The celeb panel had their thinking caps on again as they tried to work out the identities of the eight remaining characters on The Masked Singer. Panellists Jonathan Ross, Davina McCall, Mo Gilligan and Rita Ora had another go at guessing 'who's that behind the mask?' on the zany ITV singing show.
The powerful-voiced Jellyfish took to the stage again, this time to perform Leave A Light On by Tom Walker. Rather than just guessing, Jonathan said he 'knows' that is's Glee star Amber Riley.
"I know who this is," he told host Joel Dommett. "I have heard this person sing live, and that's why I think I've got it." Referring to the clues given about their identity, he said: "There was lot of things about 'love and overjoy' - you could say a sense of joy is a sense of Glee and I think it is someone from Glee."

He continued: "She has been a judge on a talent show and the song she chose this evening Leave A Light On, I think she has her own song with a similar titie. l I think it is Amber Riley."
Fellow judge Mo praised: "Oh my gosh that is so good." And viewers watching at home agreed that American singer Amber, 36, is the right guess.

Amber Riley was a judge on let it shine?" And @veepsx wrote: "Yeah if jelly fish isn’t Amber Riley then I’m going to be shooketh to my core."
When Jellyfish previously performed two weeks ago fans thought they instantly recognised her voice as she belted out Take Me To Church. One clue was that Jellyfish is "synonymous with mononymous", and Amber is also known mononymously - a name composed of only one word - as RILEY.
She played Glee Club singer Mercedes Jones on the Fox comedy-drama series Glee from 2009 to 2015. For her performance on the much-loved series she and the rest of the cast won a Screen Actors Guild Award and have been nominated for a Grammy Award.
She won a Laurence Olivier Award for Best Actress in a Musical for her portrayal of Effie White in the West End debut of Dreamgirls. If Jellyfish is Amber it will be a double disguise triumph because last year she won the American series of The Masked Singer as harp.
