Masked Singer unmasks Pegasus as Bake Off star.

The excitement is building as The Masked Singer UK's latest season kicks off, with all 12 celebrity contestants taking the stage and one more unmasked this past weekend. The panel, consisting of Davina McCall, Jonathan Ross, Mo Gilligan, newcomer Maya Jama, and guest judge Vicky McClure, had their work cut out for them as they tried to guess the identities of the secretive singers.

Saturday's episode saw the first six characters perform, with Spag Bol being the first to be eliminated after the panel saved Teeth in the bottom two. But the real shocker came on Sunday when not one, but two contestants were unmasked. After a tense showdown between Bush and Pegasus, it was ultimately Pegasus who had to reveal their true identity.

And who was under that majestic horse head? None other than Great British Bake Off icon Dame Prue Leith! Despite the elaborate disguise, she managed to keep her trademark jazzy spectacles in place, much to the surprise of the panel and audience.

Jonathan Ross had been on the right track with his guesses, picking up on a Scottish reference and a mention of a blue ribbon and blue jeans, often worn by Dame Prue's co-star and fellow judge, Paul Hollywood. At 84 years old, Dame Prue is believed to be the oldest-ever contestant on the UK version of the show. Her riddle, "Pegasus is timeless, who cares about age? If you've got the right words, you can command any stage," certainly proved to be accurate.

After being unmasked, Dame Prue admitted that she had never sung before and was tone deaf, but she had taken singing lessons in preparation for the show. Despite her lack of experience, she had a blast and even poked fun at her friend and co-worker Paul, saying he would probably think she was "completely mad" for taking on such a challenge instead of just sticking to Bake Off.

The Masked Singer continues to keep viewers on the edge of their seats, with more contestants yet to be revealed. As always, fans can expect more twists and turns as the competition heats up.
