The Traitors: The Movie, based on season two, is set to premiere on Friday, March 15, and you can watch it on BBC iPlayer abroad. I know I will!

Suranne Jones, famous for her roles in Doctor Foster and Gentleman Jack, will appear with the iconic black hair and bangs of Claudia Winkleman.

Will the real Claudia Winkleman Please stand up!

From Bridgerton, Jonathan Bailey will take on the role of the cunning Traitor Harry, with David Walliams as his co-conspirator Paul, and Sally Phillips will play Diane, who loves fizzy rosé.

You’ll also see Asim Chaudhry as Jaz, Kiell Smith-Bynoe as Miles, and Iain Stirling as Ross. Catherine Tate will combine the characters of Evie and Charlie into one. Plus, Mollie Pearce, a contestant from the second season, will return to play herself.

I’m so thankful to Comic Relief for making this happen. It’s like I’m in a funny alternate world, and it’s fantastic. Don’t believe me? Check out the trailer here:

This reality game show has been a monumental success for the BBC since its debut in December 2022.
