The Masked Singer returned tonight with a major shake-up, as the remaining characters all took to the stage together for the first time – and viewers knew they were in for a dramatic night with two unmaskings on the cards.
Little Mix star Perrie Edwards joined the judging panel as a guest this week, and fans were quick to notice she came armed with theories, listening closely to every clue and vocal detail as the performances unfolded.

Monkey Business, Arctic Fox and Red Panda were in the bottom
Arctic Fox delivered a soaring rendition of Woman in Love by Barbra Streisand, instantly setting social media buzzing.
Jonathan Ross put forward Diversity star Ashley Banjo as his guess, a suggestion that was met with visible confusion from the studio audience. Maya Jama followed with a Strictly-inspired guess of Johannes Radebe, while Perrie Edwards raised eyebrows by naming Bake Off legend Prue Leith before swiftly adding Mary Berry into the mix.
Davina McCall, however, echoed the thoughts of many viewers at home by confidently guessing Anton Du Beke. Mo Gilligan went in a completely different direction, suggesting it could be Sam Ryder.
While a small number of fans thought Arctic Fox might be Jason Donovan, the overwhelming consensus online was that Anton Du Beke was clearly behind the mask – leaving viewers baffled as to why the panel appeared so divided.
Red Panda’s latest clues referenced goggles, avoiding fluffing their lines, and a link to Africa. When they performed Big Girls Don’t Cry from The Jersey Boys, fans were convinced the singer was deliberately disguising their real voice.
Mo guessed Tom Fletcher, Davina went with Sean Bean, Perrie Edwards chose James Corden, Maya Jama was convinced it was Ritchie Neville, and Jonathan Ross landed on Alan Carr.
Monkey Business followed with As Long As You Need Me from Oliver!, after previously telling Davina that she knew her. Maya believed the accent pointed to Lily Allen, while Jonathan guessed Tamzin Outhwaite – despite her having already appeared on the show in a previous series. Perrie Edwards thought the accent was put on and guessed Selling Sunset star Bre Tiesi, while Mo leaned towards Maisie Smith.
