The Traitors, a TV competition show presented by Claudia Winkleman, had us all hooked at the end of 2022, and now, just weeks after the first series reached its dramatic finale, the US version is about to begin.

Broadcast on the BBC and described by fans as a spin-off of The Hunger Games set in the Scottish Highlands, The Traitors saw 22 strangers collaborate across a series of tasks to win up to £120,000, all while trying to eliminate three traitors nominated by Winkleman.

Both the UK and US versions of The Traitors are set at the same location of Ardross Castle, which can be found in 100 acres of parkland on the River Alness, north of Inverness. Built in the 1700s, the castle isn’t open to the public but can be hired as a corporate event location or wedding venue.

Presented by Scottish actor Alan Cumming of Goldeneye, Eyes Wide Shut and Hamlet fame, The Traitors US arrives in mid-January and is available to watch in the UK.
