Celebrity Traitors returns for a second series with 21 famous contestants competing in Claudia Winkleman’s deception-based castle game. The winner will receive £100,000 for a chosen charity, while contestants must identify the hidden traitors before being secretly eliminated; the new series follows Alan Carr’s memorable victory last year.

The article highlights comedians Joe Lycett, James Acaster, Romesh Ranganathan, Rob Beckett, Miranda Hart and Joanne McNally as potential standouts. Their humour, friendships, public personas and apparent honesty could help them blend in—or make them especially convincing traitors—though each faces the challenge of surviving suspicion at the roundtable.
