Hannah Fry turns codebreaking logic on Celebrity Traitors

9/24 @ 3:38pm by Morten Nielsen

Mathematician Hannah Fry is bringing serious number-crunching to the Celebrity Traitors castle

She has studied previous series to identify recurring behaviour among the secret Traitors, including contestants casting deliberately isolated votes early in the game

Fry says her approach draws on the logical methods associated with Alan Turing, although she admits the Faithfuls’ chaotic decisions may make useful clues difficult to spot

Her competitive streak could be another challenge

Fry would prefer to play honestly as a Faithful, while fans suspect her forthcoming UK tour may signal a strong run on the BBC series.
