I thought the same about Billie: question is, is she too big a name to do it?
The only one I'm very confident with is Dragon, who is definitely Sue Perkins!

I agree about Billie Piper. I think Dragon could be Courtney Act. No idea yet about Badger

I guessed sophie. Not because I got any of the clues or could decipher her speaking voice, but her singing voice is quite distinctive.

When Sausage went to the beach cafe it was described as Billie's Burger Bar and the caption was "We make the best burgers.. Because We Want To". Is that too obvious for Billie Piper? It felt too obvious to me, especially for week one. On the list of fish, they had 'Red Herring', so I am going to assume that's exactly what it was. If I remember correctly, the clues got more obvious as they moved towards the final last time. I think it's funny how some of the panel are really keen to guess who it is, but Jonathon Ross is just giving random names, playing with the clues. Personally, I like that approach, especially this early because it spoils the fun a bit once you've clicked who it probably is.

So glad Mo Gilligan has replaced that annoying idiot from the first series.

I read today that three of the judges had guessed alien correctly but that was cut from the show.

I'm new to this weirdly addictive show and have watched all of series 1 this week so I can watch the new series live from Saturday.
I didn't guess any of the first 5 from last year, but guessed everyone else, so aparrently my detective skills don't kick in until halfway through. I have failed miserably at everyone on the new series so far.
Sophie was a bit naughty as she sang her first song with a disguised voice. The encore she did at the end sounded completely different from her 'Alien' performance (I watched it back to make sure I wasn't going crazy).
It's a fun guessing game though. It'll fill the Strictly gap nicely for a few weeks 😁

Only just tuned in to this series and just saw Blob.
That’s Lennie Henry.

Blob has to be Lennie Henry!
I think Bush Baby might be Matt Lucas, he dropped a “Baked Potato” in the clues, and used to wear a romper suit as “he’s a baby” George Dawes in Shooting Stars.
Really surprised at the reveal though, they’ve got some good bookings this year.
Was it Harlequin who said she’d played the male lead in a musical? That’s got me really puzzled. The only thing I could think of is Rosalie Craig but I doubt she’s well known enough for this show... anyone got any ideas?

I thought they meant an actress playing a man - reverse of Michael Ball in Hairspray etc. but can’t think of scenarios where that occurs.

Harlequin sounded unmistakably like Gabrielle but admittedly I can't get that clue to fit with her.
Blob did feel like Lenny Henry.
Viking sounded like the guy from Embrace but others have said Ricky Wilson which is a great shout.
No idea at all on Bush Baby except I don't think he's Australian.
Grandfather Clock I think is David James as someone on the panel guessed.
And I didn't guess Mel B so as a 39-year-old gay man who adored the Spice Girls I am thoroughly ashamed of myself.

I thought that even though they said musical, this could have meant a panto as often there is an actress playing the male lead (e.g. Peter Pan).

I didn't see the show but I saw Liam Tamne and Tyrone Huntley guess Mica Paris (as Poppa in Starlight Express), and other MT fans guess Samantha Mumba (Teen Angel)...

Stab in the dark with Harlequin but Beverley Knight played Daddy Brubeck in Sweet Charity which is normally played by a man

If that was Sheridan she's improved a hell of a lot since I saw her in Funny Girl!

Wasn’t there some clue to do with Billie in sausage’s first appearance? That could also point to Sheridan because that’s her son’s name, something that obviously not many people would know.
