The Traitors is an British reality television series broadcast on BBC One, based on the Dutch series De Verraders, which premiered on 29 November 2022. Presented by Claudia Winkleman, the first series runs for 12 episodes.
The first week's episodes were uploaded onto BBC iPlayer following the airing of the first, with each subsequent episode being available on BBC One only before being uploaded to iPlayer.[1][2]
Format[edit]
Twenty two strangers arrive at an castle in the Scottish Highlands as "Faithful" contestants – hoping to share a prize fund worth up to £120,000 in silver bars. Amongst them are the "Traitors" – a group of contestants selected by host Claudia Winkleman on the first day, whose goal is to eliminate the Faithfuls and claim the prize for themselves. Should the Faithful contestants eliminate all the Traitors, they will share the prize fund but if a Traitor makes it to the end, they steal the money.
Each day, the Traitors come together and decide upon one Faithful contestant to "murder" – and that person will leave the game immediately. The remaining Faithful contestants will not know who has been eliminated until the next morning, when they will not enter the Castle for breakfast. The group then take part in a mission to win money for the prize fund and, in some episodes, also take part in a Shield challenge to win individual immunity from elimination, before individually voting at the Round Table for the one person they believe to be a Traitor. That person – regardless of their affiliation – is banished from the game and must reveal their affiliation.[3]
Full profiles of the contestants were published by the Radio Times magazine[4]. Meanwhile, The Guardian published a damning critique, but told readers that they'd be hooked[5].
Filming details[edit]
The show was recorded in May 2022, and action took place at Ardross Castle[6] in Scotland.
