Is there a celebrity traitors thread yet?

[CarefulN0w]

Cast announced as, Stephen Fry, Mark Bonner, Celia Imrie, Alan Carr, Joe Wilkinson, Nick Mohammed, Ruth Codd, Paloma Faith, Lucy Beaumont, Charlotte Church, Jonathon Ross, Kate Garraway, Joe Marler, Tameka Empson, David Olusoga, Claire Balding, Tom Daley, Cat Burns & Niki Omilana.

I’m looking forward to this. I have a feeling that it will be harder for the celebs - some of whom must know each other - to trick people, but will definitely be watching. I’m glad it’s a good cast with several comedians.

Now wondering who would be good traitors. Mark Bonner in a cloak would put a smile on my face, but I’m worried that Alan Carr could be a Linda.

I’ve noticed Frank Skinner has been very dismissive of him quite a few times “just reads from cue cards”

Ooh Bob would be fun!

Still thinking of Mark Bonnar in a cape…

I saw Stephen Fry at the filming of celeb mastermind and he was whipping through the questions, part way through he just slowed himself down so he wasn’t too far ahead. It was fascinating to watch.
I know that’s not a particular bar for intelligence but he just knew a lot of stuff.

It’ll be interesting to see if the celebs fall into the same traps as normal players. I can see some of those names getting quite thin-skinned if people “turn against” them or “gang up” on them. But as they are (mostly) more used to making TV shows maybe they will think more along the lines of “the producers would think x would make a good traitor” than “you are being traitorish behaviour”.

I bet one or two of them come across as massive twats too. Some people just can’t cope with being boxed up with other people for 17 hours a day with cameras on you the whole time. We might have a major flounce!

Interesting mix. Not sure if I'll watch as there's a lot of seriously irritating characters in that mix.

I'm putting my money on Stephen Fry as the first to strop.

He has been quite thin-skinned in the past so I would back your hunch on that one!

I only dipped in and out of the non-sleb version. I liked it but just wasn’t quite as obsessed as some people seem to be!

But Celia Imrie and Mark Bonnar will be the reason I’ll be definitely watching this.

What an interesting mix they’ve cast.

Seconded. Get the vibe of a superiority complex at times too. Strong strop potential.

I bet anyone who knows Bob Mortimer well still would have no idea if he was a traitor or not, meant in a good way

Sorry i read the list again, I heard he was

❤️

They’re not going to tell us who is a traitor now 🤪

Sorry I meant in did not see Bob on the list of contestants

@FreddoSwagginsI would go with Jonathan Ross for a sudden strop!

@BlondiePortz Richard Osman said the list going around is incomplete!

Hadn't spotted Jonathan Ross' nane was on the list. Well he'll up the irritating viewing dramatically. Not sure about strop for him, I'll have hin down fo first condescending snipe.

Though obviously if we're opening a book on this, we'll need clear and unambiguous definitions of each category 😀.

Looking forward to it. I've never watched Traitors but this is a great cast list.

I thought daisy May cooper and her brother were doing this so I wonder if they will appear later?

Definitely @FreddoSwaggins !

I heard that they decided not to do it

Interesting mix of people but it would be great if the individuals with big egos didn't win. I'm not sure if Bob Mortimer would do it as it's so far out of his comfort zone, but I'd love it if he did.

Has anyone seen the New Zealand one? It was HILARIOUS. They all knew each other and by the third episode it showed, the voiceover at the start said 12 (or whatever) strangers stay in a castle.... but they clearly weren't strangers.

Good. That would actually have put me off.
