Here are some of the key dates for series two of The Celebrity Traitors - including when the final is.

The Celebrity Traitors is back and better than ever, with the cast of series two already bringing plenty of chaos to the iconic castle.

Richard E. Grant has thrown a spanner in the works with his early, and possibly fatal, reveal to the group, with a further Traitor picked out from among the Faithful following a dramatic start to the show.

How the rest of the season will play out comes down to how well his fellow Traitors are able to redirect suspicion and deceive those around them.
