DAME Joan Collins took a hilarious swipe at TV presenter Bradley Walsh during tonight’s episode of The Masked Singer as she suggested he could be Traffic Cone.

The showbiz icon, 88, was in the studio as a guest judge on the wackiest singing competition in the history of television.

She joined the ITV show’s usual panelists, Jonathan Ross, Rita Ora, Davina McCall, and Mo Gilligan.

Not long into the episode, the glam star - known for not beating around the bush - went straight for the jugular as she hit out at Bradley Walsh

When Jonathan suggested the Chase presenter could be the face beneath Traffic Cone’s red-nosed, moustached facade, Joan agreed. 

“He is everywhere”, said the age-defying octogenarian with a completely straight face. 

The studio fell into hysterics as the straight-speaking screen legend added: “Every time I turn on the TV, there he is”.

Viewers appeared to love the witty dig just as much as Jonathan Ross, who clapped his hands and roared with laughter louder than anyone else. 

Some flocked to Twitter to share their thoughts on Joans first-class one-liner, with one simply writing: “It’s true”. 

A second added: "Not Dame Joan Collins coming with the Bradley Walsh shade. Love imagining her switching on the TV and screaming when it’s Bradley again”.

The megastar seemed to be a big hit all round, with others commenting on her presence on the bizarre reality series. 

One said: "Absolutely loving Dame Joan tonight”.

A second chimed in with: "I love Dame Joan. She’s so glamorous, and has so much gravitas & an aura of sophistication”.
