[15][3] On 19 August 2020, it was announced that British comedian Mo Gilligan would replace Ken Jeong on the panel for series two, due to travel restrictions from COVID-19 preventing his participation.

Maya Jama was announced as a replacement for Rita Ora (who became a panellist on the American version) on 25 September 2024, taking her place on the panel for series six.

With COVID-19 spreading and residents of the United Kingdom under lockdown, Dommett had to conference call the panellists where they had to guess the identities of three masked celebrities.

Rather than the typical costumes and masks that contestants usually wear on the show, the recordings were edited to hide each singer's face with a specific image.

The series had 12 contestants competing through seven episodes, and was hosted by Dommett, with Ross, Gilligan, McCall, and Oti Mabuse serving as panellists.

[33] It premiered on 29 May 2021,[34][35] filling in the late spring 2021 slot of Britain's Got Talent,[36] which had its upcoming series 15 postponed until 2022 due to health and safety concerns regarding the COVID-19 pandemic.

[38] In 2023 nothing was aired as a result of ITV’s coverage of the 2023 Rugby World Cup and by 2024 the broadcaster announced their overall decision to cancel the show in its entirety rather than renew it for a third series.

[41] John Thomson, who had previously competed in the second series as "Bush Baby", reprised his role to provide the panel with clues for the competitors.

Panda, Dragon, Unicorn, Badger and Traffic Cone starred on the tour with two new characters: Space Pug and Baby Dino, who were unmasked at every performance.
