The new year opened with a dramatic return to Ardross Castle as The Traitors launched its fourth season with an episode designed to keep viewers closely watching every move. The premiere episode, which aired on January 1, introduced a fresh group of 22 strangers stepping into the grand Scottish castle, each arriving with the same goal but very different strategies. From the outset, the series made it clear that this season intends to challenge trust, loyalty, and perception in new ways.

Adding an unexpected twist, the opening episode revealed the existence of a Secret Traitor, a role kept hidden not only from the other Traitors but also from the audience at home.  The first mission unfolded quickly, and the episode ended on a tense cliffhanger with three contestants placed at risk of being murdered, setting the stage for the continuation on January 2. All details in the premiere were presented as part of the official broadcast of The Traitors season four.
