The BBC has shared the release date for the upcoming series of Celebrity Traitors, and fans don't have long to wait.
Applications are also open for the regular version of the show, meaning armchair traitors and faithfuls can get in on the action as well.
The celebrity edition of the popular reality programme will premiere with an extra-long opening episode lasting around 70 minutes.
The BBC has said the 2025 series of Celebrity Traitors will return to the BBC on Wednesday, October 8, at 9pm.
Much like in the regular version of the show, celebrities will play the "ultimate game of detection, backstabbing and trust, in the hope of winning a cash prize up to £100,000 for a charity of their choice."
Alongside the new series, an official visualised companion podcast called Celebrity Traitors: Uncloaked will make a return to BBC Two. It will air immediately after the main series and also be available on BBC Sounds and BBC iPlayer.
Host Ed Gamble will be joined by the celebrities and players from previous seasons to analyse and react to developments in the castle.
These are the celebrities taking part in Celebrity Traitors next month:
