What an obvious fix that Dionne Warwick said she will do 1 week and the producers told the panel how to vote. They all guessed it was a soul legend but then voted her out first 😂😂😂.
It’s very obvious that producers give them random names to say, cos no way mo Gilligan knew off the cuff that Hugh Laurie was a taxi driver in friends, and that’s just 1 example. But now I think the panel are told who the celebs are and it’s not even a game for them. It just all seems to fake now.

I watched the clip as I can't stand the actual show but she may have well not been in costume as she didn't disguise her voice at all. It was so blatantly obvious that it was Dionne Warwick.

I never watch the programme and when a friend told me Dionne Warwick was in it I didn't believe it until she showed me a picture.
Has she hit hard times?

I was amazed when I heard Dionne had been voted off. But would she have wanted many performances in a big heacy costume so maybe she did say I'll do one show or her fee was per show so they thought get her voted off as she'd be expensive.
This is apparently going to be her farewell tour this year.
Egg people are saying is Noel Fielding which ties in with Bake Off.

Thought tonight’s show was better than last week. My guess for Bubble Tea is Emily Atack, Eiffel Tower could be Sheridan Smith and I guessed Chris Ramsey for Chicken Caesar which was obviously wrong!

Piranha was a great singer! My initial guess is Danny from McFly and whoever they are, I think will be in the final.

I am so cross with myself for not getting this. We are MASSIVE ‘Galaxy Defenders’ in our house, and only by going back and rewatching; listening to see if it IS Danny, it is 100% him. Hope he wins.

Air Fryer: Michelle Visage
Bubble: Emily Atack
Owl: Rachel Riley
No clue on Eiffel Tower but it's someone who's been on I'm a Celeb and EastEnders
There is no way Piranha is anyone but Danny Jones, hell of a distinctive voice

The idiotic panel is just so cringe that I can't bear to watch. But even they're not as bad as Graham Norton who can't need the money so badly he has to manufacture simpering sincerity to thick contestants on Wheel of Fakeness. Any respect I had for him is gone.

No idea who any of this second batch are. Way too much padding on this show though, needs an hour timeslot and tighter editing.

Gilligan and Ross are both great, McCall is fine, but they should definitely bin Rita Ora.

And the fact she perhaps has hearing issues now - they would have to hide the foldback speakers behind those clouds every single week like they did in Week 1. Would have been very restrictive with any staging! As mentioned - feels like a bit of a fixed big name just to get the new season going. |

Cricket - Lemar
Maypole - Melody Thornton
That was a surprising reveal tonight!

I’m convinced Maypole is Rita Ora.

I'm fairly confident that Dippy Egg is Ed Balls. Voting clue, "commons" reference in the extra clue and football + tractor = "Tractor Boys", the nickname of Ipswich Town, the rivals of Norwich City who Balls used to be Chairman of.
My inkling for Maypole is Samira Mighty due to them clearly being a trained singer and many references to Love Island. I really hope it's not Rita Ora but I wouldn't put that beyond the producers.
Cricket is Lemar, I knew I recognised the voice and my wife and I both *screamed* when Olly Murs guessed it!
(Murs, as an aside, was great. I'd be very happy to see him replace Ora)

Especially since they’ve booted him off The Voice from out of nowhere. |

Once again, a fix. It just so happens that the person voted out this week is connected to the guest judge 🙄.

Yeah, that was a remarkable coincidence. And all the guest judges at the end does make it look like Rita Ora is one of the singers.

There’s no voting money being ‘wasted’, and we got to see that lovely reunion. I had Sawahla in mind when they gave a ‘Press’ related clue, but jumped ship to Fearne Cotton because it sounded a bit like her. |

Whilst I agree that it’s just an entertainment show, when it starts to appear more and more manipulated then it loses some of its fun/ entertainment to me.
