Author: Alex RossPublished 14th Feb 2022

If you're a fan of bonkers ITV show The Masked Singer you're probably gutted series three is now over, with Panda being crowned the winner during Saturday's (12th February) final, being unmasked as Natalie Imbruglia.

However, don't panic too much, because it's now being reported the hit show has been renewed for a further two series.

Due to air in 2023, the next series will follow the same pattern as the previous three, airing eight 90-minute episodes.

The news comes as the final of series three aired on Saturday 12th February, involving characters Panda, Mushroom and Robobunny.

Finishing in third place, Robobunny was unmasked as Westlife star Mark Feehily, before Mushroom identified herself as Welsh songstress Charlotte Church.

After weeks of guessing by the public at home, and judges Jonathan Ross, Davina McCall, Rita Ora and Mo Gilligan, Australian singer Natalie Imbruglia unmasked herself as Panda, following a performance of 'Story Of My Life' by One Direction.

Although many did guess Natalie's identity, other guesses included Lulu, Miley Cyrus, Frankie Bridge, Pixie Lott and Giovanna Fletcher.
