The Traitors Australia | Preview (BBC Three)

Remaining Faithful to the worldwide psychological TV phenomenon, the BBC confirms that The Traitors will be back this summer, and this time the action takes place in Australia.

The Traitors Australia has been acquired by the BBC and is another series of the deliciously dangerous game that will this time see a group of contestants arrive at a historic luxury hotel in the Southern Highlands as Faithful contestants – hoping to share a prize fund worth up to A$250,000.

Amongst them are the Traitors – a group of four contestants selected by host Rodger Corser on the first day, whose goal is to eliminate the Faithfuls and claim the prize for themselves.

For those who are new to The Traitors, it is a psychological reality game show centred around tactics, betrayal, suspicion and manipulation. Should the Faithful contestants eliminate all the Traitors, they will share the prize fund. If a Traitor makes it to the end, they steal the money.

Welcome to a most deliciously, dangerous game of lies, deception and betrayal. Do the Faithfuls have what it takes, to eliminate the Traitors? Or will the skulduggery of the Traitors see the Faithfuls eliminate one of their own?

Nasfim Haque, Head of Content at BBC Three says: “The Traitors is an addictively fiendish format and I am so pleased that viewers can get their summer fix of treachery and suspicion as we head Down Under for the Australian version of the show on BBC Three and iPlayer.”

The Traitors Australia will start on BBC Three at 8pm on Sunday 9th July and all 12 episodes will be available as a boxset on BBC iPlayer at 6am the same day.
