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.

Same here. I have had a death in the family and need distraction desperately. And my Claudia fix! Hope her outfits are wacky.

I AM SO EXCITED

I hope they do another secret traitor.

Nah, didn’t like the secret traitor. I can’t watch tonight as DD is working so we will try to survive until tomorrow night without finding out who the traitors are 😱

Sorry to hear that @friedaklein. And best wishes to you too @Jimsaidpeoplearestrange.

I haven’t seen anything about Claudia’s outfits yet - last year there were advance comments about lots of tulle!

Here’s what I can find to keep us ticking over until tonight

I saw somewhere that she said it has ‘gone a bit artful dodger’ this time 🤷‍♀️

Traitors chocolate muffins in Iceland, eh? Drat. I was quite close to a branch about an hour ago and would have got some if I'd known. Oh well, we will have to make do with Maltesers instead.😂

Given that they're all public figures and know how the industry works they must have conversations along the lines of "they wouldn't choose all men for the traitors" or "they're not going to choose all white people". I suppose those conversations are edited out. I'd love to be a fly on the wall in the edit.

I don't want any argy bargy, or stuff that strays into reality TV territory. I'm looking forward to James Blunt, Myha'la and Richard E Grant.

Arggh, I have a Welsh class from 7-9. I feel the BBC should have taken account of my availability 😼

sorry to hear that.
mine was just an operation.

Cannot wait!

DH and I binged last years Celebrity Traitors last Christmas followed by all the normal seasons.
This is the first time watching live. How many nights a week is it on?

I have a football committee meeting. Very rude of them.

Just looking through the contestants (to find out who the hell Myha’la is) and I see there’s not a single sports person. Disappointed

This just popped up on my feed 🤣🤣

Every Thursday & Friday. Last year was Wednesday & Thursday but they’ve obviously got the confidence that it can compete on a Friday night now.

@Davros rumour has it there were a few sports people who had to back out last minute, hence the plethora of comedians!

2.5 hours to go everyone!

So excited for this! Love Maya & Leigh Anne.
I’m hoping it’s an all female traitors team :)

Very much looking forward to this. Love Blunt, not keen on Sheen.

I think it’s a massive time commitment for sports people , and I heard a rumour that some of them had to drop out at the last minute. I agree it is a shame

Place marking to join you all later.

Cannot stand James Acaster or Bella Ramsey. Looking forward to James Blunt and Jerry Hall. I also enjoy Rob and Romesh’s programmes together so hope they’ll be as funny on this.

I can't wait!!

I’d assume it would attract retired sports people like Joe Marler.

Evening all. Looking forward to this! I do enjoy Autumn when all the telly comes back and you can snuggle up warm and watch.

Listening to Joe Marler’s podcast interview with Richard Osman (on his BBC show, not Richard’s TRIE) it turns out Richard Osman recommended him to the Traitors producers after he appeared on House of Games.
