The Traitors Ireland Episode 11 Review: Can Ben and Nick Count on Each Other Ahead of the Finale?
The Traitors Ireland is racing toward its dramatic conclusion, and Episode 11 delivered a mix of tension, betrayals, and some truly bizarre challenges. With only six contestants left and just one episode before the finale, viewers are left wondering: can the remaining Traitors, Ben and Nick, really trust each other?
Breakfast Tensions and Shifting Trust
The episode opens with the usual breakfast drama. Kelley confided that she had no one left to trust, oblivious to the fact that she was sharing her fears directly beside Ben, one of the Traitors. Already, Ben was speaking of Will in the past tense, signaling what was to come.
Meanwhile, Vanessa attempted to smooth things over with a classic “sorry about yesterday,” while Kelley naively declared she’d rather lose than upset anyone—a claim the audience found hard to believe. Faye breezed in, swearing loyalty to Ben and Nick, but her confidence would soon prove misplaced.
Will’s Exit and a Strange Analogy
At long last, Will was “murdered” by the Traitors, bowing out with a strange astronaut analogy about meeting another species. His departure cleared the way for a mission that, while visually dramatic, was underwhelming in execution.
The Cooperage Challenge – Counting Chaos
The episode’s mission took place in a cooperage—a setting complete with masked figures, eerie swings, and the booming voices of previously banished players like Diane, Linda, and Christine. Despite the theatrics, the real challenge was… counting.
Ben and Nick, supposedly working in stealth, struggled badly, highlighting cracks in their alliance. In contrast, the women carried the team. Vanessa and Oyin banked €2,000, while Kelley and Faye matched it, with Vanessa declaring, “Girls on top.”
Suspicion, Strategy, and Faye’s Downfall
Despite contributing in the challenge, Faye found herself under intense scrutiny. Her flirtatious charm wasn’t enough to deflect suspicion, and behind closed doors Kelley, Vanessa, and Oyin tore into her strategy.
At the round table, tensions boiled over. With just six contestants left, suspicions reached a breaking point. Votes piled up against Faye, and she was ultimately banished—devastated, in tears, and shaking her head in disbelief.
Nick’s Tears and Champagne Smiles

In a moment that encapsulated the emotional whiplash of the show, Nick was seen dabbing his eyes with a tissue during Faye’s exit—only to be grinning with champagne minutes later at the celebratory banquet.
The episode’s ending was unexpectedly heartfelt as contestants shared their personal backstories, leading to an emotional reaction even from viewers who thought they were immune to the show’s manipulations.
Can Ben and Nick Survive the Finale Together?
The key question heading into the finale is whether Ben and Nick can truly rely on one another. With suspicions growing and the women sharpening their strategies, the two remaining Traitors may find that their alliance is shakier than ever.
