The Traitors new series line up has been revealed as show makes incredible return
The Traitors is about to start up again and soon, you’ll see the below contestants battling it out to win a cash prize.
That’s right. You’re going to be treated to another round of Claudia Winkleman tonight at 8pm on BBC One - and it comes with a whole new line up.
This large group of strangers will arrive in the Scottish Highlands in the hopes of winning £120,000.
Advert
However, be warned, there are Traitors hidden among them with a job to murder the players without getting caught in the act.
To counter this, the Faithful try to find out who is betraying the group, before it’s too late.
It’s just so juicy!
But it’ll be even better now that we know exactly who’s going to be taking their chances tonight on the show.
Who are the new contestants in The Traitors series 3?
Alex
Alex, 29, is a care manager from Whitby, who believes that he has been chronically underestimated - which could all change on the show.
He said: "I observe a lot, I'm quite good at cataloguing things. I might appear to be just having fun, but I am taking everything in."
Alexander
Alexander, 38, is a former British Diplomat from London who has travelled the world while he worked with victims of attacks and natural disasters.
He said: "A diplomat is meant to win people over and be good at influencing and negotiating!"
Anna
Anna, 28 is a swimming teacher from County Wicklow, Ireland, who believes she is ‘pretty good a spotting a liar.’
With the prize money, she’ll open a 'sustainable fashion line that's slightly more affordable for young women'.
Armani
Armani, 27, is a financial investigator from London who is planning on ‘planting seeds’.
She said: "Day to day and in my job, I try to see whether someone has done something wrong, and I try to investigate it and discover what needs to be put right.
"I like to help people, I like to do things in a team, I've always been that way inclined."
Charlotte
Charlotte, 33, is a business director from London who has a ‘terrible poker face’.
But be warned as she's 'not afraid to go against someone and vote for them just because they are a friend'.
Dan
Dan, 33, is a bank risk manger from Liverpool who thinks he’s going to be stellar at the missions as he loves ‘puzzles and problem solving.’
He shared: "My ultimate game plan is to make sure I've got enough people in the game that have my best interests at heart, no matter what side of the fence they’re on."
Elen
Elen, 24, is a translator from Cardiff, Wales, who looks up to series one Traitor, Amanda.
She said: "She embraced her background and where she came from. A grandmother and a mother, just a very ordinary person from South Wales, and no one suspected her."
Elen notes that she can be 'very competitive, very strategic, I can be manipulative'.
Fozia
Fozia, 50, is a community development manager from Birmingham who is in it to win it.
She’s going to 'be strategic about it because you can't trust anyone. I am going to be careful about what I share and don't share'.
"And normally I can smell a rat." she adds.
Francesca
Francesca, 44, is a interior designer from East Sussex who wants to show her four sons that ‘anything is possible.’
She shared: "I think sometimes people think I'm a ditzy blonde, and that I just make things look pretty. But what I do involves a lot of engineering and architecture.
"Sometimes people assume I’m one thing but actually there are different layers, and I like to surprise people."
Freddie
Freddie, 20, is a politics student from Peterborough who was UK’s number one in the athletic sprint hurdles from 14 to 17.
He said he’s 'very competitive with a driven mindset' but hopes there’s no 'roller coasters or jumping out of a plane'.
Jack
Jack, 24, is a market trader and landscaper from Yorkshire whose mum got him to apply.
He also secretly trained as an actor which will help him to 'play it a little bit dumb, maybe act like the ditzy gardener and landscaper who secretly has his own agenda, and hopefully a couple of acting skills to back that up'.
Jake
Jake, 28, is a project manager from Barrow-in-Furness who is prepared to do what it takes to get the cash prize.
He said: "I've always been into mysteries, even when I was younger in my Scooby Doo days, I've always liked the guess who’s the murderer game so this show is the perfect kind of game for me."
Joe
Joe, 37, is an English teacher from Southampton who is meticulous at planning thanks to his job.
He said: "Because I'm a teacher, my life is based around planning. I have to plan for every moment, every possible question, everything that could go wrong.
"So, I think I'm already going to be in that mode, and I think it will be helpful. I think I'll be more tactical with things. I think I'll read between the lines, I won't listen to just what's being said, I'll think about what's no being said."
Kasim
Kasim, 33, is a doctor from Cambridge, and is a ‘happy go lucky, bubbly person’.
But not when it comes to this game, as he warned: "When I get competitive, a very different side of me comes out. I can be quite ruthless, cunning and tactical. Generally, if I'm playing things like board games, I will absolutely stab you in the back to get what I want."
Keith
Keith, 66, is a window cleaner from Bournemouth who has a black belt in Taekwondo.
He revealed: "I'm one of nine in my family. I've got a very big family, lots of brothers and sisters who used to play tricks on each other, wind each other up, the works!
"So, with all that in mind, that’s why I applied for The Traitors."
Leanne
Leanne, 28, is a veteran from Holywell, North Wales who was in the army for 12 years.
She plans to tell people she’s a nail technician 'because people are automatically going to assume anyone in the military is smart and strategic'.
Leon
Leon, 40, is a retail shop manager from the East Midlands who wants to be a Traitor - interesting.
He said: "I think I'm quite charismatic. I'm a Gemini, so I can be like a smiling assassin!
"I want to be a Traitor, but I think the perfect experience in this game would probably be to be a Faithful and then be recruited and turned into a Traitor - because then you're getting both sides."
Linda
Linda, 70, is a retired opera singer from Hertfordshire who likes the idea of ‘fooling people’ and when there’s cash up for grabs, she can be ‘ruthless’.
Because of her age, she thinks she has ‘more experience and quite good at convincing people of things that aren't true!’
Lisa
Lisa, 62, is an Anglican Priest from Cornwall who shared of her journey on the show.
She said: "It doesn't exactly speak of the values that we uphold as a priest. But this is a game."
Olivia (Livi)
Olivia, 26, is a beautician and model from Horsham who wants to be a Faithful.
She said: "I've always sussed people out in my life and if somebody has lied to me, I've known straight away. I think I'm a good people reader."
Maia
Maia, 25, is a full-time mum from Essex with a dream of being a Traitor, who says her ‘game plan is to act dumb, but not too dumb’ as ‘if you’re too dumb they're wondering what's the purpose of you being here!’
She added: "Normally I'm not selfish when it comes to these things, but when it comes to providing for my family, nothing will come between that."
Minah
Minah, 29, is a call center manager from Liverpool who is ‘very rarely wrong about people.’
She said: "I’m naturally very competitive and because I always want to win, I’d do anything. But I also like to be honest with people and I think I’d struggle betraying people I’d become close to."
Nathan
Nathan, 39, is a property consultant from London who wants to have fun.
He said: “I've got to be quite strategic, but I think I will be planting a lot of seeds and spreading a bit of gossip because I quite enjoy it.
"I just think it's fun. I'd rather go out with a bang and be the guy that was planting seeds and just causing havoc."
Tyler
Tyler, 29, is a barber from Leicester who wants to use the money to buy his own barbershop.
He said: "I think my job sets me up well. Every day I'm gaining trust as I cut people's hair. I feel like I can adapt to any situation.
"I can gain people's trust quite easily."
Yin
Yin, 34, is a doctor of communication from Berkshire who said her speciality is in the art and science of persuasive communication.
She warned: "I'm always analysing, it's not just words, it's the tone, it's body language, it's also what's not being said, what's not being done and actions over time, how they match with the words.
“There's all of this stuff around it that I notice that I don't think a lot of people pay attention to."
The Traitors is available from 9pm on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.
