The Masked Singer and The 1% Club return dates confirmed by ITV – and they’re soon

by

ITV is gearing up for 2026 with fresh seasons of popular shows like The Masked Singer UK and The 1% Club already confirmed.

The popular show, The Masked Singer, returns for its seventh season on Saturday, January 3rd at 6:30 PM on ITV1, with another episode airing the following day, Sunday, January 4th.

Davina McCall, Maya Jama, Jonathan Ross, and Mo Gilligan are returning as the detectives on the show, and each week they’ll be joined by different guest stars to help figure out the masked celebrities.

A fresh group of well-known celebrities will perform in disguise, singing for both a live audience and a panel of celebrity judges.

As a huge fan of The Masked Singer, I’m always amazed by the incredible talent they get! This year’s contestants are joining a seriously impressive list of performers who’ve been under those masks – we’re talking legends like Dionne Warwick, Ne-Yo, and even Richie Sambora! Plus, it’s not just singers; they’ve had everyone from Prue Leith and Daisy May Cooper to Gregory Porter and Sir Lenny Henry giving it a go. Honestly, the range of people who’ve been on that show is just wild – Glenn Hoddle, Lorraine Kelly, Jason Manford, Jake Shears… it’s a total mix!

Lee Mack is hosting a new series of The 1% Club, challenging viewers with tricky puzzles. It starts on Saturday, January 3rd at 9pm on ITV1.

The popular, award-nominated show is back for a fifth season! Each episode starts with 100 players, but only those who can answer incredibly difficult questions – ones that only 1% of the nation knows the answer to – will have a chance to win up to £100,000.

ITV says The 1% Club is a massive success, becoming the biggest new quiz show in over ten years, worldwide.

I’m a big fan of this show, and it’s amazing how many people are watching! Each episode regularly gets over six million viewers, and since it first came out three years ago, it’s been streamed more than 40 million times – reaching a total of 43 million viewers overall. It’s really become a phenomenon!
