THE TRAITORS: East Midlanders are wanted for the next series of the ultimate game of trust and treachery

The BBC is on the hunt for some deceptive East Midlanders to take part in the next series of smash-hit reality show The Traitors.

In case you haven’t seen it, The Traitors is a competition series that’s built on strategy, suspicion, and deception.

Filmed in the Scottish Highlands, a team of players will compete in a series of missions and the more missions they complete successfully, the bigger the prize pot.  

However, hidden amongst the players are the ‘Traitors’. The Traitors meet in secret and decide who to eliminate from their fellow players known as the ‘Faithful’.

The aim for the Traitors is to stay undetected until the end, the aim for the Faithful is to banish all of the Traitors before the game ends.

Throughout the series, there will be twists, turns, rigorous challenges, shocks and surprises for the players.

Do you reckon you’ve got what it takes to play? If so, the BBC is currently casting for the next series of the popular show, and is calling on people in the East Midlands and across the UK to apply.

Applications are currently open to “fun, smart, and strategic players” who are over 18 years of age and have the right to legally reside in the UK.
