I can have allies if they're Traitors, but I can also have allies who are Faithfuls too."

However, those who have witnessed how treacherous the show could get would rely not just on their game plan but the ever-evolving nature of the show as well. The show will come up with another week of suspense, thrill, and betrayal. It would be engaging to witness the traitors, Minah and Linda, escape one more roundtable. The question is, will they?


The Traitors Season 3 airs on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays at BBC One at 9 pm ET.
