Episode two aired a day later, with the second unveiling taking place.

Episode 2: Snow Leopard – Gloria Hunniford

Presenter and broadcaster Gloria Hunniford, who appears as a panellist on Loose Women, was the second celebrity to be eliminated from The Masked Singer UK’s third season.

The star left most of the judging panel stunned when she took off her Snow Leopard suit, but Jonathan Ross had managed to guess her identity correctly.

Speaking exclusively to RadioTimes.com, Gloria Hunniford revealed that her mask almost fell off on The Masked Singer.

Talking to presenter Joel Dommett after she was unmasked, she revealed: “I started to sing when I was seven and I hate to tell you but it was pre-television days. But I haven’t sung on a stage in something like 27 years.

“I couldn’t believe it when I was asked to take part,” the 81-year-old explained.

“I’m of a certain age and it was a challenge. It sounded like a lot of fun and I thought I’d like to try it.”

Gloria went on: “Even to this day only three people in my family know. You get the point that you are so afraid of mentioning it that as time passes, you look back and think, ‘Did I actually do that?’”

Episode 1: Chandelier – Heather Small

Singer Heather Small, famous for hits Moving on Up, Search for the Hero, Proud and One Night in Heaven, was the first celeb to leave the competition on Saturday night’s premiere (1st January).

“I wanted it to be a real surprise and I think I achieved that,” said Small of her time on the show. “I live with my son and mother and they had no clue. I managed to keep it a secret.”

As for her costume, Small said that she was “given options”, but it was Chandelier which caught her eye.

“I loved my look because it didn’t give much away,” she added. “It was intricate, beautiful and I take my hat off to the costume makers. They were phenomenal.”
