The BBC has released the list of 21 stars who will be taking part in The Celebrity Traitors season 2 – and it’s a pretty major line-up.
Rivalling last year’s famous cast, this year another crop of exciting names have signed up, including Maya Jama, Bella Ramsey, Miranda Hart, Romesh Ranganathan, Leigh-Anne Pinnock, Michael Sheen and more.
There’s no word on the exact air date yet, but we do know it will be “coming to BBC and iPlayer later in 2026”, according to the Beeb. With the last non-celebrity version airing in January and the first celebrity series airing last October, it will likely follow a similar autumn release date.
The confirmed Celebrity Traitors season 2 cast:
- Amol Rajan – Journalist and Broadcaster
- Bella Ramsey – Actor
- James Acaster – Comedian and Podcaster
- James Blunt – Singer/Songwriter
- Jerry Hall – Model and Actress
- Joanne McNally – Comedian
- Joe Lycett – Comedian
- Julie Hesmondhalgh – Actor
- King Kenny – Content Creator
- Leigh-Anne Pinnock – Singer/Songwriter
- Maya Jama – Broadcaster and Entrepreneur
- Michael Sheen – Actor and Presenter
- Miranda Hart – Actor and Author
- Myha’la – Actor
- Professor Hannah Fry– Broadcaster and Mathematician
- Richard E. Grant – Actor and Author
- Rob Beckett – Comedian
- Romesh Ranganathan – Comedian
- Ross Kemp – Actor and Presenter
- Sebastian Croft – Musician and Actor
- Sharon Rooney – Actor
While most fans seem thrilled with the new line-up, with one saying “what a great mix of people”, others have said it would have been nice to see someone from the sports world in there, especially as Joe Marler was one of the surprise standout stars from the last season. But with five comedians on the bill, at least we know it’s not going to be short of laughs.
Meanwhile, our terrestrial TV fashion icon Claudia Winkleman will thankfully return as host of the series and it will of course be filmed once again at Ardross Castle in Scotland.
We know where our evenings will be spent when the show eventually lands later this year…
