Ruth Codd, a contestant on the BBC's Celebrity Traitors, has disclosed that producers enforce a strict two-drink limit per night for cast members, preventing them from getting drunk. The 29-year-old actress, known for Netflix's The Midnight Club, told the Sunday Times: 'They're very strict on alcohol. It's not boozy at all. You're allowed two drinks at night.'
Codd also revealed she felt at a 'disadvantage' because many of the other celebrities already knew each other. 'There was probably an unspoken hierarchy in there, and that placed certain people like myself at a disadvantage because I haven't been in the industry very long,' she said.
Despite this, Codd formed close bonds with Clare Balding, Charlotte Church, and Celia (likely Celia Imrie), describing them as 'amazing' and saying they made the experience for her. She noted that the round table scenes taught her to 'stand her ground' and be assertive.
Codd correctly suspected Jonathan Ross was a Traitor, leading to her murder by Ross, Alan Carr, and Cat Burns. The first episode of Celebrity Traitors has drawn over 11.7 million viewers, making it the biggest unscripted series debut in the UK since 2022, excluding special events.
The series concludes on Thursday, November 6, at 9pm on BBC One and iPlayer, with a 70-minute episode.
