Why did you apply for the show?
"Because it looks quite challenging. You don't see many shows like this, so when I saw it on TV I thought it was really refreshing to watch something different. So, I applied for the challenge, I wasn't even thinking about the money. Personally, I'd prefer to be a Traitor but if not, I definitely want to try and catch one. I applied on Christmas Day last year while I was with my family and they were encouraging me, I started it and then left it. I went back to it in the first week of January and now here I am! I wasn't quite expecting this."
What is your game plan?
"My plan is to be underestimated and kill with kindness. I feel like you need to assess your group first, you need to get to know everyone and work them out. I wouldn't play the same gameplan as everybody else."
How would you feel to be chosen as a Traitor?
"I think my heart will jump out of my chest and I'll have to keep my composure. To be honest, there won't be anyone at that table that won't be panicking. I really would love to be a Traitor but if it did happen, I'd probably panic and then try to focus on the calm. The only problem is there's lots of people trying to catch you!"
What would you spend the prize money on?
"You're going to laugh. We read this newspaper article, me and my wife, that you can now get your dog sent on a private jet to other countries. You can have up to twenty dogs and they don't have to go into the hold. I thought we could get a motor home and go across America eating all the amazing food and bring my dogs Lady and Lolly. That's as much as I've planned so far. I'm sure I should be doing much better stuff with it, but life's too short!"
The Traitors series two begins Wednesday, January 3 at 9pm on BBC One.
