Take It Off! Take It Off! Masked Singer 2026 Guess and Chat Along

[Piggywaspushed]

We all fully expect Sheridan Smith, Lisa Stansfield, Harry Hill and David Tennant to turn up. (In all honesty it would make my decade if even one of them did.)

Tape measures and sleuthing skill at the ready, gang.

Series begins January 3rd.

Monkey Business is not a singer I'd say

feels like it

Who guessed Sarah Hadland last week? She’s been in Cats and I think it sounds a bit like her.

Nice but of highbrow for worst to quote 17th c playwright Richard Sheridan. Lord Reith would be proud.

Obligatory Sheridan Smith guess

Could it be Angela Scanlon?

She is TINY though...

Ted Rogers lives on through Joel!

Hannah Waddingham can hold back a bit, she did it in Ted Lasso I believe, they asked her to be a bit less good because it didn't fit the character for her to be herself.

It's probably not her though. Were they any good last week, I can't remember?

Yes definitely not. She can sing ok, but her breath control is not good at all.

Yes, the costumes are almost always a red herring.

I can only think of Morten Harkett where it was possibly clue.

Can yak be voted off this week please?

I remember reading that Christopher Isherwood thought Liza Minnelli was badly miscast as Sally Bowles because the real performers he had based Sally on were all a bit ropey.

We have got a while on this one so don't vanish yet but I made a new thread in case we get carried away. I'll link later!

Might be amazing this week. Last week might have been a red herring 😂

YouTube saying Diana Vickers for monkey

The problem when it's actors is that there will be tons who can just about hold a tune as they'll have been to stage school/drama school/had singing lessons to try and get through auditions. Then the panel gets all excited because they think it's someone who can sing, when really they're just not absolutely shit like I would be.

Great user name!!

Remind me who she is?

She was on X Factor. That's all I got.

I know nothing of musical theatre- what about a tenuous actress from Hamilton link? (who no-one will recognise).

Diana vickers was on the X factor.

Is this the one we think is Rowetta?

Rowetta?

I still think Rowetta

Amazing voice
