The final line up of this year’s Celebrity Traitors is here and viewers are set to be treated to a mix of A-listers, TV stars and singing sensations.
A total of 19 celebs will play the ultimate cat and mouse game of backstabbing and knowing who to trust - in the hopes of bagging £100,000 for a charity of their choice.
Host Claudia Winkleman is back for the show, with the BBC finally revealing the full line up.
She said: “We’re incredibly lucky these brilliant people have said yes.”
For those who haven’t dipped a toe in before, the premise of the show is pleasingly simple. The group will descend upon a remote castle in the Scottish Highlands, cut off from society.
One or two of the contestants are Traitors, tasked with ‘murdering’ their fellow contestants each night. The rest are Faithfuls, who have the power to ‘banish’ those they think are guilty.
But who are the stars taking part? See the full line up below:
Stephen Fry
Stephen Fry is one of the biggest names in UK showbiz: an author, a presenter on the show QI and an actor – among other things.
The Sun reported how the star “jumped” at the chance to be on the show, as he is a secret superfan.
A source said: “Claudia (Winkleman) put Stephen right at the top of celebs she’d want on The Traitors and Stephen has made it clear he’d be game.
“Stephen is a fan of the show and Claudia was desperate for him to be in it.
Alan Carr
The chatty man himself has never taken part in a reality TV show before – but that’s about to change.
“Bosses are thrilled at the kind of scenes that could play out as he grapples with the more sensible names on the line-up as well as him giggling away with pals,” a source told the Sun when his name was announced.
Tom Daley
The Olympian diver is an odd choice for the show, especially when you consider he’s not taken part in any reality TV shows before. Having turned down Strictly Come Dancing and I’m A Celebrity, he will nevertheless be arriving in Inverness for two weeks of drama.
Joe Marler
Joe Marler is one of English rugby’s most famous names: he won the Six Nations three times with England. And according to insiders, he’s also keen to prove that he’s more than a sportsperson.
Nick Mohammed
Eagle-eyed viewers will recognise Mohammed from the Apple TV+ show Ted Lasso, where he played Nate Shelley.
David Olusoga
Olusoga is a historian and TV presenter, who has fronted countless documentaries and written tens of history books. In 2019, he was awarded an OBE – and most recently, he worked on Disney+ show A Thousand Blows as an executive producer and historical advisor.
Niko Omilana
Beta Squad star and YouTube prankster Niko Omilana ran for Parliament as an independent in last year’s general election – and ran in the London Mayoral Election in 2021, winning 2 per cent of the vote.
"We did it for the vibes and we've engaged young people,” he said at the time. “We've shown that young people need to be represented."
Mark Bonnar
Mark Bonnar played DCC Mike Dryden in the hit BBC show Line of Duty – as well as making appearances in Shetland and Guilt.
Jonathan Ross
A name that’s been floating around for a while. An ITV talk show host and broadcaster, this is Ross’s first return to the BBC in 14 years after he stepped down from his Radio 2 show.
Clare Balding
Another person who’s taking the reality TV plunge: BBC sports presenter Clare Balding turned down all other offers before this one.
Insiders told the Sun that the signing was genius: “No one really believes that the Beeb’s dependable, sensible face of sport could be a treacherous liar”.
Cat Burns
One of three musicians on the show – Burns is a Brit Award nominated singer and Traitors super-fan, who often posts about it on TikTok.
Paloma Faith
Yep, pop star Paloma Faith will also be taking part. Like many other cast members, she’s never appeared on reality TV before, but it seems like the lure of The Traitors was too strong.
Celia Imrie
Another surprise signing: Imrie, of course, has appeared in countless TV shows and films throughout the years, including Bridget Jones’s Diary, Mamma Mia and Calendar Girls. Apparently, she’s also very keen to get stuck in.
Charlotte Church
Classically trained singer Charlotte Church shot to fame as a teenager, before stepping back out of the spotlight to open a wellness retreat in Wales. Now, she’s heading into the world of reality TV.
Kate Garraway
Good Morning Britain host Garraway has had a very tough few years. In 2024, she appeared in a documentary about her husband, Derek Draper, who suffered from long Covid. Garraway was his carer until he died last year.
Lucy Beaumont
Lucy Beaumont is another comedian. Previously married to Jon Richardson – with whom she appeared in several shows – she’s now striking out solo.
Tameka Empson
Tameka is best known for playing Kim Fox in the soap EastEnders – and will presumably be putting her acting skills to use to ace the competition here.
Joe Wilkinson
Joe Wilkinson is a veteran of the British comedy circuit. He’s appeared on 8 Out of 10 Cats, Have I Got News for You and Prime Video series Last One Laughing – and also happens to be friends with Paul Gorton, one of the Traitors from season two.
Ruth Codd
Codd is an Irish actor who first broke through as Anya in the Netflix thriller The Midnight Club, back in 2022. She worked as a make up artist and barber before becoming a TikTok star, and she’ll be making her film this summer in the live-action remake of How To Train Your Dragon.
