Celebrity Traitors – dubbed the TV moment of the year – is hotting up nicely, with the Traitors feeling the pressure from the Faithfuls.
The BBC reality series, which has now had three civilian seasons since starting in 2022, features a batch of famous-faced contestants competing for a massive cash prize.
Players build up a cash pot after completing gruelling tasks while a group of Traitors hide among the Faithfuls, aiming to trick and even ‘murder’ their way to the prize.
This being the celebrity version, the cash pot is for charity and some of the famous faces are even friends in the real world, but that hasn’t stopped the betrayals and subterfuge.
After the third episode ended on an almighty cliffhanger on Wednesday, the halfway point has almost been reached – that means the finale isn’t far away.
Find out when the BBC will be broadcasting the Celebrity Traitors finale, how many episodes there will be in total, and discover who’s already left the competition.

A description teases: ‘The celebrities have been playing for the chance to win up to £100,000… but will the Faithful banish all of the Traitors to secure victory, or will the Traitors manage to deceive until the bitter end?’
Only 19 contestants entered the Celebrity Traitors – three fewer than the 22 that start each civilian series – which means that this version of the show will be shorter.
The finale of Celebrity Traitors will be just the ninth episode of the series, while all three seasons of the civilian versions of the show have produced 12 each.
What can we expect from the Celebrity Traitors finale?
The BBC has promised that the Celebrity Traitors finale will be 70 minutes in length, which is an extra 10 minutes longer than the previous eight episodes.
And after the finale, fans will be treated to an extra special extended episode of The Celebrity Traitors: Uncloaked across both BBC Two and BBC Sounds.
Host Ed Gamble will be joined by the all-star cast, the finalists, and series presenter Claudia Winkleman, as they recover from the events of the finale and get everything off their chest.
Who’s left the Celebrity Traitors so far?
Paloma Faith was the first big name to be removed from the show after being murdered by the Traitors.
Afterwards, YouTuber star Niko Omilana was next to join Paloma, having been mistakenly banished by the Faithfuls despite being one himself.
In episode three, the Traitors quickly set about ticking more Faithfuls off the list, murdering Olympic gold medalist Tom Daley overnight after he started getting suspicious.
And during a dramatic roundtable at the end of the third episode, EastEnders actress Tameka Empson was banished after being mistaken for a Traitor by her fellow Faithfuls.
Tonight, we will at least find out who the fifth contestant will be to exit the show, while the conclusion of the roundtable may be left until the fifth episode on October 22.
Episodes six and seven will be broadcast on October 29 and October 30, while, as we now know, the ninth and final episode will be broadcast a week later on November 6.
Watch The Celebrity Traitors on BBC One, 9pm on Wednesdays and Thursdays.
