Elsewhere, a celebrity version of The Traitors was recently announced and the regular format of the show will return for a fourth season.

Hosted by Claudia Winkleman, the reality series sees contestants compete for a prize fund worth up to £120,000 at a castle in the Scottish Highlands.

As they arrive at the castle, a small number are selected to be ‘Traitors’ who have to eliminate the ‘Faithful’ contestants to claim the prize. However, if the latter manage to work out and banish the deceitful contestants through daily roundtable meetings, they win the cash prize instead.

There have been two seasons of the show broadcast so far, and the previously-commissioned third season is expected to land in early 2025.

Season two saw winner Harry Clark take home £95,150 following a dramatic season finale. Clark, who shared the winnings with his family and friends, later revealed that he suffered from sleep deprivation due to the show’s relentless filming schedule.

Elsewhere, Ricky Gervais recently denied reports that he will be making an appearance in the celebrity edition of The Traitors.
