Who is Keith? Meet The Traitors season 3 contestant and window cleaner
After lying about loving his wife's spaghetti bolognese for decades, Keith thinks he could be a worthy Traitor.
The Traitors is back for a thrilling new season over on BBC One, as a new group of strangers arrive in the Scottish Highlands to play a game like no other.
Despite only having aired just two seasons, viewers are hooked – and this time is no different, with two twists already rocking the contestants and plenty more on the way.
Once more, there will be Traitors among the group doing all they can to secretly murder their fellow players, hoping to avoid detection by the Faithfuls.
Among the Faithfuls is Keith, who has proven to be quite an influential character within the group. But could this prove a problem for him?
In the meantime, read on to find out more about Keith, including why he wanted to be a Traitor!
Who is Keith from The Traitors?
Age: 65
Job: Window cleaner
Location: Bournemouth
Status: Faithful
Keith is a 65-year-old window cleaner from Bournemouth, who plans to bring the comedic energy into the castle as the game commences.
"I've got that persona, I don't know what it is, it's just something I've always had," Keith explained. "I've always been the clown of the family. I get on with people from every walk of life, all ages, all religions, it just comes naturally to me! I'm never sad, never miserable. I don't take things too seriously and I’ll be bringing that to the castle."
Why did Keith apply for The Traitors?
It was after watching the second season and watching Harry Clark win that Keith told his wife that he could do just that – and so he did!
"I like to play games like this, it excites me," Keith said in a new interview. "It reminds me of an old TV programme called Columbo, he was a lieutenant, and he always knew who the murderer was. He knew they did it, but he just needed to work it out from start to finish. So, and that's why I applied, I just thought I could I enjoy these sorts of games."
He added: "Also, I'm one of nine in my family. I've got a very big family, lots of brothers and sisters who used to play tricks on each other, wind each other up, the works! So, with all that in mind, that’s why I applied for The Traitors."
