When is Celebrity Traitors on TV?

The BBC confirmed recently that Celebrity Traitors will air this autumn, with a date not yet confirmed.

The news of the Celebrity Traitors' air date was announced in the BBC's annual plan: "The ultimate reality game of trust and treachery returns with the first ever Celebrity Traitors edition this autumn alongside a new series in early 2026."

The series will feature nine episodes, slightly shorter than the 12 that have been in the three series of the normal Traitors show.

The Traitors debuted in 2022 and has since picked up a Bafta TV Award for Best Reality and Constructed Factual programme as well as a Broadcasting Press Guild Award for Best Entertainment Programme.

The third and most recent series earlier this year saw project manager Jake Brown and former soldier Leanne Quigley share the prize pot of £94,600.
