Peter Crouch, Stephen Mulhern and Lee Mack 'join Masked Singer as guest judges'

Peter Crouch, Stephen Mulhern and Lee Mack are to join 'The Masked Singer' as guest judges.

The former England striker made a guest judge appearance on 'The Masked Dancer' last year, and the star clearly impressed as he is to appear on 'The Masked Singer' on Saturday (04.02.23).

Peter, Stephen and Lee will join regular panellists Jonathan Ross, Davina McCall, Rita Ora and Mo Gilligan for the quarter-finals.

A source told The Sun newspaper's TV Biz column: “The Masked Singer remains a huge Saturday night show for ITV, with over five million viewers last weekend.

"They’ve thrown the budget at a raft of star panellists as they cruise towards the big finale next month."

It comes as comedian Katherine Ryan was the latest star to be unmasked on the show.

She was unveiled as Pigeon last weekend, and after removing the mask she said: "I can only do sort of an Essex accent because I watch so much ITV. I love reality TV. I love The GC! I love Cheryl and I used to do a bit of roast comedy in my act about her so I feel like it's beautiful karma that I went off on her song.

"I have a month left. I feel like I have a baby's foot in my lung at most times and it is actually harder than I thought. But you can't tell my daughter anything because she would spill it to the whole school so she'll be finding out along with everyone else!"

Judges Davina, Rita, Jonathan, and Mo opted to save Jacket Potato from the bottom two and sent them through to the next round.
