Celebrity Traitors season 2 cast: Confirmed line-up of famous faces taking part

**Warning: The below article contains MAJOR SPOILERS for The Celebrity Traitors season 2 episode 6!**

We are eight episodes into The Celebrity Traitors with two Traitors banished, a Faithful murdered in plain sight, and an ever-changing line-up at the round table.

Our latest episode saw comedian Miranda Hart (also known as Big Mix) become the latest victim of the Traitors' evil scheme. Miranda was clearly not happy that her time was cut short, after screwing up her letter and throwing it on the ground.

Meanwhile, with three undetected Traitors, it appears that James Acaster, OG Traitor Maya Jama and King Kenny have a decent chance of taking the prize pot for themselves.

Elsewhere, Sharon Rooney and Joanne McNally are both up for banishment, as the Faithfuls act like headless chickens in their hunt for the Traitors.

But in the meantime, which other famous faces are taking part in the ultimate game of deception and betrayal in the hope of winning a cash prize of up to £100,000 for a charity of their choice?
