The Masked Singer will return to ITV on Boxing Day at 7pm.

Filming for the show began in September, with the new cast of disguised VIPs performing in front of a socially-distanced live audience.

The singing competition is described as a “surreal and surprising guessing game that will see 12 famous faces compete to pull off the best performance”.

Who are the characters on The Masked Singer series 2?

The full line-up for series two is even more bizarre than the first – with one character just a blob of pink and purple mess…called Blob.

The contestants are Alien, Sausage, Dragon, Seahorse, Viking, Blob, Harlequin, Swan, Bush Baby, Badger, Robin and Grandfather Clock.

Alien is described as hoping ‘to dazzle earthlings with out of this world performances’.

Sausage is ‘all wrapped up in a newspaper BUT will Sausage be the talk of the town?’

Dragon is described as a ‘cutie’, but ‘when they open their mouth to sing, can they bring the fire?’

Seahorse is described as a ‘beautiful marine creature who will be hoping their singing goes swimmingly’.

Viking is ‘armed with a sword and wearing a helmet and clearly taking this battle seriously!’

The Blob is described as having ‘many eyes’, but ‘will all eyes and ears be on Blob?!’

Harlequin is described as being either a ‘a joker in the pack or a stunning singer’.

Swan ‘will be confidently swanning into town but when swan sings will they ruffle feathers?’

Bush Baby is an ‘adorable looking cheeky fluffy fella but will the voice match the cute appearance?’

Badger ‘steps out of the sett but will this badger stand out from the crowd’.

The ‘rockin’ Robin is described as ‘hoping to deliver tweet harmonies and show that he’s not just for Christmas but planning to go the distance.’

Grandfather clock is described as the ‘original TikTok’ and ‘will be making every second on stage count.’

Last year, Girls Aloud’s Nicola Roberts was crowned The Masked Singer UK winner, after she was finally unmasked as Queen Bee – but what will the upcoming season reveal? Make sure to watch on Boxing Day to find out.

The Masked Singer is back on ITV and a new set of celebrities in costumes hiding their identities have left the judges guessing.

Panellists Rita Ora, Jonathan Ross, Davina McCall and Mo Gilligan are challenged with weighing up the clues and guessing who could be behind the masks.

All the singers take to the stage to put on a performance and at the end of each show, one singer is unmasked.

Here’s who the masked contestants are, who the judges think they could be, and in particular what we know about Robin.

What do we know about Robin and what clues are there?

Dressed in a snazzy outfit, Robin strutted out in his welcome video with spotlights on him as he walked onto a stage and said: “Ladies and gentlemen, please put your hands together and make some noise for Robin.”

Judge Gilligan picked up on the performer’s “confidence”, as Robin added: “I’m fast, light on my feet and I’m ready to go the distance. Think you can keep up?

“I’ve trained and now I’m fighting fit for The Masked Singer.”

The judges thought this could mean he is an athlete such as a boxer.

Robin also walked past an Albert Square street sign, referencing EastEnders.

He sang Can’t Stop The Feeling by Justin Timberlake and had a rather impressive voice and confident moves, leading the judges to think he was “a performer” and not a boxer.

In an additional clue at the end of his performance, Robin said: “I’ve been known to fly without wings”.

Who do the judges think Robin could be?

Gilligan thought Robin could be singer Bruno Mars, partly based on his “moves” and “swag”.

McCall stuck to the idea of Robin being a boxer and suggested Amir Khan, also due to his confidence. She also considered that he could be a member of boyband Westlife.

Ora said Robin had “great legs” and first guessed Yung Filly, but later changed her mind to Dean Gaffney, who plays Robbie in EastEnders.

Ross ran through a list of guesses, including Joe Wicks based on fitness clues and Joe Swash.

But some fans of the show have suggested Robin could be JLS star Aston Merrygold.

Several clues lead them to this, including the fact that JLS once sang with Westlife on The X Factor, performing the song Flying Without Wings.

Some others think it could be Olly Murs or Gareth Gates.

Who has been unmasked so far?

Grandfather Clock: Glen Hoddle

Footballer Glenn Hoddle was unmasked during the ITV programme on Saturday evening after being disguised as Grandfather Clock.

The former Spurs and England midfielder was in the last two alongside Viking, who escaped having their identity revealed.

Hoddle dropped a number of hints about his identity, including a reference to the late Argentine player Diego Maradona’s infamous “hand of God” goal against England.

Hoddle was on the pitch at the time of the controversial goal during the 1986 World Cup quarter-final.

Who did the judges think it was?

Ross thought goalkeeper Peter Shilton was hiding behind the costume, Gilligan guessed it was Lee Dixon, McCall opted for David Seaman and Ora went for Ian Wright.

Alien: Sophie Ellis-Bextor

Singer Sophie Ellis-Bextor was unmasked at the end of the first show, telling the judges: “You’ve crushed my mascot dreams”.

The clues were “a crime scene”, referring to her hit song “Murder of the Dancefloor”.

Other clues were “an epic battle”, as she once appeared in an episode of Game of Thrones, and a wedding dress as she wore a similar dress in the music video for “Get Over You”.

None of the judges guessed her identity though, with some suggesting she could be host Joel Dommett’s wife Hannah Cooper.

Who did the judges think it was?

Sophie Dahl, Lily Allen, Brenda Blethyn, Hannah Cooper

Seahorse: Mel B

In the second episode, former Spice Girls star Mel B was revealed behind the Seahorse mask.

Her clues were about being her being famous in the 1990s, referencing her role as part of the hugely popular girl band, and having a northern accent, as she is from Leeds in Yorkshire.

The other clue was that she once stole toilet paper from a famous person’s house.

One of the judges, Gilligan, correctly guessed she was Mel B.

Who did the judges think it was?

Jessica Ennis-Hill, Trisha Goddard, Debbie McGee, Mel B

Swan: Martine McCutcheon

In the third show, actress and singer Martine McCutcheon was revealed to be Swan.

The former EastEnders star, 44, lost after she went head to head with Sausage after they both received the lowest number of votes.

Swan had teased that she had served a Prime Minister and had deals with more than one president of the USA.

This referred to her role as secretary to Hugh Grant’s PM in Love, Actually, in which Billy Bob Thornton stars as the American President. She also revealed she sat next to Donald Trump at Liza Minelli and David Guest’s wedding.
