Masked Singer 2022 Thread 2. Who IS that behind the Mask?

[Piggywaspushed]

New thread!

Help us through the rubbish clues!

Where is TMS filmed? Panda looks like she is in Scotland but then so was Bagpipes.

He is singing worse without the mask on!!

This song was DS1s fav back in the day, awwww

How many of us read about or saw a trailer for Series 1 and said 'I'm not watching that crap'??

Me!

Ha ha I even said that anyone who watched it needed to get a life. I guess that means I need to get a life

Im backing Brian May as poodle

That's actually his real hair

Chuckling that last week we were supposed to figure out a clue that referred to the name of an episode of Midsummer Murders(I think?) that will Young appeared in and this week it's "Look, here's the actual name of the singer in this clue!"

4 masked singer addicted hands up here

Just looking at Poodle I thought Grayson Perry!

Fair enough jelly I just thought it sounded like him.

Did you not notice we kept ignoring you tactfully APJ ??

I just kept thinking "Seriously, how can I be the only one hearing this voice. Well I'll laugh when I'm proven right!"

Not caught up on this thread but my husband has suggested Julia Sawalha for Panda.

Voiced a character called Hammer in the Fable video game series. Also voiced a character in Chicken Run (animated).
Also provided additional voices in the game World of Warcraft who have a race of panda characters.
Can sing - was on Celebrity Stars In Their Eyes.

Well, thanks for the company all! We aren't doing too badly as Team Mumsnet!

I think the out and about stuff is all done by the 'stunt double' aka the tea boy gets thrown on a train with a costume and a cameran man! I don't think it's the actual people, so not necessarily a pointer to where they live now type thing.

I've managed to wipe office of my computer so can't open my spreadsheet, but I do remember the poodle having a lot of collars with names of queens on them. That and the poodle hair def makes me think Brian May, but could he sing like that? He did have a couple of solo tunes out but I don't recall him being that great.

I think poodle is Adam Lambert I think he sang a queen song in the first show and one of the clues was he likes being idolised?
He came second I think in his season of American Idol .

What song did poodle sing?

Brian May has a lovely voice. He did a solo version of Too much Love Will Kill You, which I prefer to Freddie's.

Having said that, I think the voice is too young to be his.

What happened to guesses for Adam Lambert?

I think Mika can fit with the queen clue, since he sang about Grace Kelly who was married to royalty.

Wouldnt mika be too
Obvious? He basically said he was
Mika

They must be told who people are suspecting (from tweets and MUmsnet etc) then tailor the clues so that people are kept guessing

The show was all filmed back in November, so when they probably play recordings of each singer to a test audience before they write some of the clues, and get popular guesses from there to tailor them to.

Bit of a wildcard but how about Emilia Clarke for panda? She was an elf in Last Christmas and of course Clark’s shoes. And she can sing, and she’s pretty small!

Amanda Holden and Ashley roberts posted pics of themselves as elves at Xmas

Also - the stars - in game of thrones one of her known phrases was my sun my stars.

I think Panda is Mel Giedroyc.
