The Traitors legend Paul Gorton has shared his thoughts on the current series of the hit BBC show with GB News, explaining why banished barrister Hugo Lodge was "weak".
Mr Gorton became infamous as the series two villainous Traitor, seeming prepared to take victory with his devious tactics before Harry Clark betrayed him at the last minute and went on to win as a solo Traitor.
With series four having started last week, Mr Gorton shared some of his thoughts as he chatted exclusively to GB News on behalf on 10BetCasiono.
The first three episodes saw Rachel Duffy, Stephen Libby and Mr Lodge selected by presenter Claudia Winkleman to deceive the rest of the group at this year's Traitors.

This year included a twist though, with one more anonymous player also participating as a "Secret Traitor". Leaning into his own expertise as a Traitor, Mr Gorton told GB News: "I think Rachel is probably the best Traitor so far.
"I think she's doing everything perfectly. She's kind of blending a little bit of me, kind of like, 'I will backstab anybody, I will do whatever it takes in order to get to the end. I don't care what people think of me, and this is just a game and blah, blah, blah.'
"But then she's also got that perfect bit of Harry, where she's kind of in all of the scenes, but she's also kind of under the radar.
"She's got this lovely kindness and warmth to her, but then she's also got this corporate, 'you can't mess with me' kind of side to her as well. So I think she is playing it absolutely perfectly and not put a foot wrong."

He continued: "I love Stephen. I love him, but he's made a massive error."
Mr Libby gave away some information in the latest episode, which inadvertently revealed he had been one of only a few people involved in a conversation, using the knowledge to try to stitch up Faithful Ross Garshong.
It backfired, though, when players began to question who exactly had been in the room to overhear the discussion.
"I think at some point it will come back to Stephen, because he gives information from the Traitors about Ross, and that could only be given by a certain amount of people in there, and the Secret Traitor could have been in that room," Mr Gorton pointed out.

Praising the events of the series so far, Mr Gorton added: "It's shaping up incredibly."
He went on to note why Mr Lodge had been banished so quickly though, with the barrister being the one who was caught out during a tense Roundtable.
"Hugo was okay, you know, he went absolutely bananas," Mr Gorton joked.
He added: "Hugo was always going to go as soon as he was picked.

"You can see a vibe of people, me and Harry had it with Ash.
"I think Wilfred and Amanda had it with Alyssa - there's always a weak one.
"I still only think one Traitor can win this game. The bond needs to be insane, and Rachel and Stephen have just made two bonds.
"They said, 'We won't put each other's names up, and we don't need the Secret Traitor.' But I don't think they'll stick to it."
