This time last year I was enthusing about The Traitors (BBC) which I thought was excellent. I described it as “a compulsive peek at the nastier side of human nature.” But it was a bit of a one-trick pony.
Having seen The Traitors progress from start to climax once, with its promise of “detection, backstabbing and trust,” I'm not much interested in watching the well-hyped second series. Been there, done that.
