Who is Joe from The Traitors UK?

Joe is an English teacher who lives in Southampton but is originally from Yorkshire. Before he joined The Traitors UK, Joe hinted that his teaching career could be an advantage on the show, as it means his whole life is 'based around planning.'

He said: 'I have to plan for every moment, every possible question, everything that could go wrong. So, I think I'm already going to be in that mode, and I think it will be helpful. I think I'll be more tactical with things. I think I'll read between the lines, I won't listen to just what's being said, I'll think about what's not being said.'

How old is Joe from The Traitors UK?

Joe is 37-years-old.

What will Joe do if he wins The Traitors UK?

Joe has previously said that if he wins a share of the £120,000 prize money, he will put it towards driving lessons. 'I’m nearly 40 and I can’t drive,' he said. 'I wouldn’t mind owning a pub. I've always said I'd quite fancy being a landlord like Peggy Mitchell, but I don't know anything about pubs other than ordering a pint in them.'

Is Joe a Traitor or a Faithful on The Traitors UK?

Joe is a Faithful, which probably came as a relief to him. He previously admitted that if he was picked as a traitor, he would feel 'instantly guilty', regardless of the outcome. 'It's like when you go through the airport and you go through the check in and it's like, oh, have I got a weapon on me?,' he said. 'When you know you don't, but you just feel paranoid. So, I think to be chosen as one you're already going to feel paranoid.'

Why did Joe apply for The Traitors UK?

Joe was a former fan of the show, having tuned into it before with his flatmate after Eastenders had ended. 'I think I felt like most people that have watched it, it's such a fun show. I'm one of those armchair viewers that with so many shows over the years always sits there and says, 'Oh, I could do that. I'd enjoy that,' he told the BBC.

'I used to love reality TV growing up, but I've not watched it properly in years. I watch EastEnders so I was watching iPlayer, and this came on automatically after. I'd caught up on EastEnders, I was making a coffee, and I remember saying to my flatmate, 'I'm not watching whatever this is, turn it over.' And then we were drawn in and we just got so invested in it. It was like real life Cluedo, it just looks so fun to do. It's puzzles and clues and a big old whodunnit.'
