We have a new reality show starting on BBC1 Tues night called The Traitors which looks quite interesting. I will definitely give it a try. I notice they are starting it just as I'm a Celeb..... has ended. šŸ˜‰

Claudia Winkelman is hosting which should be fun.

I'll give it a try but I'm not that keen on Claudia W so I'll see how it goes.

Charleygirl5 Mon 28-Nov-22 14:46:08

I also will watch it- I also cannot stand Claudia but I doubt there is little else on.

MerylStreep Mon 28-Nov-22 14:56:08

In the rare event that you might read this, Claudia, I love you.

I try not to let the presenter(s) put me off a programme. Not really keen on Ant and Dec because they are such a well-oiled machine it becomes rather predictive. CW's fringe and make-up drives me nuts but I am prepared to look the other way.

Claudia is hilarious. She always cheers me up.

PinkCosmos Mon 28-Nov-22 15:35:48

At least the competitors are ordinary people and not 'celebrities'.

I'm not a massive fan of CW but quite fancy this programme.

I hope it isn't too dumbed down

In the trailers, Claudiaā€™s fringe hanging in her eyes annoyed me. Wish she would get it trimmed a bit shorter.

Donā€™t think I shall watch it.

Unlike a previous poster, if I don't like a presenter I can't watch a programme. And I really cannot bear Claudia Winkleman, so won't be watching this. Thank heaven for i-player ...

I wonder why sheā€™s such a marmite character I donā€™t mind her at all CW I mean of course I wouldnā€™t say I love her but sheā€™s ok
I didnā€™t like the Irish comedian I say with a very small c that did the pottery programme but it didnā€™t stop me enjoying the show itself

Calendargirl - I think CW has had her fringe trimmed ā€¦

I love Claudia, she really makes me laugh.

Doodledog Tue 29-Nov-22 21:56:51

I'm enjoying it so far.

I'm not 100% sure what the rules are, but it looks promising. I was shocked at the shocking thing, too grin

Consider myself to be reasonably bright but have absolutely no idea how this show works. Someone is about to be ā€˜murderedā€™, never to be seen again. No explanation as to how thatā€™s going to happen!

Zoejory Tue 29-Nov-22 22:27:28

I love Claudia. I love her fringe and her boots and her voice. Also sense of humour. Just about everything.

Doodledog Tue 29-Nov-22 22:31:39

They are voted off by the traitors and are told overnight, so they just don't appear the next morning at breakfast.

tanith Tue 29-Nov-22 22:41:12

Interesting so far, canā€™t wait to see whoā€™s gone in the morning.

Doodledog Tue 29-Nov-22 22:45:01

There are three episodes up on iPlayer grin.

I'm watching, but will say nothing until they've aired.

Chestnut Tue 29-Nov-22 23:47:12

I loved it! Although I skipped most of the challenge as I've had enough of them lately. I love the secrecy aspect, the castle and the way Claudia creeps around in the shadows. She is so well suited to that role with her black eye make-up, ha ha. She's like a sinister, ruthless Morticia Addams character and she's very good at it.

Doodledog Tue 29-Nov-22 23:49:26

I'm on episode 3 now, and it gets better as it goes along.

There are only 3 on iPlayer, so I don't know what happens at the end of this one. Is it on next week?

Chestnut Tue 29-Nov-22 23:51:57

It's on every night like I'm a celeb.... so I don't know why they have put three online already. It would be better to put them up each night as we go along and keep people guessing.

Doodledog Tue 29-Nov-22 23:55:54

I hope they put another 3 up tomorrow. I'm really enjoying it, and I'm a night owl, so like something undemanding to watch in the small hours.

Looking forward to it but canā€™t stand Claudia. Sorry Claudia.
