Can you actually train for The Traitors?

NEWSTALK
About this episode

Now, let’s talk Traitors - don't worry, no spoilers here this evening!

If you’ve been watching these series so far, you will have heard the players talk about their past experience as detectives, barristers or those who have had FBI training… so they have really upped their game this year to try and be the best player.

But, can you be taught these things so quickly? And does it really help with gameplay?

Joining Ciara to discuss is Darren Stanton, a former police officer, behaviour and body Language expert and also known as TV’s Human Lie Detector.
