BBC’s The Traitors took the UK by storm again in December 2022 after season one was launched and rapidly amassed a devoted following by way of word-of-mouth, changing into one thing of a cultural phenomenon and a staple within the weekly watching roster.

Set in opposition to the suitably dramatic backdrop of an eerie citadel within the Scottish Highlands, the collection noticed contestants taking part within the final sport of betrayal and deceit because the “Traitors” had been tasked with working collectively to remove different contestants in hopes of profitable the grand prize, whereas the “Faithfuls” strove to determine and evict the “Traitors” by way of voting.

It is secure to say that the primary season delivered on some deliciously brutal moments of backstabbing and uncomfortably suspenseful shut calls, leaving us properly and actually primed for an additional season.

And we’re happy to say that as of tonight, that is precisely what we’ll be getting!

The Traitors returns to BBC One on 3 January, with episode two and three airing on the BBC the next nights and being instantly accessible on iPlayer (there goes our night plans for the remainder of the week).

With Claudia Winkleman returning as The Traitors season 2 host and 22 new faces preventing it out for his or her share of the £120,000 prize, we’re lastly being handled to a different collection of twists and turns.

So who’re The Traitors contestants this yr? Under, we reveal every of the brand new solid members. And as for whether or not they’re Faithfuls or Traitors? Properly, you will have to attend and see.
