| Week | Clue |
|---|---|
| 1 | "Oh! Hallo! You caught me havin' a wee sing song. I am Bagpipes. A set of bagpipes are very traditional & you might know me for havin' started a tradition or two of my own. I'm no stranger to an instrument & there's a wee bit of Scottish in my past. As for how I'm goin' to play in The Masked Singer, well there's goin' to be some tough competition out there, no mistake. It's not going to be as easy as AC/DC, but I've been in this situation before, & come out on top, so let's just have some fun." |
| 3 | “In my last perforamce, I rocked out. The panel think they’re getting close. ‘Ello! So you’re questioning my accent are you? Honestly, if I was trying to disguise it, it would be a very cheap trick. But here’s the truth, the thing I’m most known for isn’t actually my first love. I’m going to get into so much trouble for saying that. But I think it’s healthy, to be honest. And being healthy, that’s important to me. Straight talking is my middle name. No beating around the bush. That said, there’s one thing I won’t tell you, and that’s who I am. I’m no grass! So you’ll just have to ace this test for yourselves.” |
