The BBC is preparing an all-star version of 'The Traitors', with Ricky Gervais reportedly at the top of their wish list for celebrity contestants. The new spin-off is slated to start filming in early 2025, and while Gervais's participation is uncertain due to his busy schedule, the network hopes to attract a lineup of 'crème de la crème' stars known for their wit and charm. Alongside Gervais, other potential participants include Jonathan Ross and Courteney Cox, as producers aim to bring big names to the table. The announcement came during the Edinburgh TV Festival, where it was also confirmed that a fourth civilian series will air following the third season in January. Kalpna Patel-Knight, the BBC's head of entertainment, emphasized the show's significant impact and broad appeal, suggesting that it could reach new heights with the celebrity edition. The show has gained immense popularity, evidenced by record viewership numbers and multiple awards, setting high expectations for the upcoming series.
