Could Freddie be the next Faithful to win the game?
After one young man in his 20s took home The Traitors prize last year, Freddie is eyeing himself up to be the next.
The third season of the epic reality show returned to TV screens last night (1st January) and introduced 22 contestants to the Scottish Highlands as they embarked on a game like no other.
Among those contestants is Freddie, whose competitive spirit will hopefully see him excel throughout the series – but not if the Traitors working against him have anything to do with it.
As the series gets under way, read on for everything you need to know about Freddie.
Age: 20
Job: Politics student
Location: Peterborough
Status: Faithful
Freddie is a 20-year-old politics student from Peterborough whose competitive and driven mindset might help him in the castle.
Having studied politics for A-Level and now at university level, Freddie believes he is "quite good" at articulating his points, bringing evidence and being able to hold himself in arguments, which should prove beneficial in the castle.
Reflecting on past seasons, Freddie revealed he admired Harry's game plan from season 2.
"Just because we're quite a similar age and obviously he won," Freddie explained. "I liked the way he played into the idea that you would never think it was him because he's just a nice boy, who's young, so people underestimated him.
"I also liked the Australian series 2 with Sam, the way he just got away with it, time after time is crazy, he was such a character."
Freddie was already a big fan of The Traitors, and after watching the two UK seasons and one of the Australian version, he decided to apply.
He explained further: "I just think it's such an interesting concept for a game, it's very strategic and psychological, and it’s all about using your brain.
"I think I’ve got a skill set that makes me suited to being quite good at the game and I thought why not just give it a go and apply, and here we are."

The Traitors continues on BBC One at 8pm on Thursday night and on iPlayer.
