There was a double elimination on the ITV show tonight as the second celebrity found themselves having to take off their mask and finally reveal their true identity after weeks of guessing.

Fans on social media were left shocked by the big reveal - with now just five celebrities left to battle it out to be crowned the champion of the fourth series of the UK hit show.
Daisy May Cooper was revealed as OtterDaisy admitted she was "exhausted" by the end of the show but didn't want to leave.
"It's the best job I've ever done but near the end I was absolutely exhausted. I was gutted to leave because I really fancied the Phoenix…So fit," she quipped, as she joked that she was doing the show for the money.

Katherine Ryan was unmasked as Pigeon last weekend (ITV)Last week, Katherine Ryan was revealed to be Pigeon, despite an incredible performance of Fight For This Love.
"The Masked Singer is one of very few shows that we can all thoroughly enjoy as a family. I love theatre and thought that even though I’m not a professional singer, I could have some fun and sell it on personality while surprising my children with the reveal," she said of her decision to join this series of the show, as she admitted she couldn't wait to surprise her kids.
The comedienne loved her pigeon costume as it allowed her to hide her pregnancy bump.
Only a few celebrities remain in the show! (ITV)She said: "I was quite pregnant while filming and I thought the big pigeon costume would hide that. It was important for me that the character had a face because some of them don’t, but I personally connect better to the characters with faces. I felt like it was important to represent a strong pensioner and I loved that Pigeon was all comedy and not trying to be attractive for anyone else."
To try and put the judges off who she really was, Katherine adopted an Essex accent.
"I was flattered that the panel thought I might actually be from Essex like Gemma Collins or Stacey Solomon. They even guessed Maya Jama which - to be honest - I’m mistaken for often even without a mask. We are very similar. Both stunning and talented," she quipped.
