BBC The Traitors 2025: When is it on next, how many episodes are left and when does it end
This week marks the last week of The Traitors' third series. The BBC psychological adventure game show saw 22 strangers head to the Scottish castle, including two sisters, a priest and a Faithful-turned-Traitor faking a Welsh accent.
Within the last nine episodes, there have been multiple banishments, murders and even two traitors caught out. And through it all, the contestants have played the ultimate game of detection, backstabbing, and trust, all watched by the viewers and the game show host, Claudia Winkleman, who knows exactly who the Traitors really are. To find out the full list of The Traitors' contestants still in the game, as well as those who have been banished and murdered, read more here.
With up to £120K to win, the last three episodes of the series will undoubtedly be tense, with the last remaining Faithfuls trying their best to banish the Traitors, before they 'murder' them and win the cash prize. Here's everything you need to know about the BBC's The Traitors series of 2024, when it will be on our TV screens next, how many episodes are left and when it ends.

When will it be on my TV screens next?
New episodes will be available at 9pm on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday evenings, which means that this week, they will be aired on Wednesday, January 22, Thursday, January 23 and Friday, January 24. Viewers can watch the show either on BBC One or on BBC iPlayer. Each episode is roughly just under an hour, but the finale will run longer at 70 minutes and will start at 8.30pm
If you haven't been watching the series so far, then you can watch all the nine episodes that have aired so far on BBC iPlayer.
And if you have been watching, but can't wait for the next episodes then you can watch the spin-off visual podcast series The Traitors: Uncloaked, presented by comedian Ed Gamble. After every episode, Ed and a host of guests discuss what has happened so far on the series. You can watch this series straight after each episode on BBC Two at 10pm - except for Friday, January 24. The finale night will see Uncloaked moved to BBC One and start at 9.40pm.
Alternatively, you can catch up on missed episodes on BBC iPlayer here or listen to the podcast on BBC Sounds here.
How many episodes are left?
There are three episodes left, which will all be aired this week. The next episode, which will be episode 10, will be aired at 9pm on Wednesday evening, January 22, on BBC One. Episode 11 will also be aired at 9pm on Thursday evening, January 23 on BBC One. However, episode 12 - the final episode, will also be aired a little earlier than usual at 8.30pm on Friday evening, January 24 on BBC One.
As was the case for series one, which was aired in November 2022, and series two, which was aired in January 2024, the third series has arguably captured the nation in such a short space of time. The first episode of this series was aired on New Year's Day (Wednesday, January 1), nearly four weeks ago.
When does it end?
As mentioned previously, episode 12 - the final episode, will be aired a little earlier than usual at 8.30pm on Friday evening, January 24 on BBC One. The last episode of the series will be a bit longer as well - an hour and 10 minutes to be exact.
As also mentioned, there will be slight changes to the visual podcast The Traitors: Uncloaked on Friday evening. The podcast's last ever episode, also episode 12, will be aired on BBC One straight after The Traitors concludes at 10.40pm. All the finalists will join Ed Gamble for their exclusive first interviews in a very special episode of Uncloaked in front of a live audience, and the one and only Claudia Winkleman will join Ed to reflect on the series.
The Traitors will be aired from Wednesday to Friday at 9pm on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.
