In the US version they had Hanson and David Foster and Katherine McPhee as joint contestants. They have had a lot of singers on their version plus a few sports stars and other names.

I’m quite surprised Jonathan went straight in with his correct guess of Gloria Hunniford when it was blatantly Lenny Henry last year and week after week none of them said him.
I love the Robo-Bunny costume, by far the best one this year. I wondered if it was Chris O’Dowd, from the Irish accent and the CtrlAltDelete clue, but the guess on the last page makes more sense. (Though I’d have though he’d be a stronger singer in his normal voice as well as in the falsetto.)

Bagpipes sounds exactly like Dermot O Leary but the clues don't really add up.

Heather Small Thank you! I couldn’t see this earlier in the thread but didn’t like to say 🥺. Fancy her getting voted off so early! 😲 |

Heather Small Thank you! I couldn’t see this earlier in the thread but didn’t like to say 🥺. Fancy her getting voted off so early! 😲 She tried to mask her distinctive voice, and it didn't come off sounding great. It worked though, no one guessed it was her! |

It worked though, no one guessed it was her! Sorry, that was my mistake! But yeah, she made a mess of disguising her voice and it sounded weird. I guess it’s difficult when you have one of the most recognisable voices in the business! |

I suspect that they only show some of the panel’s guesses. So perhaps Lenny Henry was named earlier last year, but they edited it to keep us guessing… |

Firework is Sheridan Smith
Traffic Cone is Rick Astley

I completely stand by my guesses of who Robobunny and Lionfish are , having heard them sing again

I’m still intrigued/ have no idea about a few of them!
Think the panel should have saved Lionfish over Firework tonight as he was the better singer.
I agree with a previous poster that Robobunny could be Mark from Westlife. Sarah Lancashire perhaps for Mushroom.

Robobunny is awesome (voice and costume). If it is Mark Freewilly from Westlife I’d be happy with that.

It's a shame two great singers had such distinctive voices that they had to hide them and this resulted in them sounding terrible and being voted off. I also agree that Lionfish was far, far better than firework even with the disguised voice.
Robobunny for the win! But I have no idea who any of them are...

Why they kept firework over lionfish is beyond me, but it's just silly fun at the end of the day. I though Will looked really well. I'm glad robobunny has a chance to sing on his own, always had a great voice. At the beginning of his clue package there was a lady with a clipboard who said " take one and MARK it" |

As soon as someone plants the seed in your head it is obvious who people are. After listening back to Robobunny with my eyes shut (too amusing otherwise) it is clearly Gargoyle from Westlife. (We had pet names for them back in the day…potato, potato, potato, gargoyle & toad). Gosh I am awful.

I suspect that they only show some of the panel’s guesses. So perhaps Lenny Henry was named earlier last year, but they edited it to keep us guessing… That's what I assume too. I'd guessed Gloria, based on her singing voice sounding like her talking voice, so when Jonathan named her, not only was I convinced I was right, but I predicted she'd be the contestant going home. It is a risk for the contestants making a particular effort to disguise their voice. It worked for Katherine Jenkins, but her famous singing voice is the trained one, so presumably easier for her to sing in a poppy style without it sticking out too much and still sound good. |

The panel will always eliminate the character they are most confident of getting right. Once we knew it was Will we could clearly recognise his voice and likewise Gloria has such a well known voice she was easier to spot.
The fun ones are if they are actors or performers who can really disquise their voice and do different accents, inflections so it can throw the panel.

Am I the only person here (yes) who thinks Joel Dommett with all his corny jokes and silly links, is NOT annoying but completely adorable! His hyper approach rather suits the silliness of this show - still enjoyable, but lockdown 2021 made it rather more watchable than this series.

Yes I agree, I think he's the perfect presenter for this - you can see he loves his job, he was getting really into singing along to Teenage Dirtbag!
