Another weekend, another Masked Singer UK reveal – and this time, it was Gargoyle taking off their mask!
The 2026 series got off to a typically bonkers start, as Joel Dommett returned to host everyone’s favourite guessing game.
And after a string of shocking reveals thus far, tonight’s Spooktacular elimination was just as unexpected.
Joining the unmasked club was none other than American singer-songwriter Marcella Detroit, who had been performing in the elaborate attire all along.
Having lost out in a sing-off against Sloth, they lifted their mask and sent the studio audience into a frenzy.
In true Masked Singer fashion, viewers have been kept well and truly on their toes up until now, not knowing which singer, presenter, or comedian could pop up from beneath a furry animal head next.
Launch weekend kicked off by introducing some Masked Singer firsts, as pop star Anne-Marie and Little Britain’s Matt Lucas were unveiled as the lead singers of the studio’s house bands. They were dressed as Goldfish and Emperor Penguin, respectively, of course.
But then the real competition began, with The One Show’s Alex Jones becoming the first celebrity eliminated, taking off her Disc Jockey mask, much to the shock of panellists Davina McCall, Jonathan Ross, Maya Jama, and Mo Gilligan.
Next came Teabag’s reveal, with rapper Professor Green unveiled to be underneath the costume in the ultimate 2000s throwback.
Then last weekend, we had Yak’s unmasking, who was discovered to be none other than Sex Pistols icon John Lydon, aka Johnny Rotten.
Remaining in the contest for now are contestants such as Red Panda, Monkey Business, Conkers, and Toastie, all of whom will be hoping to take the crown from 2025 winner Samantha Barks and emerge as the series winner.
The Masked Singer airs on ITV1 and ITVX.
