Series four of The Traitors is in full swing, bringing all that we hoped it would – unexpected twists, roundtable meltdowns, hidden player connections, turret tension, and of course, a deluge of Claudia Winkleman cutaways.
No Alan Carr quips, granted, but as I texted a friend on Friday evening: “This is astonishingly good telly.”
However, for all the highs, this series has also added further weight to the argument that unconscious racial bias has shaped the outcome of the show.
Countless social media posts, column inches, and even TV interviews dedicated to the issue have become borderline impossible to ignore – and are predictably divisive, often leaving viewers with more questions than answers about if, and how, they should respond.
