At the beginning of the new series of The Masked Singer UK tonight (January 4), Giant Joel was unmasked and revealed to be Mo Farah.
The character, which is a larger-than-life doppelganger of host Joel Dommett, was introduced to viewers during the Christmas special last week. However, their identity was finally unveiled.
Shane Ritchie, Sam Thompson, Mo Farah and Rylan Clark were some of the many names that viewers guessed were underneath the large head.

After making fans wait more than a week to find out their real identity, Giant Joel was revealed to be Olympic gold medalist Mo.
With the panel suggesting a different name each for Giant Joel, detective Jonathan Ross was correct in his guess.
