Those eagerly awaiting the line up have been in uproar as they were convinced TV favourite Bob Mortimer would be taking part but is so far missing from the cast. Martin Lewis also confirmed he was offered to take part but had to turn it down because of his schedule.

Daisy May Cooper and her brother Charlie also dropped out of the show early on after realising how long the filming commitments were.

Are there any Celebrity Traitors UK spoilers?

As filming has only just begun, no spoilers have been dropped just yet and sadly, we don't expect to hear any before the series starts.

Producers of the show have reportedly pulled out all the stops to keep the outcomes of this series protected from viewers until it's time to air. No fly zones over the castle and blacked out cars are said to have been top priority.
