Claudia Winkleman is back in the glorious Scottish Highlands as host and has opened the castle doors to an all-star cast who are all ready to play the ultimate game of back-stabbing, deceit and betrayal.
Joining the cast of The Celebrity Traitors are comedian Alan Carr, singer Cat Burns, actor Celia Imrie, singer Charlotte Church and broadcaster Clare Balding.
Historian David Olusoga, former England rugby player Joe Marler, comedian Joe Wilkinson, TV presenter Jonathan Ross and broadcaster Kate Garraway will also be partaking in the exciting new series.
Rounding out the cast is comedian Lucy Beaumont, actor Mark Bonnar, comedian Nick Mohammed, content creator Niko Omilana, singer Paloma Faith, actor Ruth Codd, actor Stephen Fry, EastEnders star Tameka Empson and Olympian Tom Daley.
Coming to BBC One and iPlayer this autumn, the celebrities will all be playing for a £100,000 cash prize for a charity of their choice.
Winkleman said of the series: “We’re incredibly lucky these brilliant people have said yes. I’d love to say we’ll take it easy on them and they’ll just wander round the castle and eat toast for a couple of weeks but that would be a lie.”
