Celebrity Traitors returns next week for a second round of deception and amateur detective work

Hosted by Claudia Winkleman, the Traitors castle will welcome 21 new celebrities on Thursday, as a group of famous "faithfuls" attempts to work out which among them are - and perhaps, always have been - "traitors", secretly murdering contestants each night

Last year's show provided Bafta's most memorable TV moment - an award voted for by the British public - when traitor Alan Carr broke down in tears at the end of the final having bluffed his way to a win by hiding in plain sight

Let's have a stab in the dark, then, at who might follow in Jonathan Ross's footsteps as this year's "big dog", and who, like singer Cat Burns, could fly under the radar

The comedy troupe

If Carr was the star of last year's show, then perhaps his fellow TV funnymen could be the ones to watch this time around

Naturally good readers of a room and skilled at misdirection, comedians can inject some comic relief into those tense roundtable moments
