ABOUT THE SERIES

"The Traitors" is a brand-new hit social experiment from the Netherlands. The series is a nail-biting psychological adventure in which treachery and deceit are the name of the game. Twenty contestants come together to complete a series of challenges with the objective of earning a cash prize. The catch? A number of the contestants coined "The Traitors" will meet in secret to devise a plan to eliminate their fellow players coined "The Faithful". "The Faithful" must figure out who is a Traitor and vote them out so they can take the prize money for themselves. If a Traitor makes it to the end, they are in with a chance of taking home the cash prize.

Host: Alan Cumming

Executive Producers: Stephen Lambert, Mike Cotton, Toni Ireland, Jack Burgess and Sam Rees Jones
