U.K. Celebrity Traitors highlights

The U.K. spin-off Celebrity Traitors features a cast of public figures and has aired overseas. Celia Imrie, credited for roles including in the Bridget Jones films, has appeared in multiple widely shared moments on the show. Specifically, clips show her audibly passing gas during task instructions, loudly saying she had been snooping, screaming into a well, and using the word “pussy” in conversation, which reports indicate was used while she referred to a traditional nursery rhyme.

Casting differences between the U.K. and U.S. shows

The U.K. Celebrity Traitors cast includes people from a variety of careers. For example, the U.K. lineup has included pop singer Paloma Faith and Olympic diver Tom Daley. Conversely, recent U.S. seasons have featured large numbers of reality TV personalities from franchises such as Real Housewives, Below Deck, and Survivor. Moreover, the U.S. version initially mixed lower-profile celebrities with civilian contestants in its first season; however, later U.S. seasons have leaned more toward reality-TV alumni.

Prize pot rules and how they differ

The two versions use different prize arrangements. In the U.S. format, contestants who win keep the prize money. In the U.K. Celebrity Traitors format, players donate the prize pot to a charity of their choice. Therefore, the stated charity-based payout is a structural difference between the shows.

U.S. show details and upcoming season casting

The U.S. edition is hosted by Alan Cumming. Additionally, producers have announced cast members for a future U.S. season, which includes comedian Ron Funches and Donna Kelce. The current and announced lineups show efforts to vary casting across seasons. Meanwhile, past U.S. contestants have included figures with well-known reality-TV backgrounds; one example from press coverage noted Tom Sandoval once said “women are better cheaters” instead of “traitors” during a live segment.
