After three seasons of the bonkers TV show, it was no surprise when The Masked Singer UK was renewed for another two seasons earlier this year, and now the start date for season four has been revealed.

Back in February, just two days after the third season finished, the production company behind The Masked Singer delighted fans with the news that the show would be returning, telling them: 'Exciting news for your Monday morning!', along with a video which confirmed there would be two more seasons of The Masked Singer to come.

However, with no release date announced, fans have been kept waiting nearly 10 months... Until now! According to TV adverts, the show will return on New Year's Day 2023.

Not a lot is known about the new season, but it will follow the previous three seasons and consist of eight 90-minute episodes.

Who are the judges on the show?

We will see the return of Mo Gilligan, Davina McCall, Rita Ora, and Jonathan Ross as judges for season 4 of the show, with Joel Dommett returning as the host.
