The final episode of series three of The Traitors pulls in a record live audience of 7.4 million.

The third series of The Traitors concluded on Friday night with the highest live ratings of the show to date, according to early figures.

The episode, which saw two of the Faithfuls share the £94,600 prize pot, drew an average of 7.4 million viewers for BBC One between 8.30pm and 9.40pm.

The figure - up 0.5m on the series two finale - is expected to rise significantly in the coming weeks as catch-up figures are included.

Series three's first episode has already been watched by over 10 million, meaning that the final is highly likely to exceed that number.

The show will return later this year with the first edition of a celebrity spinoff, while the fourth series will be filmed this summer for broadcast in early 2026.
