Paul Gorton, 38, a standout contestant from the second series of BBC’s hit show The Traitors, is back with some insider speculation on who might be the next victim in the current fourth series. Known for his savvy performance as a traitor in 2024, Paul now watches from the sidelines as tension mounts and viewers brace for the next big twist.
Speaking exclusively to Birmingham Mail for WhichBingo?, Paul shared his prediction on who could meet a swift and unexpected end in the upcoming episode—if no new alliances shake up the game.
After carefully considering the key players—from Jade and Faraaz to James—Paul singled out one contestant who has stayed quietly under the radar: Jack.

“They’ll maybe [murder] Jack if they want to kill someone that’s a bit ‘nothing,’ not really contributing much—a classic red herring kill," Paul explained. “Who would kill Jack? That seems so bizarre. So yeah, maybe my money’s on Jackie boy. I think Jack might go.”
He also mentioned that the next victim could be somewhat of a surprise choice, highlighting other contenders like Faraaz and Roxy as potential targets. Paul’s thoughtful analysis reflects the unpredictable nature of the show, where alliances and betrayals shift rapidly as the final episode approaches.
With just days remaining until the grand finale—and the crown either going to a faithful or a traitor—the pressure in the castle is at an all-time high. Fans can catch the latest episode of The Traitors on BBC One at 8 pm or stream it on iPlayer for their dose of intrigue and drama.
