But the drama began before they even arrived as when they were heading to the castle on the train. The 25 players were split into three carriages and each carriage were met with a huge shock when the train stopped suddenly. The train then started moving backwards as Claudia told them each carriage had to pick one person to leave the train and the show.

Jack, Alexander and Fozia eventually volunteered to leave but it remains to be seen if they will later return to the show or if they are actually gone for good.

On Wednesday night the third series kicked off in the Scottish Highlands as the first three Traitors were picked. Later in the show Claudia revealed another huge change to the show as she told the contestants that when people are eliminated they will no longer reveal if they are a Traitor or Faithful.
The show sees several Traitors be picked at the start of the series while the other contestants are Faithfuls. Over the course of the game the Traitors have to convince the rest of the players that they are Faithful in order to try and steal the whole prize pot for themselves at the end.
