Masked Singer fans convinced Carol Vorderman is behind costume - but they're wrong

I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! and The Masked Singer combined their equally popular series to create a one-off special episode, and viewers are completely obsessed.

The two ITV shows have come together for the exclusive TV event tonight, and viewers have now called for producers to make the one-off episode a permanent fixture.

The Masked Singer has taken on a jungle theme which mimics the beloved programme as it makes it's explosive return tonight as the stars of 2022 have returned to the Australian jungle, after two years of being filmed in the UK due to coronavirus restrictions.

Excited ITV viewers saw the unidentifiable celebrities dressed head to toe in an array of crazy costumes adhering to the nature theme such as kangaroos and witchetty grubs.

Jonathan Ross, Rita Ora, Davina McCall and Mo Gilligan all returned as judges as they try their best to figure out which former I'm A Celebrity stars are behind the extravagant costumes.

And as the first Masked Singer, Witchetty Grub made their way to the stage, viewers were left convinced that former I'm A Celeb star Carol Vorderman was the celebrity hiding behind the bizarre costume.

After the judges made guesses on who the star might be - including Gemma Collins, Kim Woodburn, and Lisa Snowdon - viewers were convinced it could be nobody else other than former Countdown star, Carol Vorderman.

"It's Carol, 100%," one viewer tweeted, while a second added: "How can nobody else see that it's Carol Vorderman," another added.

"Yes all the clues lead to Carol," someone else insisted.

Despite their wild guesses, it was proved that both the judges and viewers were wrong as the actual celebrity behind the mask was unveiled as none other than Alison Hammond.

The This Morning presenter left viewers completely stunned with her vocal abilities as she belted out Moving On Up by M People.

Alison admitted that she felt the judges wouldn't have guessed it was her, given the fact she entered the show several weeks into the madness.

There's no doubt that Alison made an incredible impression on ITV viewers as they gushed over her voice.

Meanwhile, in the shake-up of the original format, presenter Joel Dommett was put through his paces, where instead of earning food for camp, he was tasked with hunting down the clues for the judging panel.
