The Traitors took the nation by storm as it combined an Agatha Christie-style murder mystery with a huge cash prize. Its run on TV has come to an end, but if you are looking for more lies, deception and psychological manipulation, there is a Netflix series that could be just what you need.
Hosted by Claudia Winkleman, The Traitors followed 22 contestants as they headed to a castle in the Scottish Highlands to battle it out for £120,000. Planted among them were three traitors who ‘murdered’ the remaining faithfuls by night and lied at the round table in an attempt to appear innocent and avoid being ‘banished’. To get the cash prize, contestants needed to work out which members of the group were the traitors.
Now the compelling BBC game show has come to an end, fans can turn their attention to The Mole on Netflix, a show that sees 12 players work together in a series of challenges with the goal of adding money to a prize pot which only one of them can win. But, there is one secret ‘Mole’ planted within the group tasked with sabotaging the group’s challenges and their chances of winning the cash prize.
