If you’re a Tratiors-holic, you might be scouring the castle for more dramatic content about the beloved reality show that’s based on the party game Mafia. Well, lucky for you, the BBC just premiered the first season of The Celebrity Traitors, which features stars from across the pond who will be sequestered in the castle trying to find the murderers.

The Celebrity Traitors is a spinoff of The Traitors: UK, which is also a spinoff of the Dutch series De Verraders. The Traitors US superfans might be pondering why a celebrity season is special, since the Peacock iteration only features reality stars. Well, in the UK version, the regular version of The Traitors stars everyday people. This is the first time that celebs like Tom Daley, Sir Stephen Fry, Alan Carr, Paloma Faith, and Cat Burns are entering the castle.

Host Claudia Winkleman will choose who will be Traitors and who will be Faithfuls in the ultimate game of deception. The winner won’t be taking the £100,000 to the bank, but rather donating it to charity. Want to keep up with the drama? Find out how to watch it if you’re a US resident below.

How to Watch The Celebrity Traitors in the US

The Celebrity Traitors is available to watch on their page on the BBC’s iPlayer, which is exclusively available for UK residents. However, to watch it in the US, Americans will first need a VPN, a service that allows users to set their computer’s location to another country and access websites that would otherwise be restricted by location. The most popular VPNs are ExpressVPN, NordVPN, and PureVPN—all of which offer a 30-day money-back guarantee.

EDITOR’S PICK
Watch Celebrity Traitors in the US with ExpressVPN
ExpressVPN is one of the most popular VPN services and the one we recommend the most of any VPN service we’ve tried. The service—which allows users to set their location to over 160 locations in 105 countries with unlimited bandwidth—offers a 30-day free trial and a money-back guarantee with several subscription options to fit different viewing needs. The monthly plan starts at $12.99, which works well if you don’t want a long-term commitment. The best value, however, comes with the two-year plan at just $3.49 per month—a 73% savings compared to the monthly rate. You’ll pay $97.72 upfront for 28 months (24 months plus four free bonus months), then it renews annually. There’s also a middle option with the annual plan at $4.49 monthly, offering 67% savings. ExpressVPN only takes around five minutes to set up, and also promises lightning-quick connectivity and 24-hour live-chat support, and allows users to connect to any device, from computers to phones to tablets.

Watch Celebrity Traitors in the US with NordVPN
NordVPN is another popular VPN service recommended by YouTubers like PewDiePie, Casey Neistat, and Philip DeFranco. The service—which offers a 30-day free trial and a money-back guarantee—has three levels of plans: one month, one year, and two years. All three levels offer four different plans: Basic, Plus, Complete, and Prime. We recommend opting for one of NordVPN’s two-year plans, since prices go significantly down for those plans. For a Basic plan, for example, you’re looking at $3.09 per month for a two-year plan (73% off), $4.99 for one year (56% off), and $12.99 if you pay monthly (no discount). Along with access to over 59 countries, NordVPN also allows users to connect to multiple devices (from computers to phones to tablets) and offers 24-hour live chat support.

After the free trial ends, users can sign up for one of PureVPN’s three plans—Max, Plus, or Standard—for either one month, one year, two years, or five years. Similar to NordVPN, prices decrease the longer the plan lasts. For example, the Standard plan costs $2.16 a month for five years (83% off), $2.14 for two years (83% off plus three months free), $3.99 for one year (69% off), and $12.95 for one month (no discount).

It also features the lowest prices after the free trial ends across all three VPN options mentioned in this story. So if you’re watching on a budget, sign up for PureVPN.

Who hosts The Celebrity Traitors?

The Traitors UK host Claudia Winkleman is hosting The Celebrity Traitors. For the celebrity version of the show, Winkleman is treating everyone fair and equally. “I know out in the real world you’re very important and successful, but here, there is no special treatment.”

However, even being the head host comes with some restrictions. “The biggest challenge was being ‘strict’. All I wanted to do was chat and be friendly but my role is aloof and grumpy. I found it hard not to just sit down with them and have a cup of tea. My family and I are obsessed with Joe Wilkinson, I had to stop myself getting his autograph for my son.”
