BBC confirms second series of The Traitors - and is asking for people to take part

The BBC has confirmed The Traitors will return, with a second series on the way.

The announcement was made in a video posted to the BBC's Twitter account on Monday (February 27), which sees Claudia Winkleman reprise her role as presenter. Wearing the famous black hooded cloak, Claudia invites viewers to play, asking: "Can you spot a liar? Can you betray those around you? How would you fare at the Round Table? What I'm asking is, would you like to play?"

The Traitors became one of the broadcaster's biggest hits, drawing in over 34 million viewers at the end of last year. Set in the Scottish Highlands, the show has been described as a nail-biting psychological reality competition where 22 strangers play the ultimate game of detection, backstabbing and trust, in the hope of winning up to £120,000.
