BBC The Traitors Charlotte 'loving the power' as Freddie's fate hangs in balance
The Traitors Charlotte Berman is within touching distance of the prize money after her cunning game plan has left Freddie Fraser vulnerable to banishment.
Ahead of the nail-biting Traitors final on Friday night, viewers were left stunned when traitor Charlotte threw her fellow companion Minah under the bus at the round table.
Adding fuel to the fire, Charlotte decided to leave Freddie with an ultimatium to join her as a traitor or be murdered and leave the game as a faithful. Trying to pull a blinder to the final, Charlotte knew the group were already suspecting him.
This has left Freddie extremely vulnerable when he accepted, as the pair also chose to murder Leanne who unbeknown to Freddie is protected by a shield, meaning mounting suspicions are hanging over him as only one of two people who didn't know.
According to a body language expert, Charlotte appears to be "loving the power," of double crossing the other contestants on the BBC show in an attempt to make it to the final and grab the cash for herself.
Meanwhile Freddie "darenât go against Charlotte" as he recognises she is a "strong character "and is "intimidated" by his fellow contestant, says expert Darren Stanton.

Speaking on behalf of Spin Genie, body language expert Darren Stanton says: "Charlotte is scary! She loves it, sheâs loving the power. She flashes duping delight, that satisfying feeling of getting away with something you shouldnât. Her face, the elation on her face that sheâs recruited Freddie and the fact she talks about âthrowing him under the busâ sheâs here for herself and is here to win. Itâs like a shark, a shark is a predator and doesnât care who gets in the way. Itâs whatever that person wants.

Elsewhere, he says while Charlotte is âhere to winâ, Darren worries itâs possible her plan could âbackfireâ and there is huge âriskâ involved with her expected move.
He also pointed out that Freddie is 'vulnerable' and how the decision to murder Leanne has been a 'real problem.' He continued: âFreddieâs quite sweet in a way, heâs quite vulnerable now and is friends with Leanne. We know Charlotte wants to murder Leanne for strategic reasons. In terms of body language, Freddie has a real problem with doing this morally but he darenât go against Charlotte as she is a very strong character, very cunning.
The Traitors
"Thatâs why sheâs got away with it so far, sheâs very good at manipulating the optics. Like he said, he didnât have a clue she was a Traitor, and no one else did. Freddie has a problem, non-verbally, when it was first suggested, he pulled a microexpression of sadness and fear. He knows his only choice to stay in the game is to go with it, but he doesnât really want to. Itâs a big moral dilemma for him. It was an ultimatum as Charlotte said."
