The highly anticipated Celebrity Traitors exploded onto our screens with all the drama and betrayal viewers have come to expect, as Jonathan Ross immediately found himself in hot water with his famous competitors.
In the opening episode filmed at a remote Scottish castle, the talk show host's controversial voting decision created immediate tension among the celebrity contestants, setting the stage for a brutal game of deception and alliance.
First Celebrity Casualty
The premiere episode saw the first celebrity banished from the game, with former Coronation Street actress Sonja becoming the initial victim of the group's suspicions. Despite her protests of innocence, the group collectively decided she must be a Traitor, only to discover they'd eliminated a faithful player.
The dramatic revelation left the remaining celebrities questioning their judgment and trust in one another, with Ross's voting pattern drawing particular scrutiny from his fellow players.
Castle Tensions Mount
Set against the atmospheric backdrop of a Scottish castle in Aberdeenshire, the celebrity version maintains the same high-stakes format that made the original series a national obsession. The famous faces must work together to identify the Traitors among them while completing challenging missions to build the prize fund.
This star-studded edition features an impressive lineup including Diane Abbott, John Bercow, Amos, Chris McCausland, and Ash, all navigating the psychological minefield of the game.
Mission Success Despite Drama
Despite the internal conflicts and suspicions, the celebrity contestants managed to successfully complete their first mission, adding £3,000 to the prize pot. The achievement provided little comfort to the rattled Faithfuls, who now face the daunting task of identifying the actual Traitors before more of them are picked off.
The explosive start to the celebrity edition promises even more high-stakes drama and betrayal in the episodes to come, as the famous contestants learn that in the world of Traitors, no one can be trusted - regardless of their celebrity status.
