MASKED singer fans were left convinced that a 90s sitcom legend is in fact the true identity of Pigeon.
Following a number of clues dropped before Pigeon’s performance this week, viewers quickly took to Twitter and claimed it was Lesley Joseph, 77, who starred in Birds Of A Feather.
Fans were convinced it’s Lesley, who played maneater Dorien Green, when Pigeon told fans at home: “Don’t be shy – you know that I do love a natter! In fact, that’s got to be one of my top ten favourite things to do.”
When Lesley appeared in Birds Of a Feather she was a notorious gossip who lived next door to Tracey [Linda Robson] and Sharon [ Pauline Quirk].
And the clues continued as Pigeon added: “I’m especially happy to speak up about things I believe in. Us birds, we’ve got to stick together, after all, we’re all birds of a feather.”
This led fans to firmly believe it was Lesley. Taking to Twitter one fan said: “I think that Pigeon is Lesley Joseph.”
And another said: “I do think Pigeon is one of the girls in #Birdsofafeather. I was guessing Lesley Joseph as I think I have heard her sing in the past.”
Judge Jonathan Ross believed that the strong Essex accent was over accentuated when he said: “That can’t be real.” And Rita Ora also suggested it was being “put on.”
Initially however, fans thought it was former Birds Of A Feather and Loose Women star Linda Robson.
