Rob Beckett says he’ll take ITV to court after he was ‘replaced as Traffic Cone’ as Masked Singer wind-up continues

thesun.co.uk:

COMEDIAN Rob Beckett tweeted that he'll take ITV to court - saying they replaced him on The Masked Singer. The stand-up star, 36, continued his long-running wind-up about being the show's Traffic Cone last night.

Rob, who has long insisted he was the character, continued the pretence even after it was revealed to be Aled Jones. Tagging in the show and its broadcaster he tweeted: "Livid @ITV replaced me with @realaled and re filmed the reveal because I let slip." He added: "Real Phoebe from Friends Smelly Cat energy." When ITV tweeted a reply from its official account with a laughing emoji the star replied: "See you in court." They wrote back: "Bring the ‘original footage’ with you" alongside a winking emoji.

Elsewhere, Rob congratulated Aled on his performance on The Masked Singer saying: "Well done mate.
