Overview

• Nineteen celebrities entered the Scottish Highlands castle for a nine-episode run that began with a 70-minute premiere.
• The opening cemetery challenge had players dig their own graves for shields, granting first-murder immunity to Jonathan Ross, Joe Marler, Joe Wilkinson, Kate Garraway, Charlotte Church and Celia Imrie.
• Claudia Winkleman selected Ross, Carr and Burns as the initial Traitors after one-on-one interviews with the cast.
• A team mission hauling a wooden Trojan horse through gates added £15,000 to the communal pot toward a maximum £100,000 for charity.
• The episode ended with Carr handling a ‘black lily’ to prepare the first plain-sight elimination, as the BBC reported a 6.5 million peak and confirmed episodes air Wednesdays and Thursdays at 9pm on BBC One and iPlayer.
