The subsequent suspense is so well engineered that when the episode ends just as the fourth traitor is about to lift their hood, I let out an involuntary yelp of frustration. Let’s add it to the catalogue of small, strange sounds – from Winkleman’s gasp to the hiss of thousands of gleeful hands rubbing together – that heralds a new entry in the canon of truly great reality TV.

So far, so good. It seems like The Traitors still has all the things you liked before. .... The show must be a living panic attack to participate in, but it’s so, so much fun to watch. Read full review

So far, The Traitors is pretty much the same game. And that’s certainly no bad thing. The BBC knows they have a hit on their hands, and it would be very stupid indeed to mess with the formula too much. Whether this second series will live up to the first all depends on how the game is played. With a cast of intriguing characters, more twists and Claudia Winkleman’s magic touch, I have faith.

It’s a winning formula, and this is a show that builds excitement with each episode. The first three episodes are available on iPlayer, and by the end we’ve had it all: ruthless backstabbing, paranoia and a decent twist (some of the competitors are more than they seem). Winkleman is great, playing along but never taking it too seriously. Read full review

Apart from minor tweaks, it looks like business as usual. .... I do love this ridiculous show. Read full review

The Times Carol Midgley

Feb 14, 2024

The obvious snag for a second series of The Traitors is that the new contestants have seen the first one, and thus are more schooled in how to be duplicitous snakes plotting to stab a colleague in the back while smiling into their face. (Why on earth didn't they set it in Westminster?) The question is, will a sequel of the series nicknamed the Highland Hunger Games be weaker because the wannabes know too much? At this stage, frankly, it's hard to tell. Read full review
