Here are five of our favourites:<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">\u201c&#8230;But Ross is\u201d <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">A dramatic reveal uncovered a hidden relationship between two players in series two. It came after speculation that there was a mother-son duo roaming the castle \u2013 namely, fellow contestants Diane and Paul. To which Diane replied: \u201cPaul just couldn\u2019t be my son&#8230; but Ross is.\u201d  <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Hidden romance  <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Before that, came the original hidden relationship between couple Tom and Alex in season one. \u201cShe\u2019s my girlfriend,\u201d Tom announced at breakfast, pleading with the group to not label his girlfriend as a traitor. The announcement didn\u2019t quite have the desired effect, with the players descending into emotional, tearful meltdowns.   <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Detective Maddy <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">It wouldn\u2019t be a list of viral moments if Maddy\u2019s outburst at the Round Table in series one that subsequently turned everyone against her didn\u2019t get a mention too.   <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">\u201cFaithful, faithful, faithful, not sure, Traitor, Traitor, Faithful,\u201d she said whilst pointing at each player. I mean, at least she got one right \u2013 if you know, you know.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Linda\u2019s theatrics  <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">It&#8217;s hard to forget the much-adored Linda from series three, who didn\u2019t quite have traitor traits come naturally to her. First it was the head turn in response to Claudia calling out the \u201ctraitors\u201d, then the questionable melodrama at breakfast as she anticipated who might come through the door: \u201cOh my god\u201d, she said, \u201cWho the hell is not going to come back\u201d.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Jazatha Christie   <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Jaz from series two, also dubbed \u2018Jazatha Christie\u2019 for his traitor-detecting spidey senses, is no doubt one of the ultimate faithfuls. He was consistently on the money with who the traitors were during his run. It\u2019s just a shame no one would listen.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">We\u2019re expecting plenty more drama from this celebrity season. So, start taking notes as the game begins.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Traitors heritage: Five favourite moments from past seriespublished at 19:58 BST 19:58 BST Hannah KarpelLive reporter, and wannabe&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":198634,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[64,63,134,427],"class_list":{"0":"post-198633","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tv","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-entertainment","11":"tag-tv"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/198633","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=198633"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/198633\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/198634"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=198633"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=198633"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=198633"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
