We\u2019ve already spoken to one of the gold-masked, cloaked figures that appear throughout the show and you can check that out here.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are five hidden Traitors roles you may not know, that make the show possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These crew members are dedicated to manufacturing the show\u2019s atmosphere through environmental and psychological manipulation. They would make the round table room as cold as possible by having the Air Con on \u2018full blast\u2019 to make the room and the contestants inside \u2018panic driven\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The contestants are also made to listen to \u2018The Hanging Tree\u2019 from The Hunger Games soundtrack. They have to listen to it in its entirety, before the start of the round table every night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Behind every mission the players do, there\u2019s detailed brainstorming and contribution that goes into their development. The missions producer makes logistical considerations, where they work alongside camera, SFX, and art development crew members to produce missions that are fun and engaging for both the players and the viewing audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The BBC will invest "at least 70%" of The Traitors' production budget in Scotland, and "draw significantly on local programme makers" to produce the hit reality show.

The changes come after it emerged that 70.8% of job roles on the show were filled by people working in London. pic.twitter.com\/GQfgfz8AtB<\/a><\/p>— The Traitors HQ (@the_traitors_) May 27, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote>
