The Traitors final airs this week and fans should be aware of a schedule shake-up on BBC One. After a whirlwind series, the popular BBC<\/a> programme will come to an end on Friday and either the Traitors or the Faithfuls will be crowned winners.<\/p>\n

Viewers have been gripped to the current series of the show hosted by Claudia Winkleman since it kickstarted earlier this month. A total of 22 fresh faces descended on the infamous Scottish castle <\/a>with the chance to win a huge cash prize. Up to \u00a3120,000 could be won by the players when the series concludes.<\/p>\n

Throughout the series, the Faithfuls, who aren’t aware of their rivals’ identities, attempt to find the Traitors and remove them from the game in order to win the prize fund.<\/a><\/p>\n

There will be one last round table during the finale episode.<\/a> If there are no Traitors left in the game, the Faithfuls can split the prize pot between them. But if there’s still a Traitor, they take home the full prize.<\/p>\n

Fans should be aware of a change to the usual schedule this week. The Traitors usually airs Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays at 8pm on BBC One and iPlayer.<\/p>\n

But Fridays’s finale episode airs at the later time of 8:30pm. The episode will air for a longer 75 minutes, meaning it will finish at 9.45pm.<\/p>\n

It will be followed by the final episode of The Traitors: Uncloaked, <\/a>as Ed Gamble looks back at the episode with the help of the finalists.<\/p>\n

Any players who are banished <\/a>in the last episode will not reveal whether they are a Traitor or a Faithful, differing from the format of the past two series.<\/p>\n

This year’s series has had several shocking moments from the very beginning.<\/p>\n

Whether it was Harriet’s surprising decision to try and expose Rachel over breakfast or Fiona’s big reveal as the first Secret Traitor, series four of The Traitors will be one to remember.<\/p>\n

As of today, two Traitors still remain<\/a> in the castle. But will Stephen or Rachel make it to the end and take home the prize pot.<\/p>\n

The current remaining Faithfuls are Faraaz, Jack, Jade, Matthew, and Roxy.<\/p>\n

The Traitors final airs Friday at 8:30pm on BBC One and iPlayer<\/p>\n
