The Masked Singer has finally revealed the identity of Giant Joel, leaving fans shocked.
Saturday’s episode kicked off by unmasking Sir Mo Farah as the star posing as host Joel Dommett‘s doppelganger.
The character has been teased since the end of the Christmas special, which aired on Boxing Day.
Mo Gilligan guessed it was Mark Wright, while Davina McCall and Maya Jama went for Ant and Dec, but it was Jonathan Ross who got it right, by guessing it was the Olympic legend.
On Good Morning Britain earlier this week, Adil Ray also correctly guessed Giant Joel’s identity.
Speaking about what he thought of the costume when it was first unveiled, Joel said: ‘I thought, ‘Is my nose really that shape?’ Then everyone confirmed it is….and your teeth are that big!’

Joel also revealed that his wife Hannah Cooper has said he is not allowed to keep the costume following the show as they don’t have space.
He said: ‘My wife has said that I’m not allowed to keep it because we don’t have space, so I have told her that we need to buy a marginally bigger house.
‘Maybe we can turn it upside down and turn it into a really cool laundry bin or something.’
The presenter revealed that he has only shown Hannah the doppelganger and is ‘excited’ for the rest of his family to see it on the show.
He added: ‘I actually haven’t shown my family yet! I’m excited for them to see it. The only thing weirder than watching your son on the telly is watching a big version of your son on telly standing next to your son on telly!’
It comes after Joel revealed the awkward blunder he made when Maya Jama first joined the judging panel on The Masked Singer.
The show host, 39, said viewers should brace themselves for ‘twists and turns’ as the new series of episodes are set to air, adding that he even saw one contestant storm off the stage.
Series three, which aired on Saturday, January, 4, 2025 at 7pm on ITV1, was also the first time fans saw Maya’s debut as a panelist on the show.

Opening up on what it was like to film with the Love Island host, 30, Joel told The Sun he made one gaffe that made him ‘feel really bad’.
Explaining that he doesn’t really keep up with gossip, the presenter explained: ‘I remember, during the recording, I kept on singing a Stormzy song and then I felt really bad about it.
‘I’ve got this song in my head, I can’t stop singing it, then someone sort of dragged me aside and said, ‘That’s someone that just broke up’.
Stormzy and May a announced their shock split in July 2024 after taking to Instagram with a joint statement stating: ‘We fell madly in love in 2014, broke up in 2019, and then spent five years manoeuvring life apart.
They confirmed the breakup was ‘final’ after previously going their separate ways following a five year relationship in 2019 and reconnecting in August 2023.
