Why did you apply to take part in the show?
“I applied to be on The Traitors because I’m a huge fan of the show. I’ve been watching it since series one, and I thought it would be something that I’d really love to take part in and just immerse myself in that experience.”
Do you have a gameplan?
“I’ve had a chat with my sister about what game plan I should have and I think, once it starts, it’ll be all up in the air really! One thing is it’s important not to be too boisterous at the start, because you can’t win at the start. You can only lose. So, I think just keep some opinions and some cards close to your chest at the beginning and then observe everyone else whilst spreading little nuggets here and there but not making yourself the centre of attention straight away.”
Are you good at spotting a liar?
“I don’t know. It’s difficult when you don’t know someone. With your mates, because you know them, you know when they’re chatting rubbish.”
Are you competitive when you’re playing games with friends and family?
“I love a bit of healthy competition but I’m not a sore loser. It only adds interest and excitement to whatever you’re doing, whatever game you’re playing or sport you’re competing in.”
How would you spend the prize money?
“If I win the prize money, I’d love to be able to spend it on me and my family to make a religious pilgrimage. To go to Umrah, to go to Hajj, would be really nice. For me to do that for my family would be great. If there’s a bit of left over, I wouldn’t mind putting a bit away for a new car but treating my family is my main goal.”
The Traitors continues Wednesday, Thursday and Friday at 8pm on BBC One.
