Since our social life has become so restricted, has anyone else found themselves watching all sorts of programmes they never before considered. I’m so entertained by the Masked Singer and can’t wait to discover who is Blob!

I think Robin is the fella from JLS - Ashton (or maybe it’s Aston) Merrygold.

Lilypops Sat 30-Jan-21 23:33:01

I can’t wait to find out who is Harlequin.

Viking has been revealed to be Morten Harket from AHA

Lemongrove, the person in Viking, Morten Harket, is from Aha. Take Me On. I thought it was him initially but then he sang his own song last week and confused us. Double bluff!

Oh, sorry Alisa, I hadn’t realised we’d gone to a page 2!

grandmajet Sun 31-Jan-21 08:53:34

Harlequin gives me the creeps.

I think sausage is Sheridan Smith. Her voice is so versatile. I thought Blob may be Lennie Henry.

I think Sausage is Sheridan Smith - pretending to be a Stacy Solomon cockney. Jane Horrocks comes to mind as a good mimic (wasn’t she Little Voice). Well done everyone who guessed Sir Lenny.

I’ve thought for a couple of weeks Sausage is Stacey Solomon. Last night confirmed it for me with the mention of a camper van as she recently acquired one. Unless of course that clue was a bluff.

I m with you grannynammywhammy ( what a mouthful)
The only ones I really thought I knew were Stacey Solomon and Lenny Henry the rest were all I bit of mad guesswork

I think Badger might be Carl Fogarty the retired world champion motor cyclist.

He was on I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here a couple of years ago. He was a popular character with the other jungle contestants and did sing and lark around on the show.

I love this but I'm afraid, when the celebrities make their guesses, I have no idea who the people they talk about are!

henetha Sun 31-Jan-21 10:50:38

I guessed Blob correctly! The first time I have got one right.
I've no idea who any of the others are.
I love this show, the costumes, the music, - a lovely escape from reality at the moment.

DanniRae Sun 31-Jan-21 14:41:27

I am really enjoying this show and would definitely have watched it even if there wasn't a pandemic - It's perfect Saturday night viewing! grin

Keeleklogger Sun 31-Jan-21 14:57:41

Sausage is definitely Joss Stone, last night in the clue on the desk were burning some Joss Sticks

Keeleklogger Sun 31-Jan-21 15:01:40

My guesses for what they are worth are

Badger is Ne-Yo
Sausage is Joss Stone
Harlequin is Gabrielle
Dragon is Sue Perkins
Robin is Aston Merrygold

LullyDully Sun 31-Jan-21 18:28:27

Sheridan Smith was in the Royal Variety Show in Blackpool last year.

BlueBelle Sun 31-Jan-21 18:33:08

Who’s NeYo ?

Alioop Sun 31-Jan-21 18:41:49

Ne-yo is an American singer /songwriter, he had a big hit with a song called "Closer".
I didn't watch last series, but have got into this one a couple of weeks ago and enjoying it. I think Sausage is Stacey Dooley and think Robin is Ashton from JLS. I'm now going nuts thinking Badger is Keith Lemon. Told you, I'm bonkers!

grandmajet Sat 06-Feb-21 18:34:42

Getting excited for semi final tonight!

grandmajet Sat 06-Feb-21 19:05:29

Matt Lucas on the panel, he should be fun.

MissAdventure Sat 06-Feb-21 19:27:05

I think badger is Bradley Walsh and harlequin is Trisha who had a chat show. No idea why.
First time I've watched.

BlueBelle Sat 06-Feb-21 19:40:13

Sausage has always been Stacey Soloman for me but I don’t know any of the others
Badger intrigues me I hope it’s not Keith Lemon can’t stand the bloke

MissAdventure Sat 06-Feb-21 19:43:35

I wondered if sausage could be patsy palmer.
I'm not good at knowing celebrities.

MissAdventure Sat 06-Feb-21 19:45:23

What a weird conversation.grin
