    2 Popular BBC TV Shows Renewed Until 2030
    -----------------------------------------
    The BBC has confirmed the future of two of its popular reality
    competition shows. The broadcaster recently announced new
    multi-year deals that will keep both series on air for several
    more seasons, extending their run well into the next decade.

    BBC renewed The Traitors and The Celebrity Traitors for more
    seasons
    The BBC has renewed The Traitors and The Celebrity Traitors
    with a new three-year deal that will keep both shows on BBC One
    and BBC iPlayer until at least 2030.

    Outgoing BBC director-general Tim Davie announced the agreement
    during a speech to the Royal Television Society. The deal
    begins with The Traitors Season 5 and plans additional seasons
    through 2030.

    The renewal ensures the main series will reach at least
    Season 8. The BBC has scheduled Seasons 5, 6, 7, and 8 for 2027,
    2028, 2029, and 2030, respectively. The BBC will also continue
    The Celebrity Traitors with Season 2 arriving later in 2026 and
    additional seasons planned through 2029.

    The Celebrity Traitors debuted on BBC One and iPlayer in October
    2025, averaging 14.9 million viewers. Its finale reached
    15.4 million viewers, making it the best-performing
    entertainment episode in Britain in nearly a decade, according
    to the BBC. The fourth season of The Traitors recorded a
    12.5 million 28-day average audience.

    Kalpna Patel-Knight, Head of Entertainment Commissioning at the
    BBC, said: "We are proud to remain faithful to The Traitors and
    The Celebrity Traitors until 2030 and wanted to say a big thank
    you to the outstanding team at Studio Lambert Scotland for
    bringing it to screen."

    Stephen Lambert, CEO of Studio Lambert, said: "The Traitors has
    become a genuine television phenomenon across the world, but
    especially in the UK, and we're thrilled to continue the journey
    with the BBC."

    IDTV, an All3Media company in the Netherlands, created the
    format and developed it with the RTL Creative Unit. Studio
    Lambert produces the UK versions, and All3Media International
    manages global format and tape sales worldwide. The production
    films the franchise at the Ardross Castle estate.
