Think Traitors, but make it even better. This week, the long-awaited Celebrity Traitors will be debuting on BBC One – giving us the chance to see celebs like Alan Carr, Jonathan Ross, Stephen Fry and Paloma Faith duke it out in the castle.
The premise of the show is simple. 19 celebs will enter the famous castle in the hills of Scotland. Three of those celebs will be secretly made into Traitors: tasked with murdering the rest of the cast without getting found out.
The remaining cast, dubbed the Faithfuls, have the chance to get rid of those Traitors by ‘banishing’ those they think are guilty in a round table vote at the end of every day.
It’s set to be as nail-biting as ever (even if the prize money is going to charity this time) – but when exactly will the show be airing, and how can you watch? Here’s what to know.
Unlike previous seasons of the show, which showed three episodes a week, this will only show two, but there is good news: the first episode will be a stonking 70 minutes long.
After that, episodes will be an hour long, with episode two airing at 9pm on Thursday, October 9.
Following episodes will air on Wednesday and Thursday nights at 9pm. So episode three will air at 9pm on Wednesday October 15, and episode four on Thursday October 16.
