Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Charlie Manby: "I always wanted to be a darts player"
Q: What were Charlie Manby's early influences growing up in Yorkshire?
He talks about cricket and darts as the twin sporting passions, with cricket in Huddersfield shaping his teamwork and ingenuity, while darts offered a potential peak he always aimed for, backed by a strong family environment.
Reece Ward reveals what The Traitors is REALLY like!
Q: What was the filming atmosphere like on set?
It was intense and immersive, with 22 strangers under constant camera presence, but the welfare team helped keep things manageable and made the environment as comfortable as possible.
Reece Ward reveals what The Traitors is REALLY like!
Q: Did you have any television experience before The Traitors?
No, I had no prior TV experience; I applied out of curiosity and ended up in a life-changing opportunity through a long and thorough casting process.
Dennis Priestley: “I hope they appreciate the sacrifice we went through”
Q: I didn't know that was out of the world. Did you feel like you were the best player in the world between 1991 and 1994?
Yes, in 1992 I felt I was the world's number one, though by the 1994 embassy final I wasn't entering with that same confidence; my form fluctuated but I built on it as the tournament progressed and peaked in the later stages.
Liam Williams: “I organised the darts tournaments at Wales camps”
Q: Do you get nervous playing rugby, especially when stepping out in front of a big crowd for darts or rugby matches?
I've never been on a stage to play darts in front of that many people, but adrenaline helps, and the sense of living a dream makes the nerves fade as you get into the moment.
