News by : (Radio Times) -

It's been a little over a month since the celebrity line-up first stepped foot in the Scottish castle, and among them was David Olusoga, who has now managed to make it to the final as a Faithful.

Now all that remains to be seen is whether David, alongside fellow Faithfuls Joe Marler and Nick Mohammed, will be able to sniff out Traitors Cat Burns and Alan Carr and secure a share of the £100,000 prize pot for a charity of their choice.

Read on for everything you need to know about the historian ahead of tonight's final episode.

Who is David Olusoga?

Job: Historian and author

David Olusoga is a historian, author and filmmaker who first began his career as a researcher on 1999 BBC series Western Front.

Over his career, Olusoga has presented the likes of Black and British: A Forgotten History, A House Through Time and Britain's Forgotten Slave Owners, which awarded him a BAFTA in the Specialist Factual category in 2016.

Why did David sign up for The Celebrity Traitors?

Olusoga said that The Celebrity Traitors is the only reality game show he would ever consider taking part in, describing it as having something "special about it".

"This show is not like anything else I've been asked to do. So many people I know love this show. People who wouldn't normally watch anything else like this love The Traitors. Once I started considering the idea, it felt like it could be a really interesting experience," he told the BBC.

Does David want to be a Faithful or Traitor?

"I think there's a terrible risk that I'd forget that I was in deep cover. That's the reason why I'm not a spy. It would be an impossible task remembering that you're not who you're saying you are.

Celebrity Traitors begins on Wednesday 8th October at 9pm on BBC One and iPlayer. The Traitors seasons 1-3 are available to stream on BBC iPlayer.
