The Traitors Claudia Winkleman wins big at BAFTAs as she recalls 'going to Scotland with cloaks'

It was a big night for celebrities over the weekend with the BAFTAS taking place on May 14 (Sunday) after the grand final of Eurovision which took place on Saturday.

It was a triumphant night for many with cheers all around - but one host seemed to get a pretty loud round of applause from the audience after she collected not one, but two awards during the evening.

Show The Traitor's won best reality series while Claudia Winkleman took the gong for best entertainment performance.

And during her speech, she recalled the moment the show would be going ahead saying: "I went, 'OK, just to be clear, we're going to Scotland, we've got some cloaks, we're going to use the word murder, I've got a big rollneck and I'm holding a ceremonial pouch, are you OK with that?' And they went 'go for it'."

She also took the opportunity to ask her husband from the stage: "Please, can we have a dog?"

Fans of the reality competition show will be glad to know that The Traitors UK has been confirmed to return for a second series and it's safe to say we are all a little more than excited.

It will once again be filmed in the Scottish Highlands where a team of players will compete in a series of missions to rack up a cash prize. The more tasks they complete successfully, the bigger the money they take home.

However, amongst the players lie the ‘Traitors’. These cunning contestants meet in secret and decide who to eliminate from their fellow players known as the ‘Faithfuls’, with the goal of the Traitors to stay undetected until the end of the game and take the money for themselves.

Whilst trying to avoid being eliminated, the Faithfuls must figure out who is a Traitor and vote them out in order to take home the prize pot. Throughout the season, there will be twists, turns, and surprises for the players.
