Disclaimer: Neither this channel nor this video have any official association with the BBC, Studio Lambert or The Traitors.

Way back in the mists of TV time, way before "The Traitors" became a bona fide TV phenomenon, the BBC made a short series called... TRAITOR. It ran for just one series of five shows, screened every evening for one week in 2004. Blink and you'd have missed it (as many did).

Whilst the premise of the 2004 show is similar - there are Traitors amongst the Faithful (here they're called Citizens) - it is almost unrecognisable compared with everyone's new favourite. No Castles, Cloaks, Clandestine Meetings or Claudia Winkleman here.

Tony Livesey presents a studio-based battle of wits. And absolutely no murders.
