Claudia Winkleman has become as well known for her role on The Traitors as her presenting position on Strictly Come Dancing in recent years.

The BBC legend previously admitted she'd originally turned down the offer to host The Traitors, but had a change of mind after becoming glued to the Dutch version of the reality series.

So she headed up to Inverness, in Scotland, to film the show in the breathtaking Ardross Castle, unsure whether the UK version would be a bop or a flop.

To her surprise, the first series proved to be a huge success, with more than six million viewers tuning in to the opening episode. The series won two BAFTAs which included Claudia winning the Best Entertainment Performance accolade.
