What happened to Red Panda on The Masked Singer?

Finally viewers were able to see Red Panda take to the stage for the very first time on The Masked Singer this series.

The character, dressed in a sooty hi-vis firefighter overalls and a helmet with a flames and bucket symbol, was removed from the first episode of the ITV show at the beginning of the month and hasn’t been since until tonight.

In a last minute turn of events on January 3, Red Panda was pulled from the programme by the broadcaster due to “potential insensitivities” in the wake of the Swiss bar fire that killed 40 people.

An ITV spokesperson previously said: “In light of the tragic events in Switzerland, we took the decision to remove Red Panda’s performance on The Masked Singer in tonight’s programme owing to potential insensitivities within the theme and lyrics of the song.
