The Masked Singer Unveiled
This year's Christmas special of The Masked Singer was a real treat, with some iconic figures hiding behind those famous masks. But who were they?
Underneath the figgy pudding costume, it was none other than radio legend Scott Mills, and the mistletoe mask revealed the incredible Baroness Floella Benjamin. However, the ultimate winner, and the star who took home the Mistletoe trophy, was Dermot O'Leary, a well-known presenter and broadcaster.
And the Christmas Crown Goes To...
Now, let's talk about Strictly Come Dancing. Karen Carney took home the trophy in the latest series, but who reigned supreme in the Christmas special? It was TV personality Scarlett Moffatt, who, with her partner Vito Coppola, waltzed their way to victory. Scarlett was overjoyed, calling their perfect score of 40 points "the greatest gift ever at Christmas."
Gladiators: A Celebrity Showdown
But here's where it gets controversial... In the celebrity edition of Gladiators, fitness coach Joe Wicks and presenter Vogue Williams emerged as the champions. They beat the dynamic duo of reality star Sam Thompson and boxer Nicola Adams. And get this - Joe even survived a fierce encounter with Gladiator Viper, who was disqualified after a hard hit to Joe's head during the duel challenge.
Joe was thrilled with the result, praising his partner Sam for being "an amazing competitor."
The King's Speech: A Uniting Message
And this is the part most people miss... The King's annual Christmas message was the most-watched TV programme on Christmas Day, with over 6.5 million viewers tuning in. In his speech from Westminster Abbey, the King emphasized the importance of unity during challenging times. He said, "When I meet people of different faiths, I find it incredibly encouraging to see how much we share... Our diverse communities give us the strength to ensure that right always triumphs over wrong."
