It is expected to attract mass ratings.
A TV source said: “So far, Uncloaked has featured celebrity guests like Sophie Ellis-Bextor and Stacey Dooley, but bosses know the cast themselves are the big draw so are amping it up as a huge reunion special for Friday night.
“It means fans can sit down to a whopping 110 minutes of Traitors action – 70 for the main show and 40 for the spin-off.”
It comes as plans are unveiled for the finale, with the teams taking to the Scottish skies in a helicopter for the “bigger than ever missions”.
And host Claudia Winkleman will be dressed the part.
She said of the black fluffy coat she appears in: “I wear an outfit that is so nuts.
“I’ve never tried mushrooms but I imagine it feels like this.
“The outfit, the location and what was happening, and then it started raining.
“Imagine a sea monster meets Princess Anne and then they go to a golf sale.
“With a nod of Jane McDonald.”
