Richard Osman reveals a season of The Traitors was scrapped

Television presenter Richard Osman has revealed that an entire international series of the reality competition ‘The Traitors’ was scrapped and never aired.

Speaking during a conversation with podcaster Jack Dean, Osman claimed that a specific discussion held at length within the show’s castle setting led to the production being unable to continue. While Osman did not specify the territory involved or the exact nature of the conversation, he noted that he might not be permitted to share further details regarding the incident.

Osman also discussed the production process, noting that producers monitor contestant behavior and can intervene if participants begin to deviate from the intended direction of the game.
