Claudia Winkleman confirms The Traitors is returning for a third series – and applications are already open

THE Traitors has only just finished its second run, but host Claudia Winkleman has already confirmed a third is on its way.

So if you fancy yourself someone who has enough wits to win up to £120,000 – now is your time to apply.

The BBC game of deception reached its nail-biting conclusion on Friday evening – with Traitor Harry Clark taking home £95,150 after successfully remaining undetected.

After becoming a viral sensation, Claudia simply tweeted: “Thank you so so much for watching. We’ll see you next year.”

The tweet was accompanied with a GIF of her shutting a coffin lid on former faithful Diane Carson.

During a chat on spin-off show The Traitors: Uncloaked after the finale aired, host Ed Gamble also confirmed that you are able to apply.

As his chat with the finalists wound down, he told viewers: “If you think you have what it takes to compete in The Traitors, casting for series three is now open – but not for long. In fact, the closing date is February 11th.”
