The second series of the celebrity edition of The Traitors is set to return, with host Claudia Winkleman overseeing a new group of well-known contestants as they compete in a high-stakes game of deception and strategy. Filmed in the Scottish Highlands, the show brings together a diverse lineup of celebrities from various fields, each aiming to outwit their rivals and claim the title.

The 2026 cast features an eclectic mix of entertainers, musicians, actors, and media personalities. Among those participating are former supermodel Jerry Hall, singer-songwriter James Blunt, actor Richard E. Grant, and broadcaster Amol Rajan. The group also includes Bella Ramsey, comedian James Acaster, television presenter Joe Lycett, actress Julie Hesmondhalgh, and television personality Maya Jama, known for her previous reality TV experiences. Other notable entrants are actors Michael Sheen and Ross Kemp, comedian Miranda Hart, actress Myha’la (star of Industry), mathematician and television presenter Professor Hannah Fry, and comedians Rob Beckett and Romesh Ranganathan, both of whom add an element of unpredictability to the competition.

The initial series of Celebrity Traitors gained attention for featuring widely recognized figures, a trend this second installment continues. The format challenges participating celebrities to form alliances, deceive their peers, and avoid being eliminated as traitors in the psychological game. The first season’s winner, Alan Carr, was noted for his cunning gameplay, setting a high bar for the new contestants.

Alongside the main show, a companion series titled Uncloaked, hosted by Ed Gamble, will air to provide additional commentary and insights into the unfolding drama. The new season premieres tomorrow evening, with The Traitors scheduled for 9:15 p.m. and Uncloaked following at 8 p.m., inviting viewers to engage with both the strategic gameplay and the celebrity dynamics.
