Celebrity Traitors Star Says Chronic Illness Will Make Show 'Challenging'

Hart says the BBC game show comeback will test her body as she manages fatigue and pain from ME/CFS.

  • Comedian Miranda Hart joins the second series of The Celebrity Traitors, premiering Thursday, October 1 on BBC One and BBC iPlayer alongside 20 other celebrities in the psychological competition.
  • Following an extended absence from television due to long-term health issues, Hart said her whole body "relaxed" when offered the role, as she wanted to "jump about like a schoolgirl with joy."
  • The comedian explained the show will be "challenging" on her body; she added, "I'm still living with elements of ME, and that brings fatigue and pain to manage."
  • Participants include actors Michael Sheen and Bella Ramsey, plus comedians James Acaster and Joe Lycett, competing under host Claudia Winkleman in the game of interpersonal deception.
  • Fellow contestant Romesh Ranganathan said he would "twist the knife in my back" if necessary, while Acaster warned comedians might face early suspicion from other players.
