Masked Singer bosses forced to 'sit on hands' to avoid leaking ITV show spoilers
The Masked Singer bosses admit they “sit on their hands” and struggle not to post messages on social media telling fans their guesses are way off.Every Saturday night when the ITV show is on air, Twitter and Facebook go into meltdown.Viewers post pictures and theories over which celebrities they think are hiding behind the masks - and by the end of the night, many believe they have cracked the cryptic clues and solved the stars' identities.However, the chiefs at Bandicoot TV - who are responsible for making the show - confess that they have a hard job not to jump on their phones and computers to tell folk they are wrong.Executive producer Derek McLean said: "I love the fact that there are core groups of super-fans, forums and conspiracy theorists."I have to really sit on my hands on a Sunday morning when I see the posts and not start replying to these people and say ‘That wasn’t it you’re wrong’ and ‘That wasn’t a clue, you have got that wrong’."I have to sit on my hands the whole time."Tonight the final three characters Panda, Robobunny and Mushroom will be unmasked.Before they are, they will get to sing one more time and also perform duets with characters from previous series such as Queen Bee, Robin and Hedgehog.Fans have claimed the cryptic clues for the 2022 series have been very hard.However Derek explains: "It is an eight week guessing game."If you guessed who they were in episode one or two there is nowhere for us to go.
