Claudia Winkleman's Celebrity Traitors Fears Come True as Viewers Give Harsh Verdict
Claudia Winkleman revealed comedian Alan Carr, singer Cat Burns, and presenter Jonathan Ross as the three secret traitors among 19 celebrities competing for a £100,000 charity prize.
- On Wednesday the BBC premiered Celebrity Traitors with 19 celebrities arriving at Ardross Castle, Scottish Highlands, and host Claudia Winkleman selecting broadcaster Jonathan Ross, comedian Alan Carr and singer-songwriter Cat Burns as the first three Traitors.
- The spin-off adapts the original format by having celebrities compete for up to �100,000 prize for charity, with Claudia Winkleman, host, calling selecting Traitors "incredibly tense".
- The first challenge forced contestants to dig graves for shields, with six players earning protection while wheeling a wooden Trojan horse through four gates in 30 minutes added �15,000 to the prize pot, and Charlotte Church surrendered a shield after Clare Balding's error.
- As night fell the trio met and learned they must commit the first murder to occur in plain sight using the poison black lily, ending with Alan Carr rubbing its pollen.
- Going forward, the series will air twice weekly on Wednesday and Thursday at 9pm on BBC One and iPlayer; each celebrity received 40,000 for nine episodes, and Prince William said he looked forward to tuning in.
