Episode two of Claudia Winkleman's brand new game show, The Traitors, aired on BBC One on Wednesday, November 30, and the show has viewers absolutely hooked, with many commenting on how the three Traitors chosen out of the 20 remaining contestants are playing the game excellently, having gone undetected since being chosen by the Strictly Come Dancing co-host in the first episode.
The series sees 22 contestants (which soon became 20 after a shock elimination at the start of the launch episode) headed to a castle in the Scottish Highlands for a game of deception and discovery, where £120,000 is up for grabs. Described as a "nail-biting psychological competition," the contestants must work as a team to complete physical and mental missions. However, there's a huge twist as hidden among the group are some Traitors.
While the viewers know who the Traitors are - Alyssa, Amanda and Wilfred - the rest of the contestants don't. The Traitors' role is to 'murder' one of their fellow players each and every night while remaining undetected - their first victim became 23-year-old masters' graduate Aisha, revealed on tonight's show. The others, who are called the Faithfuls, must work out who is betraying them and get them banished from the game.
