If you're anything like us, you're counting down the days until The Celebrity Traitors drops on our screens.
Back in May, the first ever celebrity line-up was revealed, with Claudia Winkleman returning to our screens to welcome The Celebrity Traitors cast, such as Paloma Faith, Cat Burns, Alan Carr and more.
Just like the civilian series, Claudia will pick her Traitors and the game will begin as the Faithfuls try to evade death and suss out who the Traitors are amongst them. As usual, they'll complete challenges to earn a prize pot of up to £100,000 for a charity of the winners' choice.
We're happy to confirm that the show is kicking off in early October, so you've not got long to wait!
Read on for everything you need to know.
When does The Celebrity Traitors start?
Back in August, the Interim BBC Director of Unscripted, Syeda Irtizaali, confirmed that the series would premiere in October 2025, which means we don't have long left before it all starts.
Now, we can confirm that The Celebrity Traitors will return on Wednesday 8 October at 9pm. We're so excited!
The Celebrity Traitors host
Claudia Winkleman will return to host The Celebrity Traitors.
Winkleman has hosted all three seasons of the civilian series, so it’s no surprise she’s back at the helm for the celebrity edition.
The cast for the celebrity series was revealed back in May, with 19 celebrities confirmed to take on the ultimate game of trust and deception.
On the cast, Winkleman said: "We’re incredibly lucky these brilliant people have said yes. I’d love to say we’ll take it easy on them and they’ll just wander round the castle and eat toast for a couple of weeks but that would be a lie."

What is The Celebrity Traitors prize?
While the civilian series sees the Traitors and Faithfuls battling it out for up to £120,000 to take home for themselves and their loved ones, the celebrity contestants won’t be playing for personal gain. Instead, they'll be competing to win £100,000 for a charity of their choice.
