After series two’s nail-biting finale, we’re all ready for a fresh batch of contestants to join Claudia Winkleman – and her knitwear collection – in her Scottish castle. 22 players will enter the contest and be split into ‘Traitors’ and ‘Faithfuls.’ Although they can say which side they prefer, the choice is ultimately Winkleman’s to make.

The contestants are kept in the dark about the Traitors in their midst, while it is the Faithfuls’ task to try and get rid of them through round table discussions. They need to be careful though – voice their opinion too loudly, and they might find themselves getting banished in the night.

Last series saw an epic final showdown between Mollie Pearce and Harry Clark, who had become good friends throughout the series. Trusting her friend, Mollie played right into the palm of his hand, and Harry made it out with the whole £100,000 prize fund for himself.

The cast for series three is yet to be announced, but let’s hope they can match last series’ Jazatha Christie, devilish Paul, and diva Diane.

The Traitors series three airs on BBC One and iPlayer on New Year’s Day 2025.
