Claudia Winkleman teased the huge line-up for the upcoming Celebrity Traitors series, which is set to return later this year.

In 2025, the hit BBC show welcomed its first celebrity edition, where the likes of Stephen Fry, Paloma Faith and Joe Marler participated.

In a tense finale, Alan Carr, who played as a Traitor the whole game, won £87,500 for his chosen children’s cancer charity, Neuroblastoma.

Fans have been waiting for a new series ever since, and according to host Claudia, it’s going to be bigger and better.

“You’re about to film series 2 of Celebrity Traitors,” Vernon began. “Now, all we wanna know is, are there any big dogs in this one?” he continued.

While being asked the question, Claudia began getting nervous, admitting: “I don’t even want to look at you!’ as she began hiding her face with her hair.

In response, Claudia said: “There certainly are!”

“The people that make it are extraordinary,” she continued before teasing the line-up. “They had to repeat the people twice to me because I was like, ‘Huh? Are you joking? Come again!’ So, we’re incredibly lucky!”

Following the huge success of the first series, Claudia said she is “so grateful” for anyone who wants to play the game.

While trying not to slip up, Claudia admitted she “couldn’t say anything else” for the time being.
