Merseyside celeb spotted on ITV's The Masked Singer

The second instalment of ITV's The Masked Singer prompted people to think a Merseyside celeb was behind the Poodle mask.

Hosted by Joel Dommett, the premise of the show involves masked celebrities in elaborate costumes who perform for a panel of judges that try to guess who is behind the performance.

The panel, Mo GIlligan, Rita Ora, Davina McCall and Jonathan Ross, try to guess who the person behind the mask.

Mo thought it was Birkenhead presenter Paul O'Grady after singing a version of Elton John's 'Rocketman'.

And many online agreed, @markpotter9 said: "#TheMaskedSinger Poodle is Paul O Grady."

@imbeckyhappy said: "Poodle is definitely Paul O’Grady."

@nurselinpig said: "Poodle defo PAUL O’GRADY."

@Cara_lennon94 said: "Poodle has to be Paul O'Grady."

Davina said her energy was amazing in the performance of 'Higher Love' and Mo said it could be Aleshia Dixon.

But Rita thought it was actress Zendaya from The Greatest Showman which prompted a huge cheer from the studio audience and people at home seemed to like it too.

@RyanGTweetsTV said: "Zendaya is a great guess from Rita."

@scarlettpoyner said: "#TheMaskedSinger rockhopper is defo zendaya!!"

Davina said she thought it was Chris Kamara whereas Jonathan thought it could be Peter Andre masking his voice.

But viewers at home thought they had a better idea of who it was, Pointless presenter, Alexander Armstrong.

@RyanGTweetsTV said: "Traffic Cone: Alexander Armstrong."

@amanda_s10 said: "I think traffic cone could be Alexander Armstrong."

@alexanderls3 said: "Traffic Cone’s singing voice is soooooo Alexander Armstrong’s voice!!! I’m CONVINCED."

Bagpipes

Some people were thrown the Scottish accent, which the panel decided was a deception.

There was some confusion among viewers at home as to who Bagpipes could be, some suggesting Doctor Who actor David Tennant and others thinking it could be artist Grayson Perry.

But there were some who just wanted to be put out of their mystery and said Bagpipes needed to be unmasked as soon as possible.

@RhysThompson5 said: "Bagpipes need unmasking."

@jamesr181 said: "Bagpipes needs to be unmasked for sure."

Panda

Many at home thought Panda could be singer Natalie Imbruglia or Alesha Dixon.
@EmmaLJamieson said: "Panda could be Natalie Imbruglia."

@gingersim7 said: "Panda is definitely Alesha Dixon."

@iamfabio said: "Panda - Natalie Imbruglia"

Snow Leopard

The Snow Leopard on The Masked Singer (ITV)

Rita thought Snow Leopard who sang 'Bif Spender' could be Dame Judy Dench, while Jonathan thought it was Gloria Hunniford.

And he was right as she took off her mask. She said she hadn't sang in front of a crowd for over 20 years and one of the clues illuded to the fact that she can not swim.

*The Mask Singer is on Saturdays and Sundays on ITV1 from 7pm and available on ITV Player.
