A star-studded line-up has been unveiled for the upcoming BBC show, Celebrity Traitors. The show, set to premiere in autumn 2025, will feature a host of big names from Hollywood, TV, and the music industry, making it a highly anticipated series for viewers. Reports suggest that twenty celebrities will be participating in the first-ever Celebrity Traitors, with a diverse mix of actors, singers, and presenters gracing the screen.
Last year, it was revealed that Stephen Fry, the legendary Blackadder star, would be one of the contestants on the show. Now, The Sun has disclosed the names of 18 other celebrities who will join Fry in the line-up. The list includes familiar faces like comedians Alan Carr, Lucy Beaumont, TV presenter Jonathan Ross, and Good Morning Britain’s Kate Garraway. Additionally, Line Of Duty’s Mark Bonnar, sports presenter Clare Balding, and actress Celia Imrie are also set to feature in the show.
Celia Imrie, known for her roles in Hollywood films such as Bridget Jones’ Diary and Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again, is expected to bring her acting prowess to the small screen on Celebrity Traitors. Singers Charlotte Church, Paloma Faith, and Cat Burns are rumoured to be part of the line-up, adding a musical touch to the mix. Other notable names include Netflix star Ruth Codd, EastEnders’ Tameka Empson, YouTuber Niko Omilana, and historian David Olusoga.
Among the sporting personalities joining the cast are Olympian Tom Daley and former rugby union player Joe Marler. The comedic element of the show will be amplified with the presence of Ted Lasso’s Nick Mohammed, comedian Joe Wilkinson, and the hilarious Bob Mortimer. A source close to the production shared insights on the series, highlighting the diverse personalities and potential drama that will unfold on screen.
The unique aspect of Celebrity Traitors lies in the celebrities’ motivations, which are expected to differ from those of regular contestants. While the prize fund is still a factor, the focus will also be on how the celebrities are perceived by the audience. The show is anticipated to offer a fresh take on gameplay and strategic tactics, promising an entertaining and captivating viewing experience for fans.
With the exact premiere date yet to be confirmed, anticipation is building for the highly awaited series. Celebrity Traitors is scheduled to consist of nine episodes, with production gearing up to start this month. The BBC has kept details under wraps, adding to the intrigue surrounding the show’s format and challenges that lie ahead for the celebrity contestants.
As the excitement builds for Celebrity Traitors, fans are eagerly awaiting the chance to see their favourite stars in a new light on the competitive BBC show. The eclectic mix of talent and personalities promises an engaging and thrilling experience for viewers.
