THE CELEBRITY TRAITORS: UNCLOAKED LAST ONE THURSDAY, 10.10PM, BBC2 ENTERTAINMENT

Following four weeks of banishments, betrayals and bluffs, the scene is set for a dramatic final confrontation as BBC1's The Celebrity Traitors draws to a close with an extended 70-minute episode.

The nine-part spin-off from BAFTA-winning hit The Traitors has seen a starry lineup including Sir Stephen Fry, Jonathan Ross, Charlotte Church and Clare Balding join host Claudia Winkleman at Ardross Castle in the Scottish Highlands to play the game of deceit and deduction in a quest to win up to £100,000 for charity. But will Team Faithful triumph at the last stand, or can the treacherous Traitors manipulate their way to victory?

Here, in an exclusive interview with TV Times, comedian Ed Gamble, 39, presenter of companion series The Celebrity Traitors: Uncloaked, looks back at some of the show's most memorable moments...

What was your reaction when you first saw the 19 names taking part in this series?

I was hugely excited - I think it's the best cast list there has ever been for a celebrity reality show. I keep reminding myself not to take it for granted, as there's that initial novelty factor of, 'Oh, Stephen Fry's walking around the castle, there's Celia Imrie, there's Tom Daley,' and then you sort of get used to it. So you have to go, 'No, come on, this has never happened before!'
