Just when we thought the BBC's thrilling, high-camp game show of allegiances, deception and rosé couldn't get any better, they brought in some familiar faces. The first celebrity season features an array of British celebs — and some very lovable ones at that. There's Stephen Fry exercising his Shakespeare prowess in the library. There's Celia Imrie, a sinister glint in her eye as she promises Claudia, “she's not that nice.” There's Alan Carr, sweating up a storm as the most unlikely traitor. It's literally so fun to watch.
Here's what you need to know about when Celebrity Traitors is on TV and when the next episode airs.
And more importantly can you stay there?
Celebrity Traitors episode one recap
The first episode of Celebrity Traitors delivered all of the surprises and big personalities we could have dreamed of. The celeb arrived in small groups in the signature Land Rovers (apparently, they couldn't be bothered with the train) only to find the cars all turned around once they reached the castle. The celebs were taken to a makeshift graveyard where each had a grave with their name on it. A nice and macabre start!
They were then tasked with digging their own graves in order to find shields. Six lucky celebs won the prize of immunity from murder.
Next, Claudia picked her three celebrity traitors: presenter Jonathan Ross, singer Cat Burns and Linda 2.0 Alan Carr, who immediately spiralled into a panic as soon as his blindfold was off. Yes, this is going to be iconic, thanks for asking.
After their first task (something about a Trojan Horse and puzzles), the traitors were given the task of killing their first victim in plain sight. They had to find a poisoned flower and rub some of the pollen onto the face of their first kill. Not an easy task. In the cliffhanger ending, we saw poor Alan tasked with the mission. We are so in and so ready for more.
