Celebrity Traitors cast land in Scotland as filming for hit BBC show begins (2025)

The cast of Celebrity Traitors have landed in Scotland to commence filming for the BBC programme.

Celebrities such as Tom Daley, Jonathan Ross, Paloma Faith and Alan Carr were spotted at Inverness Airport, en-route to the renowned Traitors castle. Here, they will engage in covert tasks and strategising to determine who among them are the Faithfuls or Traitors.

Earlier this week, photographs emerged of the cast arriving in Scotland to participate in the show.

Those captured on camera included Tom, Jonathan, Paloma, Alan, Charlotte Church, Stephen Fry and David Olusoga. However, these aren't the only big names associated with the show.

The complete line-up for the programme was unveiled this week, although stars like Stephen and Alan had been speculated since last year.

Celebrity Traitors marks comedian Alan's debut in reality television, despite his long-standing career in the industry.

Likewise, Olympic diver Tom has declined offers from other major shows like Strictly Come Dancing and I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!, choosing Celebrity Traitors instead.

The same goes for singer Paloma, who has yet to venture into reality TV. It's believed she hopes the show will reveal a different facet of her personality to fans.

On the other hand, Celebrity Traitors signifies a return to the limelight for Charlotte, who in recent years traded fame to operate a wellness retreat in her native Wales.

Historian David may be a fresh face to some, but he's the author of several best-selling books and was honoured with an OBE in 2019.

Television presenter Jonathan will be experiencing a role reversal, as he's typically seen hosting shows or judging, like on The Masked Singer.

The complete line-up also features Brit Award nominee Cat Burns, who is recognised by fans as a devoted follower of Traitors, often engaging in discussions about the show on social media.

Good Morning Britain's Kate Garraway will be transitioning from ITV to BBC to participate. While it's not her first reality show, after enduring a challenging few years due to the loss of her husband, it's bound to bring some light-hearted moments for her.

Actress Celia Imrie, celebrated for her roles in films such as Calendar Girls and Bridget Jones' Diary, will also be participating and is reportedly eager to begin.

She'll be accompanied by fellow actress Tameka Empson, widely known for her portrayal of Kim Fox on EastEnders.

Irish actress Ruth Codd, who had her right leg amputated following a foot injury, is set to join the fun before making her film debut in How To Train Your Dragon, which is due for release later this year.

Line of Duty's Mark Bonnar and Ted Lasso's Nick Mohammed complete the actor line-up.

Following a tough period in her personal life, marked by the end of her marriage to Jon Richardson, comedian Lucy Beaumont has also joined the cast. She was one of the last additions, announced just days before filming commenced.

Joining the comedic lineup is Joe Wilkinson, who has also recently featured on the Prime Video series Last One Laughing.

TV icon Clare Balding is set to swap her presenting duties for a spot in the limelight. The Sun reported back in October that she had signed up, with an insider claiming: "No one really believes that the Beeb's dependable, sensible face of sport could be a treacherous liar".

Stepping out from the world of sports is Joe Marler. The rugby ace reportedly wants to demonstrate that there's more to him than just his athletic prowess.

And causing a stir will be YouTube sensation Niko Omilana, whose penchant for pranks is bound to attract a younger demographic to the show.
