The Masked Singer : Will Tree shed his leaves for us tonight? Are we barking up the wrong tree?

[Piggywaspushed]

Emergency new thread!

Yes the stout was another clue that ruled Jason out for me I know he has Irish grandparents but he is famous not a big a drinker never has been.

I really think the accent is northern as opposed to Welsh

I think the clues are absolute shite to be honest- one of Ducks was all about athletics and running and it was that she ran as a child?! How would we be able to guess that???

And unicorn about his private jets as a child or something. They’re very loose clues and hardly any good - I think I’ve guessed most just by linking their voice!

Queen Bee is Nicola - definitely not Little Mix . She does have a scouse “twang” not geordie.

Don’t think monster can be Cee Lo , he’s mentioned having a big family of little monsters - I’m sure he only has one child.

looking at the clues for Hedgehog hairspray, cats and the phantom mask has to be a theatre performer.
The big family fits with Alfie Boe and that can’t fit with many.

Could be Alfie boe but the clue was about hedgehogs nan wasn't it so large family would be aunts, uncles cousins and siblings so any only child could still come from a large family in that context...which is a lot less useful like most of these clues 🤷🏻‍♀️

Thanks for confirming that. I thought that's what he had said. So, we are looking for someone whose grandma had lots of children. Piece of cake...

Exactly a large extended family with and Irish connection...sure there aren't many of those

The way he said let's see what's coming up on tonight's show and The royal variety clue makes me think we are looking at a bit of an all rounder presenter, west end performer, actor that kind of person like a Bradley Walsh, Brian Connolly and yes Jason Manford type of celebrity.

@ChicCroissant I have to be honest with you - I don’t have a purple bin either but I grew up not too far from you and frequent Anfield on many an occasion

I keep forgetting clues from previous weeks, I am genuinely thinking of re-watching with a notebook or is that reaaaalllyyy geeky?

As the reveals happen it interesting to see how the clues work - someone (piggy maybe) pointed out the politics clue for Skin was her song Yes it F**in Policital and the Muse though right was designed to throw off course slightly

Wasn't me quartz : I know very little of Skin! That had me claiming it was Floella Benjamin!

I do think Hedgehog's entry this week was a clue : which is why I said Matthew Kelly but he doesn't really fit the clues.

Hedgehog has said its lonely when not with an ensemble. He talks like he is constantly about to introduce guests iykwim

The line made me think of Jason Manford when he used to present the one show and I agree with Sharon (I never thought I would say that) it's a very Phillip Schofield line but the singing voice sounded wrong for Jason and I don't think any of the clues fit Schofield all though he is on 90% of itv prime time shows so it wouldn't be a shock in that sense

He certainly seems comfortable on stage chipstick

We are going to need a new thread soon!!

Hedgehog said something like "let's see what's coming up on tonight's show" in his intro which makes me think more tv show host. ARGHH I dunno!

So... singer (possibly classical) who has turned TV presenter. Are we back at Aled Jones... clues don't much fit him, though.

Whoever the singer is seems to have been in a group of some kind - or I guess in theatre where the word 'ensemble' is used.

I keep leading myself back to Jason manford he was host of the one show and has done panel shows ect lots of stuff like that and solo comedy shows but the family clue and the singing voice the last 2 weeks has really thrown me but I think we are looking for someone like that Aled Jones I can't find any West end links i don't think it can be!

Jason Manford is on a quiz show BBC straight after Masked singer.

Shall I start another thread?

Go for it we only have a few posts left and I have 0 ideas for a name 🤷🏻‍♀️

Thread three - www.mumsnet.com/Talk/telly_addicts/3812475-The-Masked-Singer-Will-we-ever-get-to-the-point-of-identifying-Hedgehog-Thread-3

Could octopus be Charlotte Church?

I did think her but I couldn't see the Jason Donovan clue or the vegan clue fitting so I ruled her out without looking that hard

Jason Donovan was Katharine Jenkin's first crush.

Really hope 🦊 goes tonight. Cant bear DVO generally but especially singing.
