RTE shares air date for the Traitors Ireland
RTE has confirmed the Traitors Ireland will air at the end of this month. The Traitors Ireland will officially premiere on RTÉ One and RTÉ Player on Sunday, August 31. Host Siobhán McSweeney will be in charge of the 'chaos, suspicion and stylish skulduggery.' RTE also released the trailer for the hit show, teasing shadows stirring in the dark, 'where loyalty is fragile, betrayal is currency and suspicion is inevitable.' The Traitors Ireland is filmed on the grounds of Slane Castle in Co Meath. The show centres around a group of strangers who are hoping to compete to win €50,000 without getting murdered or banished (in the game, of course). The twist? The Traitors walk amongst them, sowing doubt and deceit at every turn. RTE said: 'Expect conniving glances over banquet breakfasts, whispers in corridors and enough drama to make even the most loyal viewer question their instincts. 'As tension rises and alliances crumble, viewers will be left asking: who's lying, who's loyal and who's next?' It comes after Kevin McGahern was last week announced as the host of the spin-off series, The Traitors Ireland Uncloaked. Uncloaked will take fans of The Traitors Ireland deeper into Slane Castle with dissection of the episodes and exclusive access to the banished and murdered players. Filmed in RTÉ Limerick, each episode will feature an exclusive interview with the banished or murdered player. RTE added: "Kevin will have celebrity guests from the world of comedy, music, sport, and entertainment, who will give their opinion on the goings on within the castle walls. 'Whether it's their first time tuning in or they're longtime The Traitors fans, guests will share who they're backing, who they suspect, and who they'd banish without hesitation. "Don't miss a moment of the drama, watch The Traitors Ireland: Uncloaked after every episode of The Traitors Ireland, later this year on RTÉ."
