The second series of The Celebrity Traitors will feature a moment fans will have "never seen before", according to the BBC's Director of Entertainment Ed Havard.
Speaking at the Edinburgh TV Festival, Havard said: "Things happen that you didn't think could happen on Traitors and have never seen before."
Line-up of 21 famous faces confirmed
Host Claudia Winkleman is returning to the Scottish Highlands for the second run of the hit BBC series. The line-up of 21 famous faces ready to play the ultimate game of deception, back-stabbing and betrayal was confirmed earlier this year, as the Faithful try to sniff out the Traitors working against them.
The full celebrity line-up includes Amol Raja, Bella Ramsey, Hannah Fry, James Acaster, James Blunt, Jerry Hall, Joanne McNally, Joe Lycett, Julie Hesmondhalgh, King Kenny, Leigh-Anne Pinnock, Maya Jama, Michael Sheen, Miranda Hart, Myha'la, Richard E. Grant, Rob Beckett, Romesh Ranganathan, Ross Kemp, Sebastian Croft and Sharon Rooney.
Series one finale success
Over 15.2 million viewers watched the series one finale, which saw Traitor Alan Carr get away with murder. The comedian was crowned the winner in a move that broke the internet and left him in floods of tears.
"It's been tearing me apart, I'm so sorry," Alan howled as he revealed to the remaining faithful Nick Mohammed that he'd been a Traitor from the start of the game.
Social media quickly erupted with the news. "Most awful traitor ever being the best traitor ever," wrote one X user. "There could not have been a more iconic ending," wrote another, while a third called it "the TV moment of the year".
His chosen charity, Neuroblastoma UK, received all the prize money, with the final pot coming to £87,500. "Alan, what a moment. We can't tell you how grateful we are," the charity posted on social media at the time.
It was the highest overnight audience since the Gavin and Stacey finale, which attracted 12.3 million on Christmas Day last year, the BBC said.
The Celebrity Traitors series two is expected to air on BBC One and BBC iPlayer in September.
