When is The Traitors final? BBC confirm date as 'game changing' move shocks fans

The Traitors is without a doubt the most talked about programme on TV right now and there's now not long to go until the final, with the date being confirmed just as fans were blown away by a 'game changing' twist.

Completely different to any BBC show that came before it, The Traitors is an intense and high stakes game that sees members of the public work together in an attempt to accumulate a cash prize of up to £120,000. However, while they might be working as a team, there are Traitors amongst them who have been picking off Faithfuls from episode one, with 'murders' happening nearly every night.

The Traitors were chosen by host Claudia Winkleman, who is a much more sinister force to be reckoned with, compared to how she is on Strictly Come Dancing. And, after another Faithful was incorrectly banished on Tuesday night's show and the Traitors prepared to murder again, presenter Claudia was at the centre of a mind blowing twist that aired right before credits rolled.

In a preview for Thursday's next episode, Claudia was seen telling remaining Traitors, Amanda and Wilf, that they would need to 'murder in plain sight' as the pressure mounts and the finger of suspicion is pointed at pretty much everyone.

When is The Traitors final?

There are now just five episodes left of The Traitors, with the final being confirmed for Thursday, December 22 at 9pm on BBC One. The World Cup will be over by then, so there should be no chance of it being moved from that slot.

As the clock ticks down to the finale, many fans are publicly declaring their support for the Traitors, with the overwhelming majority of posts online being in favour of them winning over the Faithfuls.
