We’re just hours away from the fourth season finale of The Traitors dropping, but fans of the franchise fearful of suffering withdrawal pains, fret not: Peacock has more traitorous content ready to go. In addition to a reunion special dropping tonight, the streamer is also gifting us Yanks season four of Traitors UK, which wrapped its run on the BBC last month with record ratings. All 12 episodes of the Claudia Winkleman-hosted version of the Studio Lambert format will drop on Peacock early Thursday morning (5 a.m. ET, to be precise), allowing faithful viewers to binge-watch the whole season right after the U.S. edition wraps up (or right before if you’ve got Thursday off and nothing else to do).

Unlike Peacock’s take on the format, the main version of Traitors UK features a cast of non-celebrities playing the game rather than a collection of reality stars and other pop culture notables. (The BBC did launch a spin-off with celebrities last fall, and that version has been streaming on Peacock since November.) In addition, NBC has already announced its own all-civilians take on Traitors that’s expected to air on the network (and stream on Peacock) this fall. Now all we need is for Alan Cumming and Winkleman to cross-over on to each other’s versions of the show, or at least swap costume designers for an episode.
