Why isn’t The Traitors on iPlayer and when is it next on TV?

Here’s when to watch The Traitors on TV and online this week as the hit reality game show continues on the BBC.

In this gripping psychological reality contest, Claudia Winkleman welcomes 22 contestants to a stunning castle in the Scottish Highlands for the ultimate test of detection, deceit, and trust, with a prize of up to £120,000 at stake.

Among them are The Traitors, tasked with covertly eliminating a contestant each night without being discovered. The task for the rest, known as the Faithfuls, is to identify and expel the traitors from the game before they fall victim to them.

For those who make it to the finale, a life-altering cash prize awaits. However, if a Traitor evades detection, they will seize the entire prize fund.

The Traitors TV schedule

Series two of The Traitors continues this week on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday nights at 9PM on BBC One.

Unlike in the first week, there won’t be an early release on BBC iPlayer. Each episode will only be available to stream once it airs on TV.

You can currently catch up on past episodes via BBC iPlayer now.

Meanwhile, new spin-off show The Traitors: Uncloaked will air at 10PM on BBC Two after each episode of the main show BBC One.

When is The Traitors final?

The show has 12 episodes meaning it’ll run for the four weeks, placing the final on Friday, 26 January 2024.
