Stephen Fry Confirmed for Celebrity The Traitors

Stephen Fry has reportedly agreed to participate in the upcoming celebrity edition of the hit show The Traitors, making him the first confirmed contestant. The 67-year-old broadcaster was the top choice of host Claudia Winkleman, who expressed her eagerness to have him on the show. Although no contracts have been signed, Fry has indicated he is enthusiastic and ready to join once a time is set. Other potential celebrity participants include Ricky Gervais, Victoria Coren Mitchell, Adam Woodyatt, and Andrew Garfield, but Gervais has suggested he is too busy to commit. This celebrity spin-off marks the first of its kind in the UK, following successful versions in the US. The show, known for its murder-mystery-style gameplay, will consist of nine episodes, with production details still under wraps.
