Never mind a 'parting gift, the BBC are giving fans of The Traitors the est present to start the year with as they have confirmed that the American version of the hit show will launch on iPlayer in its entirety this weekend.
Rewind to two months ago and nobody, other than the cast and crew involved, had even heard of The Traitors, but that all changed when the BBC decided to launch the programme, with little fanfare right in the middle of the World Cup. After its first few episodes aired the buzz around the UK series of The Traitors went from being a little murmur to being one of the top trends on Twitter, as it became the word of mouth TV success of 2022.
The premise of the much talked about show is that members of the public work together to win a big cash prize, with the massive catch being that some of them were chosen to be Traitors on the first day of filming, tasked with 'murdering' their rivals, the Faithfuls on a near daily basis, with a viewing to stealing all the cash for themselves.
The final was one of the much watched shows on T Vin the run up to Christmas with last minute Traitor Kieran exposing Wilf as his 'parting gift' in an instantly iconic scene, before a final twist involving colour changing flames as the winners were revealed.
And now, for those who have a traitors shaped void in their life, the BBC is coming to the rescue by putting every episode of The Traitors US on iPlayer as a boxset from Friday, January 13.
in a tweet which was quickly shared hundreds of time, BBC Press posted: "O come all ye Faithfuls... this is NOT a drill The Traitors US is coming to @BBCiPlayer tomorrow, Friday 13 January! And you'll be able to watch on @bbcthree and @BBCOne very soon too...
The Traitors US will be hosted by well known actor and comic Alan Cumming and will feature a cast of members of the public and American celebs like Real Housewives of Beverley Hills star Brandi Glanville.
