The Masked Dancer UK: Who is the final and when is it on?
After a week of bonkers dance routines, the final of The Masked Dancer UK is upon us, coming just four months after Joss Stone was crowned the winner of ITV’s The Masked Singer UK.
On The Masked Dancer tonight, the costumed celebrity dancers – including Scarecrow, Zip, Carwash and Squirrel – will battle it out in a bid to become victorious.
Throughout the week, TV viewers across the nation have been absolutely mind-boggled as they’ve tried to figure out who the celebrity contestants are from their dance routines and their cryptic clues.
With just one more episode to go, let’s bring on the final!
Who is in the final of The Masked Dancer?
There are four contestants left in the running on the first series of The Masked Dancer UK, having shown off their best moves on the dancefloor throughout the week.
The finalists are Carwash, Scarecrow, Squirrel and Zip. Quite an eclectic bunch!
Carwash managed to scrape into the final after landing in the dance-off against Frog in the semi-final.
Frog was unmasked after their defeat, revealing Kelly Brook underneath the costume.
So who do you think is going to win The Masked Dancer UK, and – perhaps more importantly – who is behind each of the masks? We don’t have long until we find out!
When is The Masked Dancer on tonight?
The final of The Masked Dancer UK airs tonight at 7.30pm on ITV.
The grand finale will air for an hour and a half, during which the winner will finally be announced.
Holly Willoughby will join the panelists as a guest judge, taking her seat alongside Mo Gilligan, Davina McCall, Oti Mabuse and Jonathan Ross, with Joel Dommett presenting.
While The Masked Singer UK aired on a weekly basis, The Masked Dancer UK has been a nightly event.
However, The Masked Dancer had a brief one-day hiatus on Wednesday due to the England men’s national football team’s friendly against Austria.
Who has already been revealed on The Masked Dancer?
The first contestant eliminated from this year’s series of The Masked Dancer UK was Viper, who was revealed to be Diversity member Jordan Banjo.
Next was Flamingo, who went out on the second day and was unmasked as Louise Redknapp.
The third competitor to be axed was Beetroot, who turned out to be Dita Von Teese, followed the next day by Rubber Chicken, revealing Eddie the Eagle behind the mask.
Episode five saw a vicious double elimination, with Beagle being revealed to be Christopher Dean and Llama being unmasked as Zoe Ball.
The semi-final resulted in a second double elimination, with Craig Revel Horwood being ousted out of the competition as Knickerbocker Glory and Kelly as Frog.
The final of The Masked Dancer UK airs tonight at 7.30pm on ITV.
