Richard Osman Leaks Traitors Start Date!
6 Sep
Summary
- Presenter Richard Osman inadvertently revealed the new series' start date.
- The new series sounds more intense than the previous one.
- The show is set in a Scottish castle with 21 celebrities competing.
During a live recording of The Rest Is Entertainment podcast in London, presenter Richard Osman appeared to reveal an "absolutely embargoed" start date for the second series of The Celebrity Traitors. He stated the new season would commence on September 23.
Osman's co-host, Marina Hyde, and special guest Joe Marler, a finalist from the first series, were present. Marler's question about the start date prompted Osman's confirmation and subsequent attempt to backtrack. Marler noted that the new series "sounds like it was quite intense," differing from the first series, which he described as "very laugh-led."
The upcoming season will feature 21 celebrities vying for a potential £100,000 prize for charity. Set in a Scottish castle, contestants will identify traitors among them. The first series, which concluded last autumn, achieved a peak viewership of 15.4 million, with an average of 14.9 million viewers, making it the biggest TV audience of 2025.
