Will there be a second series of The Traitors

A second series of The Traitors is a "no-brainer", according to an inside television source.

The debut series has just wrapped, crowning Hannah, Meryl and Aaron as its winners. After several weeks of lies and betrayal, the BBC's new runaway show had viewers hooked from the moment it launched.

Several of the contestants became massive stars with viewers - Amanda, Andrea and Maddie - whilst others ruffled feathers for their silver tongues and harsh accusations. After everything, there are already questions as to whether or not the show is up for renewal.

A source speaking to the Daily Star said: "The Traitors has become a big hit after just a few weeks. It was a no-brainer to commission another series.

The insider added: "Claudia absolutely loves the show and thinks it’s a brilliant format. It’s basically a done deal that she’ll be back."
