EastEnders legend Ross Kemp admits Celebrity Traitors gave him 'imposter syndrome'
Ross Kemp said he had three concerns about joining the BBC game show, but called it one of the best TV shows around.
- The Celebrity Traitors returns to BBC One on Thursday, October 1, 2026, featuring actor and documentary maker Ross Kemp, 62, who describes the series as "one of the best television shows around."
- Kemp views the series as a strategic game rather than reality television, praising how the format "transcends age groups and class." This perspective on the show's appeal attracted him to participate.
- Despite his extensive career in hostile environments, Kemp admits to a "bit of imposter syndrome" among the cast, contrasting the show's scale with his usual work in small, tight-knit groups of three or four people.
- Planning to approach the game with "honesty and adaptability," Kemp cautioned that being "too demonstrative in the beginning" risks quick elimination and warned against playing like a detective who "knows it all."
- Beyond the game's mechanics, Kemp emphasized personal stakes, stating he doesn't "want to let my family down by making myself look an idiot," revealing his deeper motivation for competing on the show.
