-Catch Up On-
The Traitors US, BBC iPlayer
If you’ve watched the UK version of this twisted gameshow, you’ll love this US take. A mix of famous faces and everyday contestants play the ultimate murder mystery game, to build a prize fund worth up to $250,000. It’s hosted by award-winning actor Alan Cumming at the same ancient Scottish castle which was used in the UK series. We managed to binge-watch this series in a day (but it did take more than 10 hours!). We’re eagerly awaiting the arrival of the Australia series in the UK (come on BBC!?).
