The Traitors returned on Tuesday, December 6, with episode four. The hugely popular gameshow from BBC One hit screens for the first time last week and has had viewers hooked, with many wondering when they can expect the next instalment of episodes.
It comes after BBC bosses made the first three episodes available on iPlayer, but later confirmed the following episodes would air in their scheduled week night slots, which is 9pm on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday nights.
And fans of the nail-biting reality television show, which sees 22 contestants play the ultimate game of detection, backstabbing and trust, are even more eager for the next episode after Tuesday night's show ended on a major cliffhanger. Tensions were running high during the instalment which saw the three traitors put Alex, Ivan and John on trial.

During an emotional roundtable discussion, the contestants voted mainly for Alex and Ivan to be banished, but with only Welsh contestant Amanda left to make her decision, the end credits rolled leaving viewers at home wondering who had been voted off.
One tweeted: "The Traitors pulling that cliffhanger at the end of the episode… I’m sorry but I’m not here for this. I’m not watching ITV. I need a satisfying conclusion to each episode like on Survivor."
Another added: "How very dare you leave us on an elimination cliffhanger. It looks like they still haven’t caught a traitor." And a third said: "Wow.. I mean cliffhanger or what! #TheTraitors bring on episode 5 already!!"
Taking to Instagram following the epic cliffhanger and questions around the next episode, Claudia wrote on Instagram: "Thank you for watching. We’re back on tomorrow at 9.
