As The Traitors returned to our screens this week for a nail-biting second series, viewers at home were introduced to 22 new contestants hoping to survive the ultimate game of deception and take home a cash prize of up to £120,000.

To coincide with the show’s return, OK! spoke exclusively with series one sensation Amanda Lovett to get the inside scoop and expert commentary on all the drama, intrigue and betrayal that unfolded in the first few episodes.

Each week, Amanda, who only narrowly missed out in a place in the final during series one after a heartbreaking betrayal by Wilf Webster, will be sharing her thoughts on the show in a brand new column, that hopes to shed some light on the tactics at play and who she feels is playing with fire.

So without further ado, it’s over to the Welsh dragon herself… Are the Traitors worthy to wear the cloak this season? It’s been weird watching The Traitors this series.
