I finally caught up and I’m confident that
Fawn - Natalie Appleton Jellyfish - Amber Riley Knitting - Claire Richards Rhino - Charlie Simpson
The rest I’m very much less sure about it. Phoenix I thought might be Ricky Wilson or Arthur Darvill. Otter is maybe Julie Walters? She seems like the type to do something for a laugh. Rubbish clues pointed to a snooker player but that seemed like a red herring. The others I’m drawing a blank on to be honest.

They would have been filming at the same time so it won't be her.

UK Season 4 filmed in October 22, when Amber was in London US series was filmed well before that. On top of that - the white dream catchers in the clue package = Effie White. Won before unexpectedly = first Black woman to win Dancing With The Stars Create my own light = Judge on Let It Shine Me Shell = Glee co-star Lea Michelle. The riddle was a clue about voicing an animation and she voiced a singer in an episode of The Simpsons.

I've just rewatched the Jellyfish performance and I think you're right, I can definitely hear Amber's trademark riffs and belt in there. Having her compete so soon after winning the US one would be totally unexpected so it'll be hard to guess. You're clever! I think you're right on Claire and Charlie as well, but Fawn sounds like someone slightly older than Natalie Appleton.

Yeah so not a chance that Jellyfish is anyone except Amber Riley. The little mermaid reference as she was in Little Mermaid Live. Good Magic tape as she was Good Witch of the North in The Wiz Live. Her artist name is RILEY aka mononymous. There was even a point where she said “I’m not telling yous”!
Phoenix is Ricky Wilson. Didn’t expect to tread the boards = Artilleryman in War Of The Worlds. Magical and film clues = cameo in Harry Potter Deathly Hallows Pt 1. Football reference = ambassador for Leeds United Foundation.
Knitting goes without saying, that’s Claire from Steps. The fade to black Scared Of The Dark clue was very on the nose. As was future in 2 halves clue = What The Future Holds album Pt 1 and Pt 2.
Otter remains the biggest mystery of that group for me!

I thought the football reference might be that kaiser chiefs are a South African football team. Also, mononymous for Amber Riley might be cos she’s known as Mercedes from glee. Edit: (soz, still watching and behind). Otter- Mel giedroyc was in the rocky horror show, and one of her clues hinted to that.

Ooh yeah that fits even better for Ricky Wilson!

Shr could have quite easily taken the days off to film it, unless you know she had a 100% percent attendance rate?
However, I thought it was her based on what I heard laat night, without any of the clues or previous performances. Bur after listening to 'Memory' It has to be Claire Richards.

I'm pretty certain Jellyfish is Amber Riley too.

I think Fawn is one of the members of All Saints (cargo = cargo pants, which they were well known for wearing. Marmalade = they sang a version of Lady Marmalade. Platinum = they had platinum selling albums). I’d guess Melanie Blatt.

I've never watched the programme in full, I just don't think I could stand it. I've just liked hearing some of my favourite singers sing some well known material (that isn't their own).
What is the object of the game? The winner wins on what criteria?
I've seen a common comment saying real singers often don't do well and get knocked out early on - why is this?

The studio audience vote, the two acts with the least votes sing again, the judges save their favourite. There's not much more criteria to it than that, it could very easily be manipulated to get whatever winner they wanted really. I'd say the stronger voices go the furthest, generally the comedians/sports stars/actors tend to leave in the early weeks.

Thanks, but what are the audience voting for? Their favourite voice?

Voting has been awful this season, and probably last too. Awful acts who can’t sing are being kept in over good singers because they are funny. I know the UK version is meant to be a Saturday night family entertainment show, which is why they don’t take it seriously, especially the panel and their guesses, but this is why I prefer the US version because it’s much more like X Factor. They have better singers, bigger stars, a great panel who make real guesses, and whatever you think of Nick Cannon he’s a really good host. It’s a proper singing competition.

The Masked Singer isn't really a talent show, it's essentially a musical gameshow.

So ITV have gone for a different "angle". I saw the highlights of LeAnn Rimes on the US show (one of my favourite singers) and it was a joy to hear her voice!

Essentially yeah.... or favourite performance may be more accurate, not necessarily the voice alone.

All the songs tonight are clues and Jellyfish just sang Leave A Light On - Amber Riley wrote a song with the same title for the The Saturdays.
Otter is Daisy May Cooper I think.
Ricky Wilson is Phoenix.
Jacket Potato is Richie Sambora from Bon Jovi. The fundraiser was “halfway there” in the clue package.

Hmmm jacket potato is either Brian Conley or Shane Ritchie, the clue package was set in a working man’s club, and it sounds exactly like one of them. Amber Riley, Claire Richards and Charlie Simpson, Natalie Appleton are the absolute right people, these aren’t up for debate anymore. All the clues link up to them 100% and it’s clear from their voices too.

Hard to predict who's going to win, really want a male winner so would be happy with either Rhino or Phoenix.

Absolutely did not see Katherine Ryan coming at all. Not a fan of her normally but she certainly had me fooled!
Richie Sambora is a hell of a shout, feel like a huge hint has been dropped with the glimpse of Jacket Potato playing guitar next week.
We're convinced that Otter is Daisy-May Cooper too. 9 to 5 sounded a lot like her, RADA reference, BAFTA winner, repeats of "it's not real" felt like a reference to This Country which is a mockumentary.

Did anyone go to see the show when it was on tour? Is it a good ‘live event’ experience?
