The Masked Singer spoilers follow.

The Masked Singer returned with its sixth season on Saturday (January 4), with a mystery from the recent Christmas special being solved.

The ITV show made its return to the small screen as a new batch of celebrities took to the stage to perform famous songs under rather extravagant costumes, but not before the mystery of Giant Joel - who was modelled on host Joel Dommett - was solved.

The character, who was introduced in the 2024 Christmas special, came back to the show as the panellists - Mo Gilligan, Davina McCall, Jonathan Ross and newcomer Maya Jama - attempted to deduce their identity.

Davina and Maya thought that it could be I'm a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! hosting duo Ant & Dec, whilst Mo opted for former TOWIE star Mark Wright, but it was Jonathan who got the bragging points as he correctly guessed that it was gold medal-winning Olympian, Mo Farah, behind the mask.

Farah, who described his experience as "incredible", joined the panel for the remainder of the episode, where they presided over six new mystery acts who took to the stage for the first time.

The Masked Singer airs on ITV1 and streams on ITVX.
