With yet another series of The Traitors coming to the BBC this week, fans will be eager to learn more about the celebrity contestants taking part.

Celebrity Traitors, like the original version of the show, is filmed at Ardross Castle in the Scottish Highlands.

It also enjoys the same premise, with the faithfuls attempting to root out a small group of Traitors to secure for themselves the cash prize.

The main difference for the celebrities is that they are playing for their chosen charities.

When does Celebrity Traitors 2025 start?

Celebrity Traitors 2025 will start on Wednesday, October 8 and air on BBC One at 9pm.

The new season, as well as previous episodes of the programme, will be available to stream on demand via BBC iPlayer.
