The latest episode of Traitors Ireland ended in an unprecedented three-way tie at the roundtable, according to independent.ie. The Journal reports that tears flowed during the episode as the traitors faced what it described as a tricky murder. One participant said their head was scrambled, according to The Journal.
Coverage of the episode also came from RTE.ie, which framed the installment around the theme that trust is a curse. A separate Journal report described a moment in the episode in which one player said they had never been so happy to be blackmailed, with saints becoming sinners.
The episode also brought an elimination. Shannonside.ie reports that Donal Casey, from Leitrim, was eliminated from the show.
The roundtable result and the elimination are the main developments reported across the outlets covering episode eight. Independent.ie described the three-way tie as unprecedented and said it left the reviewer's nerves frayed.
What to watch next: how the fallout from the tie and Casey's exit shapes the next roundtable, and whether the traitors' latest murder changes the balance of the game.
