The Masked Singer viewers 'unmask' Pigeon's identity as they work out accent twist

The Masked Singer viewers are convinced they have uncovered Pigeon's identity.

Joel Dommett returned to host the show tonight as a batch of celebrities performed a selection of songs in elaborate costumes. Judges Davina McCall, Rita Ora, Jonathan Ross and Mo Gilligan have been in their detective chairs trying to guess the voice behind the costume.

Pigeon wowed the fans with a performance of Yeah by Usher on Saturday's special Cluefest episode. The character speaks with a distinctive Essex accent, which has led to widespread speculation Gemma Collins is behind the outfit.

Millie said: "Pigeon better be Gemma Collins."

Taz posted: "I still think it's Gemma Collins."

Carol tweeted: "Definitely Gemma Collins."

However, Davina suggested it could actually be comedian Emily Atack due to the character's hilarious performances. Fans following the show on Twitter agreed with the guess and pointed out that Emily does an accurate impression of the TOWIE star.

@surviving2022 said: "Emily Atack can do an amazing impression of GC also..."

Mark added: "I think pigeon is Emily Atack @EmAtack cos she’s good at impressions"

Mandy posted: "Pigeon’s “voice” does sound like Emily Atack’s impression of Gemma Collins, which would be very meta"
