The Traitors fans are convinced the BBC show's winner has been all but decided after Lisa made a surprise admission during Thursday night's episode. The Faithful contestant stunned viewers with her sharp observations, correctly identifying both remaining Traitors without realising it.

Lisa, 42, shared her suspicions about Charlotte and Minah at the round table. She noted that Charlotte's growing confidence was a red flag, while Minah appeared burdened, as though guilt was weighing her down.

Charlotte, 29, and Minah, 33, did their best to act surprised by Lisa's comments, shrugging off her observations. They also tried to shift suspicion away from themselves, but viewers were not convinced by their reactions.

While Lisa didn't confirm her suspicions outright, her reasoning struck a chord with fans. Many took to social media to praise her for her perceptive deductions.

The episode also saw Alex, 36, banished after his co-stars mistakenly believed he was a Traitor. Fans speculated that the sudden increase in Alex's screen time hinted at his impending exit.

One viewer wrote: "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 added: "The most Alex has got screen time, and now he's toast."

Is Lisa the frontrunner to win?
