Probably the best reality show since Big Brother (when it was good).
22 people are pitted against each other. Three are traitors and the others are faithfuls. The faithfuls have to try and vote out the traitors while the traitors try to remain undetected. At the end of the show if all the traitors are voted out then the faithfuls split the prize pool between themselves. If just one traitor is left at the end then they take all the money for their self.
It's a bit like watching a murder mystery unfold. The viewer know who the traitors are so they can watch them plot, backstab and 'murder' whilst forming bonds and friendships.
I didn't expect to enjoy this programme, im not much for reality TV but this had me gripped early on. The final episode was fantastic to watch. You really find yourself drawn in and hope that whoever you want to win manages it.
If this sounds like the kind of thing you like watching then give it a go. I don't think many people will be disappointed.

Ordinary people compete for the change to win £120,000.
Full of twists and turns, this has been the most compulsive gameshow on the box for a very long time.
I love the originality of it, it's absolutely compulsive viewing, I didn't like the look of it initially, but I ended up binge watching it, it's one of those shows that you can't help but get drawn into.
So some of the challenges are a little irritating, and some of the acting is a little bit dodgy at times, but those are minor irritations, it's been the first show myself and family have all sat down to watch together for quite some time.
Claudia is definitely one of the best presenters out there, and she's marvellous and understated at the same time.
Love it, 9/10.

My boss kept asking why I wasn't watching this and insisted I get onto it so we could talk about it in our work catch ups.
I resisted, because I thought reality tv competitions had been done to death and so why would I bother?
I started watching on Saturday afternoon (yesterday) because I thought I'd give it a go and see what the fuss was about.
I watched eight episodes one after the other, even though it was nuts and I couldn't understand for one minute the reasoning behind anyone's theories!
I've watched another episode this afternoon and am gutted I have to wait until Tuesday for the next one!
It's more addictive than nicotine.
Everyone cries. Nothing makes sense.
It's brilliant.

Just an amazing emotional experiment into human behaviour. Loved every single second of this. By the end of the series I felt like I personally knew all of the remaining contestants. I hated the 4 day gap over the weekend waiting for the next set of episodes. I thought the challenges were really high quality. It can't be easy to set physical challenges that are appropriate for such a diverse set of contestants, but somehow the BBC have done it. Just a phenomenal pre-Christmas viewing experience. I really hope this gets renewed for a second serious. Claudia Winkelman was great. Clearly moved by the final results.
What a show. Love it. Full of action and psychological play
The worst bit wierdly is missions for the money which to me has no impact at all.
But the show is immense and exciting and fun.
Claudia is a perfect host for this show with her whacky personality I never watch one show after another as got a short attention span so need variety.
But i watched 3 in a row and then 2 today one catch up and one live.
One of best of shows ive seen for a while.
Love the tension between competitors as not knowing who is a faithful and a traitor.
Funny how each night think oh they will keep off this person and then a total different person chosen showing the insecurities this game is bringing up to people in game.
But makes a damn good show.
Love it a defo 10.
