Celebrity Traitors S2

[CaveMum]

Well seeing as I did the threads last year I might as well kick things off again for 2026 now that the first teaser trailer has dropped.

If you haven’t seen it, watch here:

As a reminder, here’s the line up:

• Amol Rajan – Journalist and Broadcaster
• Bella Ramsey – Actor
• James Acaster – Comedian and Podcaster
• James Blunt – Singer/Songwriter
• Jerry Hall – Model and Actress
• Joanne McNally – Comedian
• Joe Lycett – Comedian
• Julie Hesmondhalgh – Actor
• King Kenny – Content Creator
• Leigh-Anne Pinnock – Singer/Songwriter
• Maya Jama – Broadcaster and Entrepreneur
• Michael Sheen – Actor and Presenter
• Miranda Hart – Actor and Author
• Myha’la – Actor
• Professor Hannah Fry– Broadcaster and Mathematician
• Richard E. Grant – Actor and Author
• Rob Beckett – Comedian
• Romesh Ranganathan – Comedian
• Ross Kemp – Actor and Presenter
• Sebastian Croft – Musician and Actor
• Sharon Rooney – Actor

I’m guessing we’ll get 2 women and 1 man as the initial Traitors and hoping the Secret Traitor has been binned.

Will the Big Dog Theory come back? Will we get another Nick/Joe style bromance?

Feel free to espouse your theories on how it might play out.

I so agree. Madness to recruit someone who's been accusing Richard, and then expect them to change tack and defend him.

Is it all on I player or just today’s one ?

Easier to when you go second though?

Think they are only going in iplayer at the time of broadcast.

I was thinking that . For them to suddenly turn around and go “I was having a think in the shower and actually I don’t think it is Richard. No real reason for the change of mind just a hunch” 🤨

No, it is something he gets paid to do. As well as being a journalist, speeches, conferences, after dinner stuff. Putting a few words together to argue a point is his day to day work.

Amol will make a good traitor, but Richard has cooked his goose! I bet he doesn’t last long once we see the round table.

Finally caught up. Personally if I was Maya I’d be treating Richard as a liability and doing my best to get rid of him - best route to this is get shot of Acaster so that the heat is on Richard abd he gets banished at the first round table.

There is just the episode tomorrow then not til next Thursday so should be easy to get on track

Agreed. Had to leggit

If it’s like the civilian one it’ll be after it’s broadcast. The regular one used to go live when the broadcast started and people would jump to the end and spoil it online.

I bet Maya has already worked out that Richard is a liability and to get rid of him soon as ( as cave mum has posted )
I think they may go for him anyway.

Yes, that would be the smart thing to do.
But as we know, celeb traitors aren't half as ruthless as regular ones.

We’ve seen little of Sheen and Hannah Fry, so I’m hoping they go far.

I like Sheen and Hannah too.
They all seem alright really. Some big characters there.

Well I thought that was bloody brilliant 🤣

It was good tv wasn’t it. Very watchable and not ( so far ) like the last one was. I think it’ll take an interesting turn once they have a third one on board.

I am genuinely enjoying it

I am hooked. I haven’t seen many of the normal ones either , but with celebs it’s a bit different.

The celeb one has such a different vibe.

I think because they know each other, or of each other, and the prize is for charity.

That was fantastic <twirls>

My tactic would have been to have Ross there at the end plus say Bella and then just kill Ross without much decision to throw heat on Bella for the captains hat!

Ross is going to be avoiding all contact. I don’t blame him after the Paloma fiasco !

LOVE Hannah Fry! Hope she goes far

Ross’s paranoia made me laugh so much as somebody upthread said, his interview with Claudia reminded me of him in Extras
