This article contains spoilers for the first two episodes of The Traitors, including who was 'murdered' and who the Traitors were.
A contestant on the new series of The Traitors said he was murdered because he "would have been a threat".Keith, a window cleaner from Bournemouth, said "it's a shame" to be the latest person eliminated from the third series of the BBC One show."I was likeable, I was a father figure, I was a friend," Keith said after discovering his fate on Thursday evening's episode.The 65-year-old said he was motivated to apply for the programme by Harry from Slough, who won season two as a Traitor.
"I was sitting on the settee watching as Harry won and as soon as it finished, I said to my wife, I said, 'you know something? I could do that'," he said."From start to finish, he was superb."
Yin, 34, from Reading, was the first person to be murdered by the Traitors on Wednesday night's episode.She has a PhD in communication and said she could tell a lot about her fellow contestants during her short stint on the show - by looking at what they were wearing."The way you dress and even your portrait in the breakfast room, that is more signal than what they're saying and how you're behaving," she said."You can project whatever you want through words but the outfit and even hair and make up from top to bottom is your curation."
Two contestants from the south remain in the competition.Joe, a teacher from Southampton, and business director Charlotte, who lives in Hampshire.Charlotte, started off series three by pretending to have a Welsh accent.She was emotional in Thursday evening's episode when she was being accused of being a traitor."It's just not very nice not being believed... the heat is on me," she said.
The first two episodes of The Traitors are now on BBC iPlayer. The rest of the series will air at 21:00 GMT on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday nights.
