As rumours circulate, fans and bookies alike are placing their bets on who will compete in a brand new version of a beloved show.

The Traitors has proved its worth as a popular programme, where strangers are pitted against each other to complete a set of missions as a team, but as the name suggests, traitors are lurking within.

The team at OLBG have released the latest odds and predictions on who could appear on the new Celebrity The Traitors series, and Tom Daley is now the favourite with a 1/3 chance of appearing on the Celebrity Traitors series. One of our own, Blackpool-born Zoe Ball is also one of the favourites.

Leading the way in the odds, Olympian Tom Daley has a 75% implied probability he will appear on the show. Zoe has a 14.3%, as does Jonathan Ross.

More surprisingly perhaps, Courtney Cox is second favourite with a 33.3% probability after suggested names were reported in the past week. Third is Gary Lineker with 25% and fourth, Rylan Clark with 20%.

Jake Ashton, Entertainment Betting Expert at OLBG has commented on the latest Celebrity The Traitors predictions: "Olympian Tom Daley leads the latest odds to appear in Celebrity Traitors with his name one of a few that The Sun claims will be heading into the famous Scottish Highlands castle.

"Further big names that feature in the market include Courteney Cox and Piers Morgan with the BBC expected to go all out for the new series!"

The celebrity version of The Traitors was announced by the BBC in August at the Edinburgh TV Festival. The show will be a nine-part series but there has yet to be a confirmation when it will be recorded or when viewers can watch.

Series Three of The Traitors has already been filmed in Scotland and it's expected that we will see it air around New Year's Day on the BBC.
