Claudia Winkleman never anticipated that The Traitors would prove an instant hit with viewers when it made its debut in November 2022.
‘It floored all of us and made us extremely happy,’ smiles the Strictly Come Dancing co-host, 51, who’s delighted to be back in tweed to welcome 22 new contestants to grand Ardross Castle in the Scottish Highlands for a second run of the BBC1 game show in which strategy is the key to survival.
Once again, dangerous Traitors will be hidden among their number and tasked with ‘murdering’ the Faithfuls without being caught in a quest to win up to £120,000.
