"Deserved to go" — The Traitors UK fans react to Dan's elimination in the latest episode

The Traitors UK continues to engage viewers with its mix of strategy, suspense, and betrayal in its third season. The latest episode, which aired on January 10, 2025, featured another roundtable where alliances were tested.

Dan became the focus of the group and was ultimately voted out by his fellow players. His behavior and gameplay made him a target in the competition. Despite his efforts to create doubt and shift attention to others, the group unanimously decided to banish him. Meanwhile, Minah and Linda, the remaining Traitors, successfully avoided suspicion and secured their place for another round.

Fans of the show took to X to express their views on Dan's elimination.

"Whilst sticking to your guns and withholding some information to protect your game is commendable. When you are outright telling lies, it does result in you being a bad faithful. Dan deserved to go," one fan commented.

"The “worst ever” Traitor Linda survived another banishment. All thanks to Minah quick thinking and attacking Dan. But Linda has made one big mistake she wrote Fozia and then picked her for the Death of Cards. If she survives she will get you Linda. Goodbye," another user commented.

"They clearly voted for Dan because he wasn’t a TEAM player not because they thought he was a Traitor. During all the challenges he was so selfish," one comment read.

"I’m so happy Dan and Livi have gone. Unlikeable knobs. Both of em," an X user wrote.

On the other hand, some fans of The Traitors UK expressed disappointment over Dan's elimination, suggesting he could have been a valuable ally.

"As much as Minah managed to get a wish with Dan's banishment. I think she made the wrong move and could have seen Dan as her ally and kept him in the game a little longer as Linda is likely to be banished at some point," a fan wrote.

"Right what the actual f**k why did they vote out dan and how on gods green earth is linda still here ??!!!" one netizen mentioned.

"Why on earth didn’t Linda vote for Dan? She makes it so obvious she is a traitor," another user said.

Fans of The Traitors UK further said:

"Kinda respect Dan for the way he plays. Not pleasant, but…Is Linda gonna escape again????? one fan said.

"Dan is way too wrapped up in strategy to realize that you can't get far in this game if EVERYBODY hates you and wants you gone!! a comment read.

What else happened in episode 6 of The Traitors UK?

One of the Traitors, Minah, tried to keep suspicion away from her in episode 6. However, Dan’s behavior took the spotlight as he tried to create doubt among his allies. His claim that a Traitor could be someone close to him caught attention but backfired in the end.

The Traitors UK's contestant Minah said:

"I like playing pranks on people and telling them little white lies, innocent lies. I think that's probably what drives me."

At the roundtable, Dan’s gameplay led to his downfall. Minah stayed calm and avoided suspicion, while Linda’s reaction to Livi’s earlier exit raised questions. Despite this, the group focused on Dan, whose self-focused approach made him an easy choice for elimination.

Fans had mixed reactions, with some saying it was a smart move, while others felt it gave Minah and Linda an advantage.

After Dan’s exit, this episode of The Traitors UK ended on a tense note. During a challenge, Alexander, Leon, Fozia, and Anna fought to stay safe, leaving viewers on edge for the next episode.
