The Masked Singer

Joel Dommett presents a singing competition where performers are concealed in elaborate costumes. Both a celebrity panel and the studio audience are tasked with identifying the well‑known singers hidden behind the disguises, adding a guessing element to each performance live.

The series is a singing competition presented by Joel Dommett. It follows a familiar game‑show structure, with a host guiding the proceedings and a live studio audience watching each performance. The programme’s premise centres on music, costumes and the thrill of discovery, all wrapped up in a light‑hearted, entertainment‑focused format. In each episode, well‑known personalities sit on a celebrity panel, while the studio audience shares the same task: they must work out which famous individuals are behind the extravagant outfits. The singers perform while concealed in elaborate costumes that hide their identities, prompting both the panel and the crowd to make guesses based on vocal clues and stage presence. The dual‑guessing element creates a shared experience of speculation and revelation. The show’s core mechanic hinges on the interplay between the celebrity judges and the audience, each offering their own theories about the masked performers. As the performances unfold, the combined efforts of the panel and the viewers drive the narrative forward, culminating in the eventual unmasking of the well‑known faces. This structure keeps the focus squarely on the guessing game, the music, and the surprise of discovering who is hidden behind each costume.
