00:00Good evening and welcome to the grand finale of the traitors Ireland uncloaked with me Kevin McGahern
00:0624 players 12 episodes six traitors three coffins and only one party
00:11What a series so fun Lynn as we debrief that dramatic last episode with all our finalists. Wilkin. Are you following this so far?
00:19Fair play to you. But before we go any further
00:21If you haven't watched the final episode of the traitors do that now on the RT player as this episode will be dropping more truth bombs than
00:28Ian at a round table
00:30Coming up we will have Siobhan McSweeney here to give us the lowdown and all the carry-on in the castle
00:37We will chat to the traitors turned faithful slayers Nick and Ben to unpack that final day and the winners Vanessa
00:44Ian and Kelly will be here for their first ever interview. Don't go anywhere
00:47What a finale we'll be chatting to the finalists very soon
00:59But now we are joined by the queen of the castle the magnificent Siobhan McSweeney
01:04All right, that's actually that's like 20% too much. Yeah, no a bit much guys will rehearse it again
01:25Siobhan how are you first of all I am
01:27I am
01:29Overwhelmed and bewildered actually
01:32I'm really it's this is the first time I've seen I've just called them my babies
01:36I've just seen all the contestants there and it's really gorgeous to see them all
01:40And I have been away in a bubble filming something else
01:45So I really haven't been you have minute you don't know the mania that is sweeping across this country
01:50I I really don't imagine if all four Beatles were just potty. That's basically
01:56That's the level of hysteria. We're all the number of films we'd have about
02:01Well that finale was unbelievable was it as emotional for you as it was for the rest of us. Yes. Yes, I think I think what um oh
02:10I I think what people need to
02:14Understand is that we all went through and I think our lovely contestants would agree
02:19The production team and myself and we we went through it with them. We were working the same hours
02:26I mean nobody was working as hard as potty
02:29Although nobody ate as much as potty either
02:31So I think he got his wages from sandwiches
02:34Well, he needed the energy the poor man didn't sleep more than 45 minutes for two weeks
02:39I think but we were all doing it together and it like a really felt like we were together so
02:44It by the end we were all at our very last shred of sanity. Yeah. Yeah, we were all demented
02:52The the series was very Irish from the cupola fuckle to the cup on tea to the ole ole and don't even talk about the Carson
02:59I
03:00Now have one final important question to ask you
03:04Would you like a cup of tea?
03:06Yeah
03:08Tea
03:10Tea
03:12Tea
03:14Tea
03:16Tea
03:18Tea
03:20Tea
03:22Tea
03:24Tea
03:26Tea
03:28Tea
03:30Tea
03:32Tea
03:48Tea
03:50Tea
03:52Tea
03:54Tea
03:56and the whole challenge is to for it to be as good as the other one yeah and
04:01also to put our own mark on it really so it was really lovely that we were able
04:04to have the cuplafocle that we a lot of the iconography was very Celtic the
04:09ohm I loved the ohm yeah yeah and and lots of other things like even the the
04:14school benches beek you know with the little ink pots that's right yeah PTSD
04:19getting into them you know I couldn't get into them then can't get into them
04:22but for me personally it had to do with like all the Irish designers that I
04:29really wanted to can we have a round of applause for the outfits there's such
04:42there's such a wealth of talent in this country and we tend to think that we
04:47know what that is because we're usually trying to sell it to the Yanks yeah but
04:51actually there is such a wealth of talent when it comes to textiles and
04:56fashion and it's not just literature but if you noticed even last night's episode
05:01a beautiful kimono that I was wearing had Cara Deelish written on it and we had
05:05Fjalltor written on things there were there were little Easter eggs there that
05:09only added to the design so I'm really proud that I got to on my lumpen
05:15beautiful self got to showcase a few Irish designers you know well they were
05:20fabulous outfits I got to say thank you very much we have to talk about our
05:23three OG traitors Kate Oji crew starting with the only female traitor lovely you
05:34weren't like that before I tell you starting with our only female traitor
05:41Caitlin yeah how do you think she managed with the other two lads on either side
05:44there was not a bother to her what I what made me giggle about Caitlin was the way she
05:48came in like Pippi Longstocking hi I am innocent do you like my earrings I wear
05:56pigtails I must be non-threatening one of the smartest most powerful women I know
06:03just looking at her don't don't don't don't don't don't don't absolutely
06:07extraordinary but God bless you for thinking a few flowery dresses would convince
06:12us otherwise but by God you were well able well able for for the two boys and I
06:16mean like Eamon was extraordinary I mean I think Eamon like the biggest villain
06:24we've had ever yeah I mean move over Cromwell
06:32but what I loved about Eamon is that Eamon for me and he's just behind the camera
06:36there so I can't see him is he glaring at me no you are my beautiful boy and the
06:42thing about Eamon which I found so interesting because remember I was
06:45learning along with you as well you know like we were all guinea pigs this time
06:49round weren't we next year if there is one next year what'll be like yeah
06:54anyway hats lots of hats but Eamon went in with a game plan didn't he and he was
07:01like and I was like there's something about this show that if you go in with a
07:06game plan you're almost like look at Paul D I don't think Paul D and look how long
07:12he lasted so it's almost a question of being able to adapt on the hoof you know
07:17there was a real three different approaches to Paul D sort of wrote you
07:21like a jazz musician like he was just going day by day what's happening now
07:26okay I'm moving this all right now I'm gonna move this way yeah Eamon Eamon
07:29had a strict sort of plan that he wasn't gonna deviate from and I wonder
07:35whether that was how he was found out at the end you know like do you need to be
07:39more flexible it's very interesting but also how are you to know until you go in
07:42there do you think body's a genius I do I can't trust that answer after the
07:53longest laugh in the world will you be voting for party in the coming election
07:57oh but I'm running his campaign I'd like to live in a country run by body it's
08:05like free sandwiches at every bus stop like no parents no parent would ever say
08:12who their favorite child is yeah but come on who's your favorite child oh I
08:16couldn't say Diane
08:23what what is it about Diane you love so much well there's there's two and my
08:30favorite what I mean is sort of like people who I wish I saw a bit more like
08:34Diane you were absolutely wonderful and Diane for me you are the epitome of a
08:38kind of Irish woman that I don't see enough of on telly and you should have
08:43been there longer and also what I loved about you is that you were completely
08:46authentically yourself and so the eyebrows going up somebody explained the
08:56rules that's the game Diane that's the game and no I thought you were wonderful and I was
09:07gotcha to see you go you have you've an absolutely wonderful energy about you and
09:11I enjoyed you immensely I also really enjoyed Joe yeah I really
09:19and I mean I say I I you know I'm picking the two of these obviously you
09:28know that I loved every single one of you and do you give it a damn anyway whether I do you've been
09:37their mother figure for the last four weeks and that is why we're a nation of
09:41dysfunctional people but that final day was incredibly tense yeah it kind of
09:47became the girls versus the boys yeah do you have any inclination as which way was
09:51gonna go no I didn't but like that was this the whole way through we I've never
09:57I've never done a job like this before and by the end I was saying I will never do a
10:02job like this again because you would start your day in the middle of the night and
10:07you did not know when you were going to finish work for that day yeah you just
10:12did not know you would think every single time I went into the roundtable
10:15going I know what's going to happen the production team would go we know what's
10:19going to happen we know how many cars we need or what a lola and like maybe
10:24tell catering we don't need the sandwiches at midnight or what no it would all
10:28change we could never ever ever call it I think that's why it was such an
10:33enjoyable show to yeah yeah you just couldn't tell well you brought so much to
10:37this series from your fabulous costumes to your fierce one-liners you have been
10:40the ultimate queen of the castle let's remind ourselves hello lovelies let the
10:46good times roll what an outfit I'm obsessed with everything Siobhan wears hiya oh hey
10:56no apologies having a bath Nick and Ben he were nowhere near nowhere near it at all
11:03like honestly dudes welcome to my little sanctuary hello too good to kneel
11:08see you later baby dolls by placing a pisho that's a pisho Vanessa this will go much
11:15quicker when you don't annoy me open and now you know no I know it was his daddy all along
11:23this time we're Dave there's so few of you look gonna say time for you to commit
11:34your first murder delighted with himself ladies traders Siobhan on behalf of the nation
11:44on behalf of the nation I'd like to say Gurra Mahagat you did a phenomenal job you brought class
11:57cuplafuckal and most importantly crack to the traders Ireland 2025 thank you thank you thank you
12:07oh god another another two people who brought energy of a very different kind where our
12:13trader slayers turn backstabbers where there's Nick there's Ben this little bromance was like
12:18shooting a 65 around the golf course at the weekend whatever the fuck that means
12:22I'm so close to Nick in here that's my thought on every breakfast is he gonna be there
12:38there's no denying Ben is my best mate in here he's had my back I don't know how many times
12:46why do you think it's me you'd be like wanting to save me if I'm a traitor you're the first person
12:51who goes because you'll see straightaway the changement I really don't know who it is
12:57you think I'd leave you out of it so Ben do you accept I accept did he look after me or did he look
13:10after me looking forward to getting him on board working with him and murdering welcome to the
13:16conclave how are you feeling happy to be here now that I'm looking across my hood is with me you're both
13:20very delighted aren't you yeah couldn't work that better no thank you Nick and Ben what a series he
13:37both had from faithfuls to traders but at least he had each other so when exactly did you both
13:44realize that you'd found the one straightaway yeah right away it was like I gotta I gotta ask the
13:52synchronized arrow pull that looked rehearsed no I actually naked doing it actually I think when we
13:59got a trailer before I can't remember which one and I was like like that so then I was like when we got
14:03another one was like come on it was a beautiful synchronization I gotta say you got so far in the
14:10game lads did you get too cocky in the end yes describe this describe how you were feeling on that
14:25last day well it was a mixed emotion and we obviously the admission was incredible it was incredible to
14:31share with obviously our friends and but there's the thought in the back of your mind of what's to
14:36come and every round table was so intense so we knew eventually what was to come and uh yeah yeah
14:42and also you're thinking about what happened the previous night as well like yeah so kind of when
14:46everyone's coming in for breakfast no one's as you can see as you could see no one's really talking or
14:51it was awkward yeah so it was like the breakfast after a wedding after somebody like punched a bride
14:56yeah exactly like that's the crosshands there yeah yeah yeah Nick I gotta say though I like that last
15:02round table where there was a lot of heat on you like the girls came with receipts they did they were
15:07on you but you remained I gotta say very very cool and collective I I don't know I would have crumbled
15:13yeah I probably pushed about a little bit too far for that I'm probably it's a bit god much but like I had to
15:19fight my corner I had to go for it so I was never gonna back down we wanted to we wanted to give it our all
15:24so uh all or nothing I have to try and win but ultimately they called us out in our BS we were
15:29about shocked with that though because when we were talking we thought they were going to come for
15:32me so then you can see actually in the show when they say when I think someone goes for Nick and he's
15:38like because he wasn't expecting we were ready to defend Ben so I had like this pitch for Ben I was
15:43like let's go and then she comes to me and I was like oh fuck well we got a bone to pick with you
15:49over Faye like lads he's you backstabbed your best friend how could you have done that well
15:54it's um this is like a panto audience
15:59we um yeah we did we struggled with this with this one for ages because obviously the name of the game
16:04is to get to the final and get the money and we were on one side Faye was on the other so for us
16:09to win it we would have to do it eventually and yeah so it was a mercy killing yeah well we actually didn't
16:14know what would be worse taking her to the final and having to do it or or doing it then but so
16:19basically you did her a favor you're welcome thank you you're welcome show a bit of gratitude Faye actually
16:28yeah no it was it was horrible like we felt terrible for what we did yeah like you could see in her
16:31reaction we totally see we didn't want to do it but it is still just a game so do you do you think
16:36though if you kept her in you could have won 100 percent yeah but yeah there's that confidence i was
16:43talking about earlier yeah i still the fact that we don't know well i still felt anyway we could
16:50still do that and possibly win the game as well we might have had a better chance if we had kept
16:55there but yeah we don't know it it felt like it just slipped away when we did it though it was it
16:59it just with how strong ian was at that table she was incredible and it just felt like we had to go
17:05that way to save face a little bit and when when we obviously got rid of Faye then it was kind of like
17:10okay we're we're really going to struggle now to pull the wool over there they were so smart those
17:14three of them were so smart so hard to get by them and obviously they they they caught us
17:19well nick you were the man responsible for taking out future president of this country
17:24poddy have you anything to say to the nation who are still in mourning i know it's tough uh
17:29party was party was party that could mean anything and i meant exactly that no party played a brilliant
17:39game like i didn't mean to go for i wanted to like go on longer with party and obviously pat called me
17:45out um the day before with the letter rip i had andrew there and i should have the next day gone for
17:51party but i didn't because i i was trying to be loyal in that moment so it kind of came across like i was
17:55going for party and he he thought i was going for him but i really wasn't but i was just trying to
17:59make sure there was no suspicion on me so it had to go that way i think paulie thought i was going
18:03for him which i really wasn't oh my god can i can i ask a question please do do your wives trust you
18:11now they do we love them so yeah i knew we were only playing a game so uh i think
18:34you're not helping well once he had paulie out of the way there was only one man for the job and
18:45that was your bestie of course uh ben how did it feel to go from faithful to traitor so late in the
18:51game yeah i found it really difficult i really did i struggled with it um obviously me force
18:56murder with amy it was me force myself kind of a bit of excited with that one sorry everyone remembers
19:02their first time but um no after that yeah i struggled with it but not even just with the
19:09murders being a traitor with the banishments and knowing that they're not a traitor and people are
19:15going after them and seeing how upset they get like i did actually struggle but it was difficult but
19:20again you just have to keep on trying to bring it back that it's a game it's a game but in the moment
19:24it is it is really difficult and you struggle well nick you had main character energy from day one
19:29let's remind ourselves who do you think is the leader of the group move faster nick what are you
19:37at what do you mean what am i at because it's one lie on top of another i'm sick of being a traitor
19:41and i'm just gonna say to aim and feel me once shame on me but feel me twice shame on you gotcha dear
19:47nick we wish to recruit you obviously went into the room i just gave the big one on the camera
19:53at this stage the game is going to turn ugly and you're going to have to start eliminating
19:56people you just don't have that trust with are you willing to join me as a traitor i'm a faithful
20:00slayer now and yeah i'm coming for my game plan if i execute it it'll be like shooting a 65 around
20:06the golf course on the weekend you're so like a brother i'm actually we're only just saying there your
20:10wife is so lucky like want a hug no well thank you the most trustworthy person for me is nick
20:16hey i think it's you i'm sorry i feel sick putting your name down this is the hard part like
20:20book it's just hey think about your kid fuck this is not the hard part having my daughter at a young
20:24age she is my best friend if i want something we'd go to probably disneyland with the kids you're
20:30you'll make the wrong decision on me if you go with me paudy was half right i'm a traitor
20:46so nick what you know what was it like watching that back it was unbelievable um i i don't sure
20:56that didn't look like main character mainly main clown energy but it was good it was good fun um to to
21:01share the experience with the 24 cast members was epic they're all i'm so close to them all they're all
21:06legends every single one of them um obviously had a special experience with ben which was incredible
21:13it hasn't been a jazz but it was yeah the whole like i played it as a game i probably pushed the
21:20boundaries of a lot of things siobhan give us a break well ben you were voted the best at the missions
21:28you're an army man uh you're used to pressure let's remind ourselves of you taking control of the
21:33situation joe go in the middle you go on the left me and christine will go on the right joe joe you go
21:39in the middle you go on the left i'm on the left yeah this is the mission that i'm buzzing for yeah
21:43as soon as you hear a bit of water i'm all over it yeah put joe in the middle
21:47we have to carry it guys we have to carry it we have to carry it into the water
22:07now ben ben i'm no military strategist but i know that the first step to sailing is you put the boat
22:16in the water was that the hardest two weeks of work you've done since joining the army christine
22:21always likes me about it but i always said to her i'm in the army i'm not in the navy like go on
22:26and you're not going to be anytime soon let's talk about that final day and that final round table
22:32nick it all fell apart for you at that round table like what was your game plan going in game plan was
22:37kelly from the get-go we knew it was 2v2 so just tried to turn kelly in some way or another um we said
22:43we'd go for vanessa over a win and just turn kelly but she saw right through us and you thought the
22:48heat was on ben going in that was the big problem we would like we were kind of building ben's defense
22:52so when ian brought it to me i was going oh no like what do i even say here and she was so strong
22:57it was impossible to when ian puts those lasers on you i'd say your heart just shrinks sinking behind
23:03the round table ben you made it one step further to end game what was it like standing there as the last
23:09traitor without your boy yeah i know yeah like and to be fair he left a little bread coming for me
23:14like with the the party comment and uh i still knew the game was up anyway like i still knew that the
23:20girls were gonna get it right like they were they were brilliant they copped it once kelly had kind of
23:24made her mind up like i kind of knew what way it was going to happen did you ever think you know i can
23:30win this no no well nick you gave us one of the most memorable moments on the show would you
23:39mind one last time giving us the big one unbelievable ben and nick everybody
24:00after the break we will have the first exclusive interview with the winners of the traders don't go
24:04anywhere welcome back to the finale of the traders ireland uncloaked we are here with siobhan mcsweeney
24:29runners-up nick and ben and let's give a round of applause for the winners vanessa oil and kelly
24:34ladies that was phenomenal stuff like holy moly you're the whole country shouting at the telly
24:48like it was italian 90. vanessa how does it feel to have won the traders oh unreal like it just means
24:54like all those tears actually been something so yeah no really happy delighted oh and has it sunk in yet
25:00um i think it's like living it for the second time again so yeah definitely and you get to enjoy it
25:05with the full audience as well kelly now i you said on the show that if you won you would pay off your
25:12parents mortgage are you going to keep that promise absolutely i'm a woman of my word no doubt about it can
25:18you every that's every parent's dream that's every parent's dream can you reveal how much is left on
25:28the mortgage turns out and i didn't know this a whopping 50 euro 50. easy easy yeah five zero yeah
25:38you definitely knew that making that yeah yeah kelly uh when you were filming the show what did you tell
25:45your friends and family you were doing um to be honest it was kind of easy for me so i told them
25:50i was just going to work in galway but i had been like planting the seed because the whole thing for
25:54me was none of my friends would believe that i would go off my phone for two weeks willingly and i
25:58couldn't say i was going on retreat because they wouldn't believe me about that either so i had to
26:02kind of i started planting seeds really early on and it's like something my dad would do that he would
26:06like challenge me so i was like you know what girls my dad has been saying like i bet you like 200
26:12quid you can't go off your phone for two weeks so i was like you know what i'll take that bet and so
26:16yeah now they think i'm 200 euro richer like little do they know it's a little bit more than 200 euro
26:22siobhan optimino optimino are you delighted
26:29i am actually i am i am delighted the three of you one but like because it felt towards the end
26:38it just felt like you know that girl on girl i was going to say different show but you know turning
26:48on each other and sort of accusing each other and it's all very understandable misunderstandings and
26:53all this stuff and the two boils they're going can't believe we're getting away with it don't move
26:59don't say anything if you move they might catch you and then go for you whatever so i was really
27:06really i just didn't think it would happen and ian watching the final there and just
27:14seeing you at the breakfast table go like the meme that we all can think of where she went that would
27:21be she got it yeah because you have to to remember i didn't see everything as much as i pretended i saw
27:30everything i was probably putting a hat on in another room so i didn't know when the turn
27:35happened when he so slowly but ever like brought the ship around very slowly and started edging
27:42towards the iceberg yeah it was not away from the i think it was i remember kelly you said at breakfast
27:48they were like god maybe it's the two lads i just went oh yeah it was the first time we were like
27:56comparing notes and we were like pause and then we're like oh no yeah we're like we really just
28:03we've done that stuff yeah ian were you sure at that moment as soon as the penny dropped is that
28:09the way your brain goes you go oh don't don't don't don't damn yeah definitely knew then i was sure and
28:16then obviously ben walks in after i'm like oh we're just talking about you so like did you did you
28:22notice a change in in the well i suppose no still i'm still just worried about myself like you could
28:26see the breakfast before when i messed up with kelly's all on just like that was another great meme
28:32actually of being just going all right i was like was a nice guy uh kelly you had all the power going
28:41into that last day with this you the swing vote yeah crazy like a lot of pressure you had a big
28:45decision to make and it finally all clicked into place yeah my thing with 40 is right he was like
28:51protect the girls the lads and then all of a sudden he has vanessa's name down and then just
28:57throwing the blame on me he was definitely kind of trying to sway my decision and then he just kind
29:02of realized okay i'm gone so i'll throw out the person i'm angry's at it's name kind of thing yeah
29:08yeah or the person who recruited tonight yeah i don't know
29:13that was a sweet little trap you set there for nick like you i like the little side eye where you're
29:28like and he was like yeah well yeah i was focused on the next thing i was going to say
29:34yeah yeah yeah what am i gonna say you still have potty's name ready to go yeah yeah kelly was that
29:39the turning point for you to be honest still no like that entire car journey was so crazy like i was
29:44like okay well it's nick 100 but i still like maybe he's not working with ben maybe like it was just
29:49such a bigger picture then that i felt like i had to piece together and then i was like maybe he's like
29:53there was just so much crap as well i'd say she was just dizzy nearly listening yeah because he's going one
29:58way to another and he came back to me and was like oh man i've been working on kelly in the car
30:02here and i was going around yeah that was like that was the end of us yeah i think i have a
30:08bed yeah yeah come on come on yeah i think we had a chance here i think we had a chance victory
30:14laugh yeah i was like you're idiots were the three of you strategizing that final day um we didn't
30:20really talk about game plan honestly i think we just kind of said nick's name and we're like okay
30:26and that was it we just went into the into the round table and we were just like okay we're just
30:30gonna grasp our straws really and just try our best to pin it on nick because we really did feel
30:37like well myself i felt it was nick at that point and i was like i'm not like it's not gonna be me
30:42leaving the round table it's gonna be nick so bad place to be yeah that last round table was so tense
30:51once nick was banished being like what was going through your head oh so i put my head down and
30:57i was like really pretend like you're shocked with that nick and something like that but then i stayed
31:02there for that long that i was like well i can't celebrate now either so i just stayed there for
31:05extra and i was like what am i gonna do here and i think it was about five minutes and i'm still just
31:10like that you could have gave a very very sad arrow yeah straight to his heart
31:18kelly and ian like ye were celebrating like mad vanessa you reacted very differently were you just
31:24done at that point i was done about three days before like i was like begging production to go
31:30home like i just wasn't having it anymore it was just so much tougher than it was in the last two days
31:35we'd just been so wrong and i was just so deflated and i was sick of being in the middle of everything
31:40and it's just like even going into the round table like even coming into breakfast actually i just
31:45didn't care like i really didn't care anymore i actually thought nick was gonna win and actually
31:50like like convince kelly because like kelly had not been she'd voted for me what twice i think she'd
31:55already told me she didn't like trust me and i actually didn't even bother trying to convince kelly like
31:59i genuinely didn't care about the money anymore just wanted to go home it was just it's very like
32:04emotional in there and it's i know it's a game and all but like it genuinely just got to me and i
32:08was just like nah i just i'd rather just go home and let the let the guys play like like i feel it is
32:13important to to say like it is only a game and these are real people um apart from shivon mcswinney
32:22shivon mcswinney is uh i'm a real boy a demigod of some kind from our perspective we have to push the
32:29boat so far with the faithfuls that like it probably does nearly become too much and you you
32:35just have to keep pressing so like you you say you don't want to say stuff but you have you nearly
32:40have to push the boat so far to to try and like deceit them so it's it's terrible what we have to do
32:46and we definitely upset the girls along the way which we're sorry for and personally i never meant
32:49to do that but it's just part of it is just a game yeah and you just have to go that way and i think
32:54there there is there is a place for like you know slagging on a twitter and on stuff like that
33:01but like just don't make it mean you can do it in a fun creative way
33:11i just want to talk to end that by saying like until you've been through what these lads have been
33:18through there until you've been through what i've been like i i was saying earlier like we went
33:27through it all together production went through it with you like it is so intense people behave i
33:33behaved in a way that i don't recognize good bad or indifferent because you're in extremists
33:41you're in extremists and we're doing it for you for your entertainment so cop on and don't be
33:54we're all lovely moving uh moving swiftly on to end game nessa can i call you nessa we're not friends
34:00but me wow just met you like when when ben wrote nessa on that slate how did that make you feel
34:08honestly like it wasn't a game for me like i find it really hard to kind of separate like myself in
34:15a game like i'm just always me i'm always on so in that moment i really was just trusting kelly and
34:20oyan like i was being part of the team and playing as a team but honestly it was nearly impossible for
34:28me to fathom ben as a traitor i understood it logically but in the game i was just like there's no
34:34way he could be a traitor the exact same way if oyan became a traitor i would have been the last person
34:39who would have clocked it so i was just kind of i knew nick was a traitor and i like i think i was
34:44coming at you the day before and all but it's like when it came to just ben it's like i knew logically
34:49it makes sense for nick to have recruited him or for them to have been working together but i just
34:53couldn't i couldn't fathom him being it and when he wrote that i just absolutely broke down because at
34:58that stage it's like it's no longer a game it's now it's money yeah you know i mean like he's
35:02told me about his family he's told me about his kids told me about the plans that he has and it's
35:06like am i going to actually do this to somebody i'm seeing as it's got two personal i mean exactly
35:11and it's like i'm already an emotional wreck but that just that was it it done me like kelly that
35:16last day in the cut sorry that was too much what what kelly that last day in the castle it was
35:23incredibly tense yeah do you want to sort of keep your spirits up yeah they actually didn't show it
35:27but we ended up playing hide and seek across the castle because obviously like there's 24 people
35:32to begin with like that castle was crowded like you couldn't walk into a room by yourself so like
35:36all of a sudden we realized there was five of us and we had the whole place to ourselves so it was
35:40literally like we were like kids in a playground running around the place hiding under the couch
35:44like it was like the cameraman trying to chase us yeah yeah yeah ben's like behind the door
35:50i didn't find him one day but i get pulled for an interview and the way they're looking for me for
35:53ages but i'm upstairs i mean the other option was looking at ben and nick do you push-ups again like i mean
36:02well like me sitting on bed while he does it
36:06i'd love if uh wilkin was still somehow in the castle when you're playing hide and seek
36:11he was now now now ian the oracle you were so perceptive from the beginning wow
36:19but i was trying to think of it from a different point of view
36:22and i'm thinking because eamon i'm very hung up on him being a traitor and then caitlyn 2 is on my radar
36:27i'm thinking is this like a like a fight between traitors is it like they feel like you're a weak
36:32link and they're trying to like come for you i feel like my intuition is right and i feel like you're
36:38a traitor so i voted for you caitlyn i feel like you and eamon were working together there was a
36:44blackmail last night i feel like it would have been you even if you weren't a trader yesterday you could
36:49be a traitor today i'm a traitor um i voted for you punny i just feel like you were feeling with
36:57eamon and caitlyn and just it's all too coincidental for me to just look over
37:02the nation wants to know are you a clairvoyant and what are this week's lotto numbers
37:17well there's a fee for that um clairvoyance i'd say it's more just a lot of thinking i spent a lot
37:25of time in my head in the castle um and with my journal at night so it was really just working
37:33backwards and every single day i'd go back and just like write down the hints and the clues that
37:37i would find and then i was kind of just like work it all together so at the beginning i kind of wrote
37:42down the people's names who i thought were traders who could be traders and then people's names who i
37:46thought just couldn't and i actually had all the traders on the people that could be traders on my list
37:51so i kind of like worked backwards that way and then yeah pretty much that's how it works yeah
38:04well i think i think i speak for the audience in saying that you're all winners you've done such
38:09an amazing job you gave us so much hours of amazing entertainment you've resurrected irish tv
