What is the latest buzz around The Traitors season 3?
In an interview with Glamour back in November, 2023, Stephen Lambert, CEO of Studio Lambert, the production company behind the show for BBC One and BBC iPlayer, said:
"We’re delighted a third series of The Traitors has been confirmed today ahead of the second series’ arrival on BBC One and BBC iPlayer. The Traitors has been so warmly received by viewers, critics and award juries alike. Claudia and the team look forward to keeping audiences on the edge of their seats again with ever more thrilling missions and exceptional players competing in this gripping game of bluff and skill."
Although BBC is yet to release the potential release date as well as the plot for the upcoming season, fans of the show can probably expect the third season to hit their screens sometime in the first half of 2025, given the fact that the casting is still underway and there isn't any news about the beginning of production.
What happened on The Traitors season 2 finale on BBC?
In the grand finale of The Traitors season 2, the identities of the remaining Traitors were finally disclosed to the Faithful, and the winner was declared.
According to ScreenRant, following weeks of treachery and backstabbing throughout the game, the season 2 finale had a lot of work to accomplish in a short period of time.
Many fans were eager to witness the conclusion and find out who would win the prize money because the show had left them wondering if Traitors Harry Clark and Andrew Jenkins would be eliminated from the game or if they could finish together.
At the start of the episode, Harry and Andrew were the only two Traitors left, with Evie Morrison, Jaz Singh, and Mollie Pearce still playing as Faithful.
Harry appeared to be the clear winner of the match with reasonably good odds, but many weren't sure if he could pull it off.
As the show progressed, it appeared probable that Harry would finally be out of luck because some of the Faithful were growing increasingly doubtful.
Mollie, the only remaining Faithful, was incredibly conflicted over the outcome of the vote between Jaz and Harry. Despite her disbelief, she wasn't as surprised to learn that Andrew was a traitor because he had been implicated at other round tables previously, as per ScreenRant.
Mollie found it difficult to choose between Jaz and Harry because she had been wary of Jaz and had trusted Harry the entire time. In the end, Mollie was shocked to learn that Harry was a traitor.
