The key facts

- The BBC published a quiz about which role the reader would play in the castle
- The quiz references the playing styles of Michael Sheen, Maya Jama, Romesh Ranganathan and Richard E. Grant
Quiz ahead of the finale
The day before the finale of Celebrity Traitors the BBC News team published an interactive quiz, inviting readers to find out which star of this season they would resemble if they found themselves in the castle. The publication describes several styles of play: leading the group with your own theories, like Michael Sheen; staying in the game through charm, like Maya Jama and Romesh Ranganathan; or sowing chaos, like Richard E. Grant, whom the text bids farewell with an 'RIP' note — meaning his character has already been eliminated from the game.
What is known about the finale
The finale will air on Friday, and, in the BBC's wording, the season's main intrigue will be resolved by then: whether the Traitors will remain undetected until the end or whether the Faithfuls will finally work them out. The quiz is accompanied by a link to a page describing what user data it collects, which is a separate BBC document on information gathering in interactive content.
Context of the series of articles
The quiz is not the only companion piece the BBC has produced for the show. Earlier, the publication released a quiz on which role the reader would take in the castle Traitors (1 October), an analysis of how the soundtrack sets the tone of the series (18 October), and an article about unexpected connections between the Celebrity Traitors contestants (4 October). Thus, the publication of the quiz is part of a series of BBC pieces timed to the current season, rather than a standalone event. It should be noted that the source is a single BBC publication, and no other independent reports about this quiz appear in the available materials.
