I Can See Your Voice is a British television mystery music game show that premiered on 10 April 2021 on BBC One. It is an adaptation of the South Korean programme of the same name.
Gameplay[]
Format[]
A guest artist and group of two contestants are presented with a group of six "mystery singers" — some of them are good singers, and some are bad. Contestants must attempt to eliminate bad singers from the group by guessing who they are without hearing them sing. They get assistance from clues by "celebrity panelists" over the course of four rounds. Contestants will eliminate one to two singers at the end of each round and then proceeding to perform on the "stage of truth". At the end, the winning mystery singer is revealed as good or bad by means of a duet with one of the guest artists.[1]
Rewards[]
If the last remaining mystery singer is good, the contestants win a jackpot prize of £10,000. On the other hand, if the last remaining mystery singer is bad, the same amount is given to that singer instead.

There are six individuals of mystery singers standing on a platform to keep identities concealed until the "stage of truth" performance.
