If you ever jumped on the Among Us craze a few years back, you need to tune in to Channel 10’s latest reality series, The Traitors.

The competition sees a group of 24 players, known as Faithfuls, live together in a hotel, where they will take part in challenges in the hopes to walk away with $250,000.

They’ll also need to figure out who amongst them are actually Traitors in hiding.

There’s a lot on the line because if a Traitor manages to make it to the end undetected, they take home the entire amount. However, if a Faithful is able to expose a Traitor and get rid of them before the final vote, they have the option to take all the prize money or share it with their remaining Faithful.

33-year-old legal professional Mark is one of this season’s Faithfuls, and he believes that his stubborn nature will serve him well in the game of The Traitors.

Outgoing and social by nature, Mark had some concerns about the prospect of being chosen as a Traitor. Before the show’s premiere, he said in a press statement that “the biggest obstacle in being a Traitor [would be] not being honest and not genuinely connecting with other people”.

“If you’re a Faithful, you can genuinely be with people,” Mark explained. “I’m quite an open book so I think I would struggle with that.”

In fact, while many players were going into the game planning on keeping secrets from their fellow competitors, Mark wasn’t so sure that was a strategy that would serve him well.

“I am considering ‘do I tell people everything or keep some cards close to my chest’,” he said. “But I’m struggling to see how that would benefit me. It’s really hard to maintain a lie, it’s exhausting.”

Rather than lies and deception, Mark said that he was expecting his ability to read body language and facial expressions well to be one of his biggest assets in the game.

Will Mark’s stubbornness and competitive nature be enough to get him to the end to claim the $250,000? There’s only one way to find out!

The Traitors airs at 7.30pm, Sunday – Tuesdays, only on 10 and 10 Play on Demand.
