* AwesomeDearBoy: When Duck was asked why she did it, [[spoiler:revealed to be Skin from Skunk Anansie]], she replied that the show sounded like fun and something new for her to try.
* FakeNationality: Some of the contestants will put on fake accent's to try and disguise their real voice. Swan's FakeAmerican accent almost worked, until Jonathan Ross managed to work out who they were at the last minute. Bush Baby's FakeAustralian accent completely worked, with them remaining unguessed until their reveal. However, Bagpipes FakeScot accent was seen through straightaway, as it sounded too much like a non native’s idea of what a Scottish accent should be like to be authentic.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen:
** Sausage's costume was originally just going to be the cone of chips, but the designers couldn't work out how to give it a face and ended up adding a sausage to it.
** The costume of Dragon was intended for the first series, and was going to be more serious and scary than the friendlier costume that the designers ended up making, which they felt turned out better.
%%** A costume idea for the third series was a pair of boiled eggs, but they scrapped it when they realised it could look too much like a pair of breasts.

* LyingCreator: After episode one, a lot of people on Twitter had correctly worked out Hedgehog's real identity. [[spoiler:Jason Manford]] then took to Twitter to claim that he ''wasn't'' the Hedgehog, and then began to suggest that it could be either Michael Ball or Alfie Boe underneath the mask. Later on, he started to suggest comedians who could sing well, like Rufus Hound, or Matt Lucas. After he was unmasked, Matt Lucas called him out on Twitter by saying "the gall of this man".
