Contestants stay at a castle in the Scottish Highlands, where a few are secretly designated as 'Traitors' whose job is to 'murder' their fellow players, without getting caught.
The rest are 'Faithfuls' who try to detect who the 'Traitors' are and banish them from the game before they become their next victim.
The aim of the game is to survive to the final few players. If they are all 'Faithfuls', then the prize money is split among them, but if a 'Traitor' is left, they take it all.

Celebrity SAS viewers slam lying recruit kicked out for 'cutting corners'
Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins viewers have slammed a recruit after he was told his 'integrity and honesty stinks'. Last month the Channel 4 reality show returned to screens – welcoming 14 new famous faces who are put through their paces to try and achieve SAS selection. This year's line-up has included S Club's Hannah Spearritt, X Factor's Lucy Spraggan, Love Island stars Tasha Ghouri, Chloe Burrows and Adam Collar, Drag Race's Bimini and The Traitors winner Harry Clark. Along the way several have voluntarily withdrawn, but on tonight's episode Harry left both the Directing Staff and viewers enraged after he was caught 'cutting corners' and lying. During a challenge the group were tasked with doing 20 burpees, however it was quickly noticed that Harry had only bothered to do half. So far on the show the former British Army engineer, who left the forces two months before filming on SAS began, had only passed one challenge. When being interrogated at the end of the episode the 24-year-old was called out for his shady actions by Chief Instructor Billy Billingham and Foxy (Jason Fox). The pair had been going through the day's events, when it was raised that Harry had failed in leading his team. They went on to say he was 'bluffing' things and had also lied about doing the burpees required of him. 'His integrity and honesty stinks to a point of it being unacceptable,' Billy declared. Harry was then hauled in to meet with the DS after they reviewed footage that proved he'd not completed the exercise task. He was then asked about being a team player and if he 'cut corners', claims he denied. The DS then made him watch the footage himself and count out the number of burpees he'd done in total. The reality star then claimed he'd stopped early because he was 'slow and letting his team down' – a response that enraged Foxy. 'Are you trying to pull the wool over my eyes? I asked you to do 20. You've just sat there as an ex-military man and spoken about honesty, integrity and how you do your best and don't cut corners. Do you think I'm an idiot,' he said. Slamming the table and making Harry flinch, Foxy told Harry to be honest, before he and Billy called in the guard. Harry was then made to stand in front of his fellow recruits and admit his deception, before he was ordered to hand in his armband and was kicked off the show. Soon after, many viewers weighed in on what had unfolded. 'That is a humiliating way for Harry to leave. Making him count when both he and they know he'd cheated was a masterstroke,' Charlotte posted on X.

'Ironic, the very skill that won Harry the whole game on The Traitors was his entire downfall on SAS,' Kirsty shared. 'Harry is unbelievable – still trying to cover his tracks even after being found out! Thought Billy and Chris were going to explode!' Angela added. Others called it 'harsh but fair' to boot him. Seemingly not concerned about what he'd been caught doing, on Monday Harry posted a video of himself exercising on Instagram, writing: 'Practicing my burpees because apparently I can't do them.' Speaking ahead of the show premiering, Harry said he signed up to 'test' himself'. However, when asked to sum up his experience on the show, he explained: 'It was confusing because the course broke me physically and mentally. But that was actually the kick I needed and the experience I needed at that time. More Trending 'It was definitely a growing point for me. That's what I've matured from, what's taught me that not everything goes perfectly to plan. 'So yeah, I would say it's confusing because of the amount of emotions I felt. I felt every single emotion you can feel from a TV show, on that course!' After deceiving his way through The Traitors, Harry took home £95,150 in the 2024 season of the BBC game show.

Celebrity SAS star axed from Channel 4 show after 'bluffing' during challenge
Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins has been thrown into chaos as one of the stars has been booted off the course after being caught out in new scenes Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins has descended into chaos after BBC favourite Harry Clark was axed for cheating. In tonight's (August 11) instalment of the Channel 4 programme, marking the series' midpoint, the surviving celebrities once more faced gruelling tasks under the watchful eyes of stern instructors Mark "Billy" Billingham, Jason "Foxy" Fox, Rudy Reyes, and Chris Oliver. But things took a dire turn for 24-year-old Harry, who shot to stardom after his spectacular victory on The Traitors in 2024, as all the directing staff questioned his dedication following his dishonesty during a trust-based exercise. Jason explained: "I was putting pressure on six (Harry) because he wasn't really applying himself. He was saying the odd word and I was just applying pressure, applying pressure." Chief Instructor Billy confessed: "He was there but not really as a leader and he didn't contribute anything. He made me feel you he was just f****** bluffing it." He went on: "I gave him burpees and I stood right behind him and I started counting and he deliberately did ten." An exasperated Chris interjected: "And he stood up there smiling like a Cheshire Cat after doing half the reps. I think he is taking the p*** out of us." Billy concluded: "His integrity and honestly stinks, to the point for me it's unexpectable. That's how I feel right now" Doubting Harry's dedication to the programme, the DS chose to examine the footage from the burpee test to verify whether the celebrity had properly fulfilled the exercise. Their suspicions proved correct - Harry had indeed cheated, managing only 10 repetitions, and the squad's displeasure was evident. Senior staff summoned him for a grilling session, questioning his abilities and what he'd gained from the experience. Yet when quizzed about whether he ever takes shortcuts or cheats, he faced a stern rebuke as the commanding officers produced CCTV evidence showing him dodging several burpees after being commanded to perform 20 consecutively. Compelled to view the recording and tally his actual repetitions, Harry endured harsh condemnation. Harry was subsequently made to confront his teammates and confess to his dishonesty and deception. The situation then escalated dramatically, leaving everyone stunned when they announced Harry's dismissal from the programme. Billy glared down at Harry and bellowed: "Number six hand in your arm band to the DS now!" Harry appeared crestfallen as personnel escorted him away from view. Speaking to the camera he revealed: "The worst possible way for me to leave the course is if they withdraw me for being so crap, that would be really embarrassing." He continued: "It doesn't matter how far you get knocked down, as long as I can say I took every opportunity with both hands, then at least I can say what a ride I've had and be happy."

Celebrity SAS star Harry Clark gets brutal telling off by chiefs who mock looks
EXCLUSIVE: The Traitors winner Harry Clark receives a brutal telling off from chief leaders on tonight's Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins - after he comments on his appearance Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins star Harry Clark has mocked his appearance once again in tonight's episode of the hit Channel 4 reality series. Harry, 24, found fame overnight following his triumphant win on The Traitors in 2024, but he has taken the brave step to join the recruits led by no-nonsense chiefs Mark "Billy" Billingham, Jason "Foxy" Fox, Rudy Reyes, and Chris Oliver. The reality TV star has jumped into the experience alongside the likes of Chloe Burrows, Tasha Ghouri, Louie Spence, and Rebecca Loos for this year's series, and while he's found it tough mentally, Harry has proved himself as quite the resilient recruit so far. It comes after Love Island star Chloe revealed the real reason she suddenly quit the show. In tonight's episode, viewers will see Harry heavily focused as the chief staff call him in for an interrogation talk after a challenge based on trusting your fellow recruits. With military experience under his belt before his reality TV breakthrough, Harry was grilled about his skills and what he has taken from his experience. However, when asked if he ever cuts corners or has cheated, he's faced with a telling off as the chiefs pull out CCTV footage of him skipping a number of burpees after being ordered to do 20 in row. After being forced to watch the footage and count how many burpees he actually did, Harry is faced with intense criticism. Earlier in the episode, Harry joked about not being able to grow facial hair as he spoke to his fellow recruits about the fact they had not looked at themselves in the mirror in nearly a week. "Do you know what I just deeped yeah? We haven't looked at ourselves in the mirror in like four days," he said. "I haven't had facial hair since I was like 16. I'm clean shaven every day but do you know what's nice? I have like a proper Italian mustache." It's not the first time Harry has spoken about his appearance on the show. In episode two, the former Traitors star admitted that he felt less fit than a lot of his fellow recruits due to the fact he had gained some weight after shooting to stardom. Harry admitted that his new glitzy lifestyle of attending events with endless food and drink has changed the way he looks after he scooped the £95,150 cash prize on the BBC show. The star has been documenting his health journey with inspiring posts on Instagram over the last few months. In December, he told his followers he had overhauled his lifestyle in an effort to shift the pounds and ditch his 'chubby bunny' physique. He later impressed fans with his buff body as he uploaded snaps from the gym in a slideshow on social media. "Life isn't slowing down and I'm not either, hope you enjoy my random post thanks luv u xoxox,' Harry captioned the post. In the photos, the reality star could be seen posing shirtless in a bathroom mirror while flexing his muscles, as well as snaps during his workout at the gym, and a brief video of him running. Harry shared photos documenting his body overhaul, and included a before and after snap to highlight how far he has come. '1st December reminder to myself. Also, remember to always look at how far you've come! "The first photo is me currently sat around 85kg's feeling like nothing's really changed, then the second photo is me in august on holiday at 100+kg. People always say to me they swear I never needed to looe weight before, however the proof is in the pudding, I was a chubby bunny,' he wrote. 'Mad to think it's just the start, who knows where I'll be next August. Hope everyone's had a good week, I'm currently deeping the fact this time next week I'll be 24 which is mad, but what a year 23 has been,' he candidly shared.
