Very strong ratings for The Traitors last night

Up 1.2 million on last series's finale - and there's still 4 episodes to go

It's arguably also a sign that linear TV isn't quite as dead as some would have you believe.

As mentioned by cityprod given the popularity of The Traitors it's slightly surprising that no channel has decided to commission a new UK series of The Mole. I dare say with the original Channel 5 series they may have been slightly ahead of their time with the format, though it did last two series.
