I really think the show would benefit from a sabotage element too - i.e. a separate traitor only prize fund they add to by making sure the Faithfuls don’t get to it in the challenges. The challenges can be the weakest part of the episodes imo so I think they could do with making it a bit more exciting.

I can’t figure out any way this would either work or add to the show. The challenges allow traitors to build a ‘team player’ narrative. Someone like Harry deliberately sabotaging a challenge would stick out like a sore thumb. It’s great that The Mole has a format point that works for them - that doesn’t mean every other show has to adopt it.

I think this series has been fun for wild theories being created that ultimately don’t come to pass - the Ross revenge arc, Jaz being a super sleuth but not actually catching a Traitor… I suspect tonight’s finale might feel a bit flat as a result.
