Mi-Amigo — Sat, 01 Jan 2022 14:17:26 GMT

The maddest show on TV returns on Sat 01 Jan 2022!!

Yes, the Masked Singer is back on ITV for the third series tonight at 7pm, with second show tomorrow.

The show features 12 celebrities in disguise and a panel [and we the viewers] tries to work out from the performances and clues who is behind the mask.

This year`s Masked Singers are:

Chandelier

Bagpipes

Lionfish

Doughnuts

Traffic Cone

Panda

Rockhopper

Mushroom

Firework

Poodle

Snow Leopard

Robobunny

Comedian and presenter, Joel Dommett is back as host of the show.

The panel for series 3, returning to judge, are Jonathan Ross; Rita Ora, Davina McCall and Mo Gilligan.

I`ll be watching. Will previous Masked Singer viewers, inc @Cleoriff @gmarkj @sheepdog , and anyone else be watching ???

I will for sure @Mi-Amigo. The Sky box is set to record. Also on tomorrow night (much to Ray's disgust😂).

Just look at that Snow Leopard.😍

I think the costumes are better than ever.

Really looking forward to it. Doubt we will have a reveal tonight. Don't they usually wait until all have sung?

Definitely be there at 7pm! I mean the competition is the last 15 mins of Crystal Palace v Watford or the painful Doctor Who New Year special with worse costumes and acting. A bit surprised at Rita Ora coming back after her indiscretions but lets hope the guest judges make another appearance as well.

sheepdog — Sat, 01 Jan 2022 16:37:11 GMT

@jonsie yes, currently watching the Spurs v Watford game on ~~teletext~~ BBC's text commentary so got mixed up.

There's no one more mixed up than me 😉

What a great start to this years show!

Costumes are better than ever.

Usual routine...two v each other in a sing off. (Has anyone got a list of songs as I'm just guessing here. Knew them all except the last one)

First couple were...

Mushroom v Robobunny

Mushroom. Sang Quiet by Bjork. Although people thought it was female and I ignore the judges as they guess stupid names I kept thinking it was Judge Rob Rinder (well there was a gavel) Also a put on accent

moving between North and Irish

RoboBunny. Sang Saving All my Love -Whitney Houston.

Really weird. Started singing as a male then went into a female singing voice. Can't list clues but I thought it was Tom Daley.

Robobunny won that round

Doughnut v Chandelier.

Doughnut. Eye of the Tiger ..Foreigner. Not a singer, Clues, jockey, football, dancer? Michael Owen?

Chandelier. Sang Crazy by Patsy Kline. Good voice but being 'masked' I thought. Judges guessed Jane McDonald, Debbie McGee, Rachel Riley or Elaine Paige (as if!)

Winner Doughnut (Wasn't my winner!!)

Lionfish v Firework.

Lionfish (very bravely) sang Nessun Dorma. Quite a good voice but no idea who it could be? Someone tweeted James Blunt (lol)

Firework (Was the song Domino? We have to guess so no idea, not my era 😂) Clues.. Pocket rocket, Fashion

Mel C was a name which cropped up a lot. I thought it may have been AJ Odudu from SCD.

Winner Lionfish.

So the unmasking is between Mushroom, Chandelier and Firework.

I didn't think we would unmask tonight either!!

Firework and Mushroom saved.

Chandelier to be unmasked..... Spoiler for those who recorded it!

It was Heather Small. Hells teeth! She has a great voice normally.

Re: The Masked Singer 2022

Cleoriff — Sat, 01 Jan 2022 22:48:14 GMT

Just checking. Domino which was the song from Chandelier. Apparently It's by Jessie J.

Unless we can find an official song list for this series, I won't keep guessing.

I did double check and Spotify put out a full song list for the last series but it was after the show had finished, which isn't much good to anyone. 😂

Re: The Masked Singer 2022

pgn — Sun, 02 Jan 2022 09:45:43 GMT

Sean D Leary, famous Irish electrician 😉

Didn't watch the show, but the costumes above made me smile.

Bagpipes too close to Bagpuss, and looks like what you might get if you crossed a Womble with a Clanger 🤣

Re: The Masked Singer 2022

Mi-Amigo — Sun, 02 Jan 2022 09:50:13 GMT

Thanks @Cleoriff for the write-up.

Great start to the series. Love the outfits. Performances were entertaining.

I`m gonna make a mad guess at a couple of the celebrities - Donuts is a footballer, possibly David Seaman, and Firework might be Fleur East ??

Looking forward to tonights show.

@Mi-Amigo

Does Digital spy give you the songs? Really pushed me yesterday. Good job Ray (the DJ) was sat next to me last night. Although I knew the songs I posted, Ray is one of those people who can 'Name That Tune in 1 note' 😂

Except the one sang by Firework. He just said 'He doesn't do modern stuff' (well his disco was called Timewarp, so you get the gist)

Revealing Spoiler now as too bad if folk haven't watched it. It was Heather Small from M People. She has a great distinctive voice and made reference to the fact she had to try and change it for the show.

Pretty gutted she's gone if honest. I thought the worse of the night was Doughnut.

Re: The Masked Singer 2022

Mi-Amigo — Sun, 02 Jan 2022 10:38:09 GMT

Just checked DigitalSpy, @Cleoriff

Poster posted a poll of songs sung on show at 20.10pm last night

https://forums.digitalspy.com/discussion/2421958/episode-1-performance-of-the-night

so, if done for each show would be useful.

I think there was a caption [maybe subtitles ?] when each performance started last night with song/singer.

I`ll check that out tonight and DigitalSpy and hopefully will be able to give info in write-up after the show.

I was surprised Chandalier got voted off last night. Wasn`t the worse performance in my opinion.

Pleased Robobunny and Mushroom still in it.

Re: The Masked Singer 2022

Cleoriff — Sun, 02 Jan 2022 12:13:20 GMT

@Mi-Amigo

If you look at the time they posted it was ten past 8. Then you have to rely on the same person posting that list. Not going to be very confident of that source each time it's on.

Interesting though that he has Chandelier scoring higher than Doughnut.

I was following Masked Singer twitter feed last night and although it was good, they never mentioned one song. So that will give me difficulties.

The caption you mention only said the name not the song. Silly really. If its the Masked SINGER we should have the song given.

Re: The Masked Singer 2022

Cleoriff — Sun, 02 Jan 2022 21:34:07 GMT

I have the songs from tonight @Mi-Amigo

Rock Hopper sang Higher Love by Stevie Winwood

Traffic Cone sang Never Gonna Give You Up By Rick Astley

Poodle sang Rocket Man by Elton John

Re: The Masked Singer 2022

Mi-Amigo — Sun, 02 Jan 2022 21:42:47 GMT

Good show tonight.

I liked performances by Traffic Cone; Poodle [my favourite of the night]; and Bagpipes.

Didn`t guess Snow Leopard was Gloria Hunniford; think Poodle might be Paul O`Grady; head scratching over a couple of others...

Re: The Masked Singer 2022

Cleoriff — Sun, 02 Jan 2022 22:06:16 GMT

@Mi-Amigo

The right person went tonight but what a great costume. Snow Leopard, one of my 4 favourite big cats.

My favourite performances were Rockhopper and Poodle.

Re: The Masked Singer 2022

Cleoriff — Sat, 08 Jan 2022 20:29:02 GMT

Week 3. The Masked Singer Does The Movies.

Those appearing tonight are:

Firework

Mushroom

Lionfish

Doughnut

Robobunny

Firework- Performed song from FAME (Fame)

Does sound Northern. Sang quite well but not a singer in real life? I'm guessing Michelle Keegan

Mushroom- Performed There are Worse Things I could Do...from Grease

Ok...Maybe Kym Marsh

Lionfish...Sang I will Always Love You from The Bodyguard.

Not sure if Lionfish is male or female, so maybe a drag queen..Or James Blunt 😂

Doughnut: Spice Up your Life from Spice World.

A lot of clues pointing to a footballer or football pundit. Can't sing that's for sure

Maybe Chris Kamara or Michael Owen (although I doubt Michael would do this.

Robobunny Sang Shallow From A Star Is Born.

Sang Ok but not a singer.

The vote for the final two and they were

Firework and Lionfish. (who keeps putting Doughnut through??!!)

Firework sang Your sex is on Fire It was Excellent.

Lionfish (No idea of song) Certainly not as good as Firework

Lionfish was eliminated. WHAT A SHOCK (For me) when the mask came off!!

WILL YOUNG (who I love. Voted for him in Pop Idol etc) All I can say is he sang well when the mask came off!

Re: The Masked Singer 2022

Cleoriff — Sat, 08 Jan 2022 20:30:57 GMT

The remaining contestants will sing Love Songs next week.

Re: The Masked Singer 2022

Mi-Amigo — Sun, 09 Jan 2022 09:40:01 GMT

Thank you for write up @Cleoriff

I was surprised Donuts was not in the bottom two. Of the two who had to do the sing-off, I thought Firework was better than Lionfish, that said I was shocked when Lionfish`s identity was revealed.

As to the other celebrities, I think Donut is Chris Kamara [football clues], but still confused as to who others might be. Pleased Mushroom and Robobunny still in it - after last night`s performance.

Loking forward to next week`s Love Songs Masked Singer
