ITV announces that The Masked Dancer will return for a second series in 2022.

The Masked Dancer will return for a second series in 2022, ITV has announced.

The first series of the spinoff of The Masked Singer was stripped over a week in May and June, averaging around 4 million viewers.

The second series will run to eight 90-minute episodes and will again be hosted by Joel Dommett, although ITV has yet to confirm who will be on the judging panel for the new run.

Katie Rawcliffe, ITV's head of entertainment commissioning, said: "Only on The Masked Dancer would dancing flamingos, frogs and car washes keep the nation on the edge of their seats, so we're very happy to bring back more of the same bonkers entertainment in 2022."

The recommission comes amid uncertainty over Britain's Got Talent, which had been due to begin filming in January but could be delayed by the emergence of the new Omicron variant of coronavirus.
