Who is Stephen? Meet The Traitors season 4 contestant and consultant
Stephen reckons he has a good poker face...
**Warning: Contains spoilers for The Traitors season 4**
The Traitors continues tonight (8th January) as three players find themselves on trial for murder, including a Traitor...
As per the rules of the game, a Traitor can't be murdered, but Stephen's current predicament means he was unable to discuss which player should be next to leave the game.
That was all left in the hands of his fellow Traitors Rachel and Fiona. Will they choose a player than could risk Stephen's standing as a Faithful or could they bide him some more time?
As we wait to find out where the new season takes us, read on to find out more about Stephen, including why he applied for The Traitors season 4.
Who is Stephen from The Traitors?
Age: 32
Job: Cyber security consultant
Location: London
Stephen is a 32-year-old cyber security consultant living in London who has watched every single iteration of The Traitors, and has done some stellar preparation ahead of the series.
He has been rewatching previous seasons in order to get his head in the game and examine certain things people have done that were normal, but other players deemed weird.
"I think a lot of the play really depends on who's around you," he explained. "You have to read the room really quickly at the beginning and previous players’ tactics may not work here.
"Also, people are going into this game now knowing a lot more about how the game works, and I think that really means you've got to come up with a new strategy, your own strategy."
Why did Stephen apply for The Traitors?
Stephen applied for The Traitors because he reckons he could do really well.
He found that The Traitors is a show you can't watch without watching yourself in it and he "genuinely" loves it.
