The Celebrity Traitors is back for a second series, and viewers will see the likes of Michael Sheen, Jerry Hall, Richard E Grant and Amol Rajan at the round table along with Bella Ramsey, Leigh-Anne Pinnock, Maya Jama and King Kenny.
There are 21 celebrities taking part in total - two more than last year - and there will be an extra episode after the huge popularity of last year's series.
The extended 75-minute debut episode starts at 20:00 BST on Thursday, with Claudia Winkleman again hosting the murderous game.

The celebrities will be playing for a £100,000 cash prize for charity.
