BBC The Traitors confirmed for second series following 'no-brainer' decision

BBC The Traitors will be returning to our screens for a second series next year following what TV bosses have called a 'no-brainer' decision.

The reality programme, which is set in the Scottish Highlands, has been a big hitter and now a deal has been struck with production company Studio Lambert to bring the game show back for another run next year.

But it's not been confirmed when in 2023 it'll return.

An insider told the Daily Star: "The Traitors has become a big hit after just a few weeks. It was a no-brainer to commission another series.

"Everyone is hoping it will be even more popular by next year and become one of the biggest shows on TV.” Claudia Winkleman is expected to return as host.

The source added: "Claudia absolutely loves the show and thinks it’s a brilliant format. It’s basically a done deal that she’ll be back."

We recently told you that the show is also going to America, and will be hosted by Alan Cumming.

The USA series will include Big Brother winner Rachel Reilly and The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' Brandi Glanville.
