Joel Dommett needs better gag writers. They can't even manage a decent egg pun, and most of ILX could do that in their sleep.

think you're right about Alex Brooker then!Maypole I wondered if it was a Sugababe, then clocked the 'Sweet Melody' clue- I'm not sure which one though...Dippy Egg I'm now wondering if it's David Tennant, purely because of the Scottish thing, halots of the panel seem convinced that a person's actual name will be written down as a clue.

I've got to say that tonight's reveal of Lorraine Kelly as Owl was almost as good as last week's.

Called tonight's one on Twitter.
Before she opened her mouth on week one I'd called Maypole Kimberley Wyatt so I'm taking Melody (Thornton) as an indirect clue.
Still think Dippy Egg is Will Mellor, but also wondering if the 500 Miles thing is a clue to the Brian Potter/Andy Pipkin thing and pointing to someone involved in that which is giving me minor Paddy McGuinness vibes

Joel's suit looks like he's had an accident with a paint roller.

(apologies if that joke's already been made but I just switched on the TV)

were Maypole's group that famous over here? both a bit meh. Air Fryer sounded like Dawn French's voice today and now I can't shake that image even though I know it isn't her, but my brain has latched onto it!

I try to avoid social media on this as i like guessing but I went on YouTube to rewatch a couple of songs and someone is insistently commenting on who they think Air Fryer is (not anyone I've ever heard of)

Bit annoying that Maypole is out as she's obviously the best singer left, still I wasn't aware of her before, only knew one of the Pussycat Dolls so guess that's been useful at least.When they do the "TAKE IT OFF! TAKE IT OFF!" and there's a brief clip of Rita saying "I can't wait to find out who it is!" I feel a brief flush of disgust at myself for watching this show.

Bigfoot has to be stopped.

So obvious that Eiffel Tower was Tiffany and the judges had clearly decided they wouldn't name her, Jonathan Ross even going for Debbie Gibson smh.

I think stopping *spoiler person who we're all bored of now* is tricky because it's an audience vote and the new audience at each recording aren't tired of the schtick as it's new to them. I assume that's how the recording works? Also how did Lorraine not see any of her fellow contestants kicking around during recording, or we're meant to believe she didn't.
It's still a fun programme despite all its flaws and host and panellists though.

When Airfryer went out it was so obvious they had to tell Rita who it was and then feed her a line about how one of the clues worked into that person's identity so she could sound like she knew who it was.

Xpost they are all kept in isolation until showtime, at which point they are chaperoned amongst the other contestants

This is the first series where I haven't really cared much who anyone is. I think the previous ones there have all been ones I'm close to guessing or recognise the voice. It's less fun this time, and/ or there are more people I'm meh about.

I'm half watching the final while doing other things. I actually missed almost the first half an hour because I forgot it was on. I've never had much luck guessing who the singers are but it's not mattered to me really. I was enjoying the series but for some reason tonight I'm not entertained by a singing bigfoot or piranha.

Also it doesn't help that Joel is more annoying than usual.

xp Yeah me too. Though piranha is fine I guess. He's my son's favourite at least.

Probably a good move to cut out the "I can't wear this uniform / without some compromises" from Bigfoot's version of The One And Only.
