Panda is 100% Natalie Imbruglia Yes. Not even up for debate. It's definitely her! I was none the wiser when Poodle took his mask off, but I still think it's a good, surprising booking and someone who's not on the reality TV circuit. That's something this show does really well compared to most reality shows who just parachute in Love Islanders etc.

I was torn between three for Poodle, h3 sounded exactly like Gary Barlow one week, then Mika another, and Tom from Keane, so I got close but never committed!
Robobunny is Mark from Westlife, that's the only other I'm certain of.

I was less convinced that Robobunny is Mark Feehily this week... it didn't sound as strong as I would have expected Mark to be.
It was also still sound like two people!

I saw a spoiler for this week before I'd finished watching last week's episode. Knowing who Poodle was, it was obvious listening to him. He has such a distinctive voice. I've seen him live at least half a dozen times, but the clues are so obscure it really takes the fun out of it. My dad managed to guess, only after I said it's someone he should know. It still took him about 3/4 of the song.
It's getting to the stage where the clues might as well be what they had for breakfast because they're almost that obscure. I really only go by the voice now, and that's only helpful once some of the guesses point you in the right direction.

Rockhopper is 100% Michelle Williams from Destiny’s Child and I hope she wins

The clues were leading to Mika but a lot were false as far as Poodle was concerned. Often people are guessing more by the voice than by the clues.

It's like the whole thing going on with shock twists in television and film nowadays. The foreshadowing should lead you to the conclusion, if you manage to guess in advance you feel vindicated, or on a re-watch you can see the signposts leading up to it all along. Whereas now, if someone guesses the ending it has to be changed, because logic be damned we can't have the ending be spoiled by following a plot thread to its natural conclusion, we need the shock value for the headlines.
So instead of throwing in some read herrings to distract and make us doubt ourselves, we're left with the most obscure facts not even the biggest fans would know, so we have no idea. Then we're just left with the voice itself- oh if they're not disguising that! Surely the whole idea is to be able to guess them?

The clues are generally pretty obscure, but this week they did make a point of showing that Robo Bunny was perched on a stool…

I loved 321. You always got a turn, often Stephanie Lawrence or the Stutz Bear Cats (which Graham Bickley was in)

Ted's youngest son did a one man show about his father circa 2019. He was also in a panto I saw later that year.

The Mushroom sounds a lot like Charlotte Church. Alfie Boe as the traffic cone?

Traffic Cone is definitely Aled Jones. You can hear his Welsh accent coming through when he's speaking.

I can hear it more in his singing voice and think he’s doing a good job of distraction in his videos. Robobunny - Mark from Westlife. One of the clues in the video after he sang was Grease and I think he performed in it when he was younger with other members of Westlife. Mushroom is the one I’m really stuck with now.

I think Traffic Cone is Lee Mead. The last performance sounded a lot like him and there were a couple of potential Joseph references (something about "multicoloured" and performing for royalty, ie Royal Variety Show).
I've been convinced from the beginning that Rockhopper is Michelle Williams from Destiny's Child, mainly because they've referenced trios several times and made many references to Greatest Showman, which stars the actress of the same name.
I thought Robobunny was Marvin Hulme from JLS, but the last performance was so bizarre it's really thrown me.

Aled Jones also played Joseph back in the 90s, it was his first musical theatre role. Summer season at the Blackpool Opera House.

My mum suggested Traffic Cone could be Michael Crawford and then ironically RoboBunny sang Music of the Night. The Bunny was sat on a stool so is that a bit Westlife clue from the video package.
Panda does fit with Natalie as they mentioned street - Ramsay Street in Neighbours and there was a clue that related to her debut album Left of the Middle.
I agree Charlotte Church is Mushroom they talked about making a new start and she is opening a Wellness Retreat apparently.
Traffic Cone is one of the Classical Male mob although Lee Mead would have a similar range so could be a good shout.
Rockhopper is the interesting one. Like with Joss Stone last year there is usually a curveball in there.

I don't think anyone saw Joss Stone coming last year. We were both convinced, along with the rest of the country, that it was Sheridan Smith. I find it so funny how often she's predicted, she's got to do the show someday!

I love people having doubt but…
It’s Mark from Westlife because it sounds like Mark from Westlife.
It’s Aled Jones because it sounds like Aled Jones.
It’s Michelle Williams etc
There are exceptions where you just don’t know the voice or the stuff they sing doesn’t show the parts of their voice that you know (eg Joss Stone) but on the whole it just takes closing your eyes and concentrating on where you’ve heard that sound before.
