Who is Zack on The Traitors UK season 2?
"I'm just trying to see if I'm as delirious or as sane as I think I am!"
THE hugely popular reality show The Traitors has returned to screens for its second UK-based series.
The BBC show sees a group of contestants, including Zack, battle it out in a series of challenges while trying to uncover who amongst them is a Traitor.
Who is Zack on The Traitors?
Zack is a parliamentary affairs advisor from London who believes his job has given him the skills necessary to go far on The Traitors.
Reality TV appears to run in Zack’s family as his brother Matthew appeared on series 15 of Big Brother.
Matthew, who was part of the iconic show back in 2014, lasted 30 days in the house and only received two nominations during his time there.
Helen Wood ultimately won the £100,000 prize fund that series, with Ashleigh Coyle coming in second place.
Is Zack a Traitor or Faithful?
Prior to his debut on The Traitors, Zack expressed his wishes to be a Faithful and not a Traitor.
He explained: “I reckon I could win as a Faithful, essentially I’m just trying to see if I’m as delirious or as sane as I think I am!”
Luckily for Zack, he was not chosen as a Traitor during the first episode of the show’s second series.
Host Claudia Winkleman conducted one-on-one interviews with each of the players during the episode before she decided who to choose as a Traitor.
She then selected the Traitors by tapping them on the shoulder while everybody was blindfolded at the round table.
Zack had previously revealed what his game plan was going to be if he did end up playing the game as a Faithful.
He said: “I think the best way is to sit in the middle in the first few episodes.
“If you’re absolutely certain someone is a Traitor, I think you should be loud about it.
“I think you should call it out straight away because if you’re right and you trust your gut feeling the odds are they can’t vote you off because they’re not going to do that, so you have protection, you basically have immunity if you figure it out immediately.”
He added: “But on the other hand, you don’t want to raise suspicions so it’s probably best to keep quiet for the first couple of episodes before you know for certain who is who.”

Who are the Traitors in season 2?
In the first episode of The Traitors series two, three Traitors were chosen.
The trio to first be picked to go up against the Faithfuls were Ash, Paul and Harry.
Shortly after being chosen, the Traitors met up and found out that they had to choose a fourth Traitor from their remaining co-stars.
After much deliberation, Ash, Harry and Paul chose veterinary nurse Miles to join them.
Throughout the episodes, the foursome will have to work together to eliminate the other contestants while keeping themselves in the competition – and their traitor identities a secret.
