Claudia Winkleman is to return to front a second series of The Traitors
The BBC has confirmed Claudia Winkleman will be back to front the nail-biting psychological reality competition, which sees 22 strangers play a game of detection, backstabbing and trust in a bid to win £120,000.
She said: "I can’t wait to go back to the castle to watch people play the greatest game on television.
"I’m knitting a high funnel sweater immediately."
In series one - which was filmed at a Scottish castle, and has been watched 34 million times on BBC iPlayer - three Faithfuls, Aaron, Hannah and Meryl, outsmarted the Traitors and took home a third each of the £101,050 prize pot.
Kalpna Patel-Knight, Head of Entertainment at the BBC, said: “Last year’s ambitious and bingeable hit 'The Traitors' with Claudia Winkleman is coming back with the brilliant team at Studio Lambert set to bring viewers another magnificent series full of drama and suspense.
"We can certainly expect even more deceit and psychological games for the Traitors and Faithfuls."
Stephen Lambert, CEO of Studio Lambert, added: "We were delighted so many viewers of BBC One and BBC iPlayer loved the first season.
"They told us they enjoyed the drama and entertainment of watching our players judge each other, often leaping to false conclusions, but also forming alliances and real friendships.
"We’re excited to be making a second season with Claudia as together we build on the success of the first."
The BBC is currently looking for applicants to appear in the second series of the show.
