The BBC is set to premiere "Celebrity Traitors UK" in autumn 2025, a celebrity edition of the popular reality series "The Traitors." Hosted by Claudia Winkleman, the show will feature 19 well-known personalities competing in a murder-mystery format.
Filming took place at Ardross Castle in the Scottish Highlands, with production concluding in May 2025. The series comprises nine episodes, set to air over three weeks. The contestants include comedian Alan Carr, singer Paloma Faith, actor Stephen Fry, and television presenter Clare Balding, among others.
In the game, celebrities start as "Faithfuls," with a few secretly selected as "Traitors" aiming to deceive the rest. Through various missions, players build a prize fund of up to £120,000, with celebrities aiming to win up to £100,000 for charity. Regular banishments and "murders" spice up the gameplay, culminating in either the Faithfuls or a remaining Traitor claiming the prize.
The show has generated significant buzz, with fans eager to see how these celebrities navigate the challenges and deceptions inherent in the game. A trailer has not yet been released, but anticipation continues to build as the premiere approaches.
"Celebrity Traitors UK" promises to be an exciting addition to the BBC's lineup, blending the intrigue of "The Traitors" with the star power of its celebrity contestants. Viewers can look forward to a thrilling and entertaining series when it airs later this year.
