As part of the programme, 24 people are put into a group, but hidden among them are Traitors who have to deceive, manipulate, and "murder" their way to a prize of up to €50,000.

The Faithfuls try to root out the Traitors before it is too late and the three Traitors on the hit show managed to kill off many contestants before the Faithfuls nabbed their first Traitor on Monday night in the form of Eamon.
