Claudia Winkleman reveals new twists ahead of 'bigger and better' return of The Traitors

The Traitors, everyone's favourite game of backstabbing, deceit, lies and sleuthing is back! After a year away, new contestants of all ages and backgrounds are venturing to a castle in the Scottish Highlands all hoping to win a cash prize of £120,000.
As they enter the castle, some of the participants will be chosen as Traitors, whose job it is to secretly “murder” their fellow players without getting caught. The rest of the group are known as the Faithful who will try to suss out who the Traitors are. The Faithful will then attempt to banish Traitors from the game at the thrilling nightly round tables before they become their next victim. If a Traitor remains in the game at the end, then they take all of the prize pot for themselves.
Watching the drama unfold across 12 nail-biting episodes is Claudia Winkleman, who remains very tight-lipped about the upcoming series. “I would love to tell you all about series three, but then I will get fired so I can tell you absolutely nothing,” she laughs. “What I will say is that things are different this year. There are some really exciting things that have changed, which keeps everyone on the toes and feeds into the central premise of trust. I can’t wait for everyone to see.”.
Claudia, 52, has swapped the glamour of Strictly for the Highlands, but she remains a fashion icon, with her jumpers and fingerless gloves a staple of the show. “Expect more knitwear, quite a lot of tweed, and I sleep in fingerless gloves,” Claudia grins as she describes her outfits for the new series. “More big sweaters and at one point I try to look like a yeti. I’ve snuck home a couple of pairs of gloves, but sadly most of it, I have to give it a little kiss while not wearing lipstick, and send it back.”.
