TV's most ridiculous guessing game, The Masked Singer, is back for series two!
Twelve more mystery celebrities are donning elaborate costumes and taking to the stage to perform, all the while doing their best to keep their identities concealed.
As we try to figure out who's behind the masks, here are all the clues we've gathered about Badger so far.

Badger: Week One
Badger confidently strutted into the studio to Status Quo's 'Down Down' before his motorbike-themed VT played out.
"Yo, I'm the badger," he said while playing air guitar. "The badger is a pretty unmistakable animal - yet life behind the mask means that my identity is going to be completely hidden. But that's nothing new to me.
"In my career I've been totally used to being anonymous. Seriously, there's been times when I've been on the street surrounded by people and no-one would have any idea it was me. Hopefully just like you guys.
"Think you can work me out? Tonight it's me versus Sausage - and I'm going to try and claw my way to victory."
Badger then impressed the judges with his rendition of Michael Buble's take on 'Feelin' Good', with guesses from the panel including David Myers, The Stig, Andy Serkis, Jamiroquai and Idris Elba.
For his judges' clue, Badger said: "I see things like a virtual world."
"Woah," he told the camera afterwards. "I had the whole place rockin' out there tonight but the panel? Way off."
Badger was beaten by Sausage in the studio audience vote but was later saved by the judges anyway, putting him through to the next round.
Our guess: This was perhaps the hardest of the night to guess - the clues suggest a guitarist in a band, someone big online or a radio DJ. Online rumours have suggested that it could be Ne-Yo but Badger appears to have an authentic British accent. Devoid of much other inspiration at this stage, however, we'll go with the flow and say Ne-Yo.
The Masked Singer continues Saturday at 7pm on ITV.
