Minah’s big mistake could ruin The Traitors season 3

Minah Shannon has played the best game by any contestant on The Traitors ever – until now. The 29-year-old call centre manager has carried the third series on her butter-wouldn’t-melt shoulders as the perfect assassin, with the charm of a high street hun to the faithful’s faces but bursting with the ruthlessness of an evil genius as soon as their backs are turned.
I’ve never wanted anyone to win The Traitors more. I’ve always wanted a faithful and traitor to somehow clinch the prize money together knowing that they can’t but for the first time no one else deserves a penny of the prize pot. Yet sadly, after sailing through the first half of this series without a single faithful mentioning her name, Minah is suddenly prime suspect and I’m petrified she has just made a colossal mistake that could see her lose out altogether.
In the latest episode, after somehow scraping through seven roundtables as the worst traitor imaginable, Linda Rands finally fell on the sword of the faithful. She agreed with Minah beforehand that it was time for her to go and that she needed to be sacrificed for the sake of ‘the sisterhood’ making her the first traitor in the show’s history to voluntarily be banished – incredible.
Subsequently Minah the last original traitor standing, meaning she inevitably needed to recruit from the faithful. Determined to keep the sisterhood going, she was torn between Francesca Rowan-Plowden, Lisa Coupland and Charlotte Berman with her chosen recruit having to meet Minah face to face and either accept becoming a traitor or be immediately murdered.
