Who won The Traitors UK Series 2?
BBCAfter a month of treacherous action, The Traitors UK Series 2 has drawn to a close. But who won? Here’s what you need to know.
Running around a castle in the Scottish Highlands trying to suspect strangers of being shifty has never been greater entertainment than it has in The Traitors UK Series 2.
Hosted by Strictly Come Dancing stalwart Claudia Winkleman, the twists and turns in the show’s second outing have left fans literally jumping out of their seats – let alone posting a lot about it online.
Now that the month of missions, round tables, and surprise funerals is over, who won The Traitors UK Series 2? Here’s everything you need to know. Warning – spoilers ahead!
Who won The Traitors UK Series 2?
Harry won The Traitors UK Series 2.
In the final episode, Evie was banished at the first round table after the mission, with the remaining four players moving on to the endgame. Andrew was banished after, followed by Jaz, leaving Harry and Mollie standing. By the rules of the game, Harry – the only traitor – took the final prize fund of just under £95,150.
In the build-up to the intense finale, Jasmine was banished at the penultimate round table, with Claudia announcing to the group that there would be no further murders. In addition to this, no shields were available during the final mission, with emphasis instead being placed on the sacred sword. Harry was the player who received it, facing an ultimatum of whether to award £7,000 to the cash pot or steal it for himself.
Heading into the final, suspicions were mostly placed on both Evie and Andrew. For Evie, this was because of her rampant arguing against Jasmine, who she fiercely believed was a traitor after a theory from murdered player Zack. Andrew had heat on him after the banishment of Ross at the round table, in which Ross tried to insinuate Andrew was lying and needed “to be looked at.”
Of course, Ross was right, having recently been recruited by Andrew and Harry to join them as a traitor. Meanwhile, mastermind Harry has largely flown under the radar – but the penultimate episode suggests that Jaz (nicknamed “Jazatha Christie” by the internet) was biding his time in the hope of bringing Harry down. Mollie, Evie, and Jaz are the only faithfuls remaining in the game.
Viewers’ predictions have also been rife across social media, with many trying to guess who won The Traitors UK Series 2.
“I think there are two ideal scenarios that will make television history tomorrow,” one user posted on X/Twitter “1. Evie is banished first because of the Zack theory, then Harry throws Andrew under, using Mollie’s trust to get her vote. Harry steals the money from right in front of Jaz and Mollie.
“2. Harry throws Andrew under the bus first, giving Evie time to connect the dots on Harry and the shield – convincing Jaz to side with her. They banish Harry (Mollie tries to end game lol) and those 3 faithfuls win.”
