Returning to the stunning Scottish Highlands, host Claudia Winkleman will once again lead a new group of contestants in a high-stakes game of detection, betrayal, and trust. With a grand prize of £120,000 ($152,000) up for grabs, players will navigate through alliances and backstabs, all while trying to uncover the traitors among them.
What to Expect in Season 3
The show’s official logline teases: “We welcome a new group of strangers to play the ultimate game of detection, backstabbing, and trust, in the hope of winning up to £120,000. New series and a whole new game. But who will make it through?”
This season promises fresh twists and challenges to keep viewers hooked. Episodes will air on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday nights, ensuring fans have multiple nights of drama each week.
Traitors Uncloaked, a companion podcast
To make things even more exciting, the BBC is starting a podcast called Traitors Uncloaked. It will be hosted by comedian Ed Gamble.

It will be on BBC Two, iPlayer, and BBC Sounds after every episode.
What Will Happen to the Traitors?
