CELEBRITY Traitors has been thrown into chaos as a major leak threatened to give away show secrets.
As filming for the star-studded BBC series gets underway, a pap has taken to his TikTok and posted a page of the script.
As a result, he claims the production company has now handed him with a cease and desist letter.
In the video, celebrity photographer Ash explained: “Last week I asked you if you wanted to see a page of the Traitors script.”;
He then proceeded to show his fans a blurry copy of the script.
He continued: “I was read the riot act, I was handed what they call a cease and desist by the production company, they claimed I was breaching their data protection and privacy by being in a public place taking pictures of them filming.
“Potentially they wanted me to leave so they could carry on filming in secret.
“I’ve never dealt with a production company so angry that I was there, it was unreal
“To be honest, the video that I put up was in a bitter attempt that they might see it and just leave me alone because studio Lambeth really did make me feel that I shouldn’t be there.”;
The snapper said he refused to leave and found the whole experience unpleasant.
Despite some difficulty, he admitted he would be returning to shoot Traitors but has not plans to “rush back”;.
A Studio Lambert spokesperson said “No one wants to ruin such a popular show, loved for its surprises, by having photos released which give away storylines. The producers will always put viewers’ enjoyment of the series first and guard against spoilers.”;
It comes after this week during one of the challenge.
They were filmingin the Scottish Highlands with what looked like a Trojan horse.
But producers’ bid to recreate Greece in 700BC was shattered by members of the public.
An insider said: “Because of Scotland’s liberal right-to-roam policies there were quite a number of ramblers and cyclists whizzing past in the background.
“So while they were trying to recreate Greece of 2,700 years ago, someone would suddenly appear in a bobble hat or Lycra and they’d have to start rolling the cameras again.
“Thankfully it didn’t cause too much of a headache and most people saw the funny side of it.”;
The 19 celebs on the show, hosted by, include,,,and.
They have all had to hand over their phones to crew to prevent them from discussing game plans on the show, expected to air in October.
An insider said: “The BBC aren’t taking any chances with the contestants — even though they’re household names.
“They are all holed up in a hotel together but they are being kept apart with a security guard on their floor at all times to make sure they’re not swapping tactics or talking.
“In the normal series of The Traitors, the contestants’ phones are removed and there have been no special measures put in place for the celebs.
“Some of them moaned about not having their phones but the BBC need to be sure they’re not messaging or communicating on social media — so it’s a total ban.
“Instead the BBC have a production phone for the celebs which they can use to make a phone call home, but a member of staff is never far behind.
“The BBC want this series to be as explosive as ever, so they won’t allow any collusion.”;
