The Masked Singer revealed its sixth celebrity on tonight’s episode (30 January).
The hit ITV series sees a roster of celebrities dress up in elaborate costumes that conceal their identity, and compete in a singing competition.
During the episode, all seven remaining competitors performed before the TV audience, as well as judges Rita Ora, Jonathan Ross, Mo Gilligan and Davina McCall.
At the end of the programme, the judges decided to send Blob home.
After he was chosen for elimination, it was then revealed that Blob’s identity was in fact actor and comedia Sir Lenny Henry.
Davina McCall was the only judge to have guessed Henry correctly.
Henry is one of the best loved actors in Britain, appearing in sitcoms and dramas respectively.
The clue which showed him paying with a cheque was a nod to the fact he co-founded Comic Relief in 1985.
Henry said his decision to appear on the show was inspired by boredom due to spending the majority of the past year in lockdown.
The latest episode featured a double elimination, and also revealed the identity of Viking.
The Masked Singer continues on ITV at 7pm every Saturday. Next week will be the semi-final featuring guest judge Matt Lucas.
