Richard Osman appears to accidentally reveal the launch date for series 2 of the BBC reality game show “The Celebrity Traitors.” During a live edition of his podcast, “The Rest Is Entertainment,” hosted with Marina Hyde, Osman tells the audience that the new series begins on 23 September.
The outlets report that Osman describes the date as “absolutely embargoed” yet mentions it during the broadcast. In the same segment, he also previews what viewers can expect from the forthcoming season, describing the new series as “quite intense.” The reports attribute the leak to an off-the-cuff moment on air, rather than an official announcement from the BBC.
Across the coverage, the focus stays on the same incident: Osman’s on-air slip of information about the start date for the next run of the show. There are no major differences in the core details reported, with the emphasis instead on the setting of the live podcast and Osman’s comments about the intensity of the new series.
