The series was brilliantly produced by Kite Entertainment and the collaboration between Kite and RT really paid off, reminding viewers that our remit is to entertain as well as inform. The Traitors Ireland would have been nothing without our brilliant Players who threw themselves completely into the game and distracted and entertained the country for the month of September. There was someone for everyone in the cast and we're really proud of the fact that the audience responded whole-heartedly to that.
Se n Mac Giolla Ph draig, Managing Editor of Video, RT , said, The Traitors Ireland is a series that everyone involved can be very proud of. We've been particularly delighted to see the strength of talent across the different disciplines that worked for Kite Entertainment to produce the series. It really is a world class production. We've also been really pleased to see the passion for and dedication to the series from teams across RT from the Oliver Callan show on RT Radio 1 to the team in RT sales; and from promotions, marketing, social media and communications to technology who all worked really hard to bring our audiences the best possible The Traitors Ireland experience. We re also delighted at the response of audiences to The Traitors Ireland Uncloaked, a co-production between Kite Entertainment and the RT Lab. Both series have set a new benchmark for collaboration between companies in the independent sector and RT and we're really excited about the potential in this as we continue to build on our offering to our audiences.
With dramatic gameplay, shocking reveals and a companion show that delivered extra layers of intrigue, The Traitors Ireland has kept the nation guessing and watching.
