Claudia Winkleman shares her surprising love for the brutal twists in The Traitors as the show returns for its third season
Inverness: Claudia Winkleman has really changed her tune about The Traitors. She used to dread the game’s brutal twists, but now she’s all in for the drama. It’s wild how hosting the show has transformed her perspective.
She’s known for her sweet side on shows like Strictly Come Dancing, but now she’s embracing the cutthroat nature of The Traitors. Claudia recalls her first experience with the show, where she was shocked to send two players home right off the bat. Back then, she just couldn’t handle it.
But fast forward to now, and she’s ready for the chaos. As she kicks off the third season, she’s excited about the new twists and turns. Claudia said, “The faster they go, ‘Oh, okay,’ the better.” It’s clear she’s ready for the players to dive into the game.
Last season was a hit, with millions tuning in, and she’s teasing even more shocking moments this time around. She mentioned a round table scene that had everyone in tears, including herself. It’s not just a game; it gets real emotional.
Claudia’s not letting the success get to her head, though. She’s still nervous about how fans will react. She shared that she woke up at 4 AM, worrying about the show’s reception. It’s a big deal for her, especially with the awards the show has won.
Tonight, viewers will meet the new contestants at Ardross Castle. They’ll be working together to build a prize pot while trying to figure out who the Traitors are. It’s a mix of personalities this year, including a priest and a window cleaner, all trying to outsmart each other.
Claudia is hopeful that this season will be just as thrilling as the last. She’s excited to see how the new players strategize and interact. It’s all about the game, and she’s ready to see who comes out on top.
