Psychological reality show The Traitors has been confirmed for a third season and applications are now open for those who dare to take part in the nail-biting game.
Hosted by Claudia Winkleman, The BAFTA-winning show is a reality competition where '22 strangers play the ultimate game of detection, backstabbing and trust, in the hope of winning up to £120,000'.

Season one saw the TV contestants move into an old castle in the Scottish Highlands to complete a series of challenges and missions together as a team.
Earlier in February, a cloaked-up Winkleman confirmed the news of the second outing on X (Twitter).
"Hi, it's Claud here," the BBC host began.
"I've got a small question for you and, yes you're right, the cloak might be giving it away."

"Here's the thing," she went on, before asking a handful of questions to viewers.
"Can you spot a liar? Could you betray those around you? How would you fare at the round table?" she asked.
"What I'm asking is: would you like to play?"
Fans of the show struggled to hold in their excitement, with one person tweeting: "'ITS HAPPENING EVERYBODY STAY CALM."

Another added: "Get it in my eyes, @BBCOne!'; 'My entire year has been leading up to this."
Someone else said: "SERIES 2 IS COMING SOON!!! YES!!!"
Although season two is expected to air before the end of the year, the BBC has already announced a third series.
