Back to guess their identity will be the panel of celebrity sleuths – Jonathan Ross, Davina McCall, Rita Ora and newcomer Mo Gilligan.

Opening the show on Saturday, the panel all discuss how their competitive spirit has well and truly kicked in as they each attempt to be the best guesser!

Jonathan Ross says: “I’m still confident. I think my guesses are the closest to being spot on from anyone on the panel. I think I’m going to nail it tonight.

“I’m on top of the world and I’m going to win.”

On the clues this year, Rita Ora comments: “They’re really hard. I did come in confident and now I’m kind of like ‘not that easy’ but I’m hoping and I’m praying I can again leave with the title of the champion. Let’s see.”

In her opening remarks, Davina McCall reveals: “it’s too much to handle and not only am I feeling quite competitive but Mo, the newcomer, he’s already right up there trying to win.”

Now settled into his seat on the panel, Mo Gilligan shares his thoughts on his fellow panellists: “You know what? Me and Davina are very good… we’re like good cop, bad cop.

“We’ve got a good little connection going on. Jonathan – he’s on another level. He’s playing the Masked Singer 2.0. Rita is very competitive.”
