The Celebrity Traitors has wrapped filming Series 2, and insiders have teased how the game unfolded behind the castle walls.
Speaking to The Sun, a source claimed producers were “quite shocked” by the approach taken by the core Traitors this time around.
“A Recruiting Spree”
“They went on a recruiting spree that has never been seen on either the celebrity or the ‘civilian’ version of the show in the UK,” the insider revealed.

In Series 1, Traitors Alan Carr, Jonathan Ross, and Cat Burns steered clear of bringing anyone new into the Turret throughout the game.
In Series 2, however, the Traitors reportedly went in the exact opposite direction.
“Even though the whole programme is based on skullduggery, nobody thought it would reach these levels,” the source added.
