Judges Davina McCall, Mo Gilligan and Jonathan Ross will be joined by Strictly Come Dancing’s Oti Mabuse to guess the character’s true identities.
Oti was announced as a judge back in March, replacing Rita Ora – who was on the judging panel for The Masked Singer.
At the time, the pro dancer said: “I’m so thrilled and honoured to be joining the panel on The Masked Dancer.”
“I’m a huge fan of The Masked Singer and I loved the US Masked Dancer so I just can’t wait to start on this show.”
“As a dancer I will be watching the dancers intently looking for clues – it’s going to be so much fun!!!”
