Everything you wanted to know about ‘The Traitors' castle but were afraid to ask

The grandiose castle on 'The Traitors' is an apt setting for the conniving game show, immersing players in a historic location in the Scottish Highlands. Both the U.S. and U.K. versions of the series use Ardross Castle, a 19th century structure once owned by the grandson of the creator of Worcestershire sauce. It's now owned by the McTaggart family, who graciously allow 'The Traitors' to take over multiple rooms and the vast grounds during filming. 'There's something about coming to a place that's so steeped in history and playing a game there,' says executive producer Rosie Franks. 'The castle has contributed so much to the identity of the show. We'd struggle to make the same show without it. It is a gift of a location because you don't need any TV trickery.' 'If it wasn't for that environment, I don't think the players would get so invested,' adds executive producer Mike Cotton. 'That feeling of being somewhere special in the middle of an isolated place allows us to create this very three-dimensional world they can inhabit.' Here, Cotton and Franks answer all of your burning questions about 'The Traitors' castle. How was Ardross Castle selected? The producers looked at more than 40 castles. Scotland was always a draw, as was something with fantastical flourishes. 'It's like a Disney castle that's got Gothic and dark undertones to it,' Cotton says. 'We wanted something that had that feeling but also had a great hall where we could house the round table. We needed a really big room for that.' Do we see all of the castle on the show? Not even close. When 'The Traitors' first arrived, the team discovered that areas of the building were desolate. 'There's huge parts of that castle that we don't use within our show because they're not renovated or haven't been touched for a long time,' Franks says. 'Plus, to rig an entire 19th century castle with cameras would be a big job.' 'What you see onscreen is a majority of the downstairs of the castle,' Cotton adds. 'The cast can roam free in our space, but obviously we can't have them roaming free over the entire castle because it would be impossible to cover it.' The castle's size has led to new discoveries during the series' run. 'It wasn't until Season 2 that we discovered it had this space that felt like a dungeon,' Cotton recalls. 'When Phaedra asked Kate to become a traitor, she was in this dungeon. It was a discovery we didn't realize was underground. We'd walked over it for a whole year.' How many cameras are in the house? There are about 50 cameras in the castle, most of which are hidden. In the great hall, the cameras are behind wood paneling that was built inside the room to surround the round table. There are also cameras in the pillars throughout the house in addition to actual camera operators. 'A lot of the pillars look like they've been there for 50 or 100 years, but they've actually been built specifically for us,' Cotton says. Not all of the cameras are recording at once. 'We've got a gallery of screens where we can see all of them, and then we choose a certain number that we're recording,' Franks says. 'We're located separately in a production village in the castle's stable block, and we're very hands off with the game.' Does the set change from the U.K. to the U.S. editions? The sets are mostly the same, but the art does change. For the U.S. show, there are pictures of Alan Cumming and Andy Cohen added to the walls. Occasionally, small trinkets will be swapped out. Does the set evolve between seasons? Yes. The producers make 'small alterations,' Franks explains. 'We like to freshen up little bits each time,' she says. 'We did create a little secret room, which has been through different iterations. Last season, it was a wine cellar you access through the bookcase.' 'It feels like it's a real place,' Cotton adds. 'Yes, we fill it with some slightly eccentric decor at times, but we want it to be its own thing. With all these big Scottish castles, they don't redecorate every single year, so we don't either.' What was the inspiration for the round table? The round table is 14 feet in diameter to accommodate all the players. Season 1 production designer Mathieu Weekes looked at the table on the original Dutch show, 'De Verraders,' which featured a compass, and added the phases of the moon. It houses a few cameras and is as hefty as it looks. 'The top is a really big, solid piece of wood that's got some light slightly embedded in it,' Cotton says. Are there Easter eggs in the decor? Of course there are. The producers hide tongue-in-cheek details in the rooms each season. For example, the book that opened the wine cellar in Season 3 was titled 'The Seer,' a nod to the big finale twist. 'The artwork sometimes alludes to the tones of the show or things that are going on in the castle or missions,' Franks says. 'We like to drip-feed viewers throughout so that the whole thing feels like a joined-up experience.' Do the players sleep in the castle during filming? The producers refuse to answer this definitively because it could affect future games. 'The success of 'The Traitors' really does rely on us maintaining the integrity of the game, and that includes us keeping the details of what happens behind the scenes a secret,' Franks says. 'Keeping the traitors' identities secret is the No. 1 thing for us,' Cotton adds. 'For everyone to go to their rooms and go to bed, and then for us to get the traitors back out is a military operation. As soon as we start to talk about exactly where they sleep and how it works, we're really worried that might unpick it all. The players are desperate to find out who the traitors are and they'll go to any means possible to do it.' Does the show film all of the outdoor challenges on the actual castle grounds? Cotton says about 90% of them are filmed on site. The other 10% are done at a nearby loch. But one of the main attractions to Ardross was its 2,000 acres of land. 'It's got a river that runs through it. It's got its own hills, it's got fields, it's got forest, it's got marshland,' Cotton says. 'And we use all of that. Part of the appeal was that it has a huge natural playground around it that we could use for missions.' Are there any restrictions on using real fire when filming? None. 'The Traitors' even has its own fire team to light the medieval-looking torches around the castle. 'We love fire,' Cotton says. 'There's nothing like when you go in somewhere and you can smell a wood fire. We always say that the game plays really psychological because they're immersed. So much of that is down to the castle and the set and the smells.'

'Call Her Daddy' host Alex Cooper recalls 'psychotic game' of sexual harassment

'Call Her Daddy' host Alex Cooper recalls 'psychotic game' of sexual harassment Show Caption Hide Caption Need a show to binge? These are the must watch shows this summer USA TODAY's TV critic Kelly Lawler breaks down the best TV shows you don't to want to miss this summer Alex Cooper, celebrated for her let's-go-there honesty on her chart-topping podcast "Call Her Daddy," is pulling back the curtain even further. The two-part Hulu docuseries 'Call Her Alex' (streaming June 10) captures the relentless drive that led Cooper, 30, to land a lucrative SiriusXM deal (reportedly worth up to $125 million). But it also reveals the low points of her life. Growing up, boys taunted Cooper, a natural redhead. Cruel kids made fun of her hair and thin frame. 'You're disgusting,' she says they taunted her. 'No one wants to touch you.' 'I hated myself,' Cooper adds. School 'was such hell,' but at home she poured her creativity into skits that she starred in, filmed and edited. Cooper started "Call Her Daddy" in 2018 with her then-roommate Sofia Franklyn, who left the podcast in 2020. 'People genuinely believed we were like sisters," Cooper said. "But our relationship was so awful.' Cooper also addresses a subject she rarely has: Claims of being sexually harassed by Boston University soccer coach Nancy Feldman as a member of the team in college. Boston University has not respond to USA TODAY's request for comment. Feldman could not be reached, and the documentary, directed by Ry Russo-Young, did not include a statement from the university or its former coach. No charges were ever filed. Alex Cooper remembers Boston University soccer coach Nancy Feldman 'really starting to fixate on me' Cooper, who loved playing soccer, was on the collegiate team at Boston University. She says she attended the school on a full scholarship to play for Feldman. Cooper says during her sophomore year, she noticed Feldman 'really starting to fixate on me, way more than any other teammate of mine. And it was confusing,' Cooper says, as 'it was all based in her wanting to know who I was dating, her making comments about my body and her always wanting to be alone with me.' Feldman would comment on her legs, Cooper says in the docuseries, and would put her hand on her thigh. Cooper says that once, Feldman found out she had been brought to campus by someone she was seeing. The coach asked her during a private meeting if she had had sex the previous night, and discouraged Cooper from sleeping off campus. 'I didn't know what to do,' Cooper says, 'and every time I tried to resist her, she would say there could be consequences, and there were.' 'It was this psychotic game of, 'You want to play? Tell me about your sex life,'' Cooper alleges. ''I have to drive you to your night class. Get in the car with me alone.'' Alex Cooper says sexual harassment claims were 'entirely dismissed' without an investigation Cooper says she confided in her mother, Laurie Cooper, who took notes on their conversations about the coach's behavior. Laurie, interviewed for the docuseries, says lawyers identified Feldman's behavior as sexual harassment. Alex Cooper says she and her parents met with the dean of athletics, whom her parents told that Cooper had been sexually harassed by Feldman for three years on campus. Cooper says she was then asked by staff, 'What do you want?' They wouldn't even look at Laurie's collection of Cooper's complaints. Cooper says the university refused to fire Feldman, but told Cooper she could keep her scholarship. There was 'no investigation,' Cooper says. 'Within five minutes, they had entirely dismissed everything I had been through. I got into the car with my parents and when the door shut, I immediately broke down and I just started sobbing.' (Feldman retired from BU in 2022.) Cooper returned to Boston University for the first time for 'Call Her Alex.' She said she cried as she looked at the field and reflected on what had been stripped from her. 'When I look back at that time in my life, I was scared, hopeless,' Cooper says. 'I had no resources and no options, and the minute I left that campus I was so determined to find a way where no one could ever silence me again.'

Podcast star Alex Cooper accuses her Boston University soccer coach of sexual harassment in new doc

Popular podcaster Alex Cooper made startling allegations in the upcoming Hulu documentary, 'Call Her Alex,' that she was sexually harassed by her soccer coach at Boston University. The revelation in the new Hulu doc, set to premiere on the streaming platform on June 10, comes 10 years after Cooper said she went through the ordeal, which she claimed was three years of escalating sexual harassment at the hands of former head coach Nancy Feldman until she left the team in her senior year. 'I felt a lot of anger—anger at my coach, anger at my school, and anger at the system that allowed this to happen,' the 'Call Her Daddy' podcast host Cooper said in the documentary, according to Vanity Fair. 'I don't think anyone could've prepared me for the lasting effects that came from this experience. She turned something that I loved so much into something extremely painful.' Feldman coached BU's women's soccer team for 22 years before she retired in 2022, but Cooper said that the former coach started to 'fixate on me way more than any other teammate of mine' during her sophomore season. Cooper was a member of the Terriers women's soccer program from 2013-15. It was during that time Cooper alleges Feldman took an uncomfortable interest in her and would make comments about her body and her personal life, including once asking Cooper if she had sex the previous night. The podcaster and media mogul also said Feldman would try to get her alone, put a hand on her thigh and stare at her. In the documentary, Cooper said that any time she would try to 'resist' Feldman, the coach would tell her 'there would be consequences.' 'It was this psychotic game of, 'You wanna play? Tell me about your sex life. I have to drive you to your night class, get in the car with me alone,'' Cooper said in the doc. 'I started trying to spend as little time as possible with her. Taking different routes to practice where I knew I wouldn't run into her, during meetings, I would try to sit as far away from her as possible. Literally anything to not be alone with this woman.' And when Cooper and her family attempted to approach Boston University officials about their claims, she said they were brushed off and officials asked her, 'What do you want?' Cooper claims Boston University officials told her family that they would not fire Feldman, but would allow Cooper to keep her full soccer scholarship. Cooper said that the school did not investigate her claims. Feldman compiled 418 victories to rank 22nd all time among NCAA women's soccer coaches and was named conference coach of the year 12 times. She was the program's only coach since 1995, when it became a varsity sport. Boston University did not immediately respond to a request for comment by The Post. Cooper has hinted at a traumatic experience from her time playing soccer at BU, which included interviews with Cosmopolitan and The New York Times, and it was teased in the trailer for the documentary. The documentary premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival before its release on the streaming platform, and during a Q&A afterward, Cooper, who previously worked for Barstool Sports, said she was motivated to come forward as they were making the film. 'During the filming of this documentary, I found out that the harassment and abuse of power is still happening on the campus of Boston University, and I spoke to one of the victims, and hearing her story was horrific, and I knew in that moment, if I don't speak about this, it's going to continue happening,' Cooper said, according to Deadline. 'Call Her Daddy' became one of the most popular podcasts on the planet after debuting in 2018 and surged to second on the podcast charts behind only 'The Joe Rogan Experience,' before Cooper went over to SiriusXM last year in a massive deal.
