Fans make major plea about series two: ‘Don’t let this happen!’
As fans anticipate the second series of The Traitors, they’ve made a major plea for series two.
In the US version of the show, they mixed in celebrities with ordinary people and viewers are hoping the BBC won’t do the same in the UK version.
It ruins the whole dynamic of the game.
One viewer wrote: “Celebrities are NOT the way forward. Sadly, I expect Bloggers, Vloggers, TikTokers and Influencers, to try to hijack this prog for their own promotion.
“Please don’t let this happen BBC!”
A second viewer added: “The fact that the contestants were US reality TV stars had no appeal whatsoever!”
A third fan agreed: “Please don’t get reality TV contestants like The Traitors US. It ruins the whole dynamic of the game.”
