Who is Knickerbocker Glory on The Masked Dancer? Fans think specific clue has given it away

As is stands, Strictly Come Dancing's Craig Revel Horwood is the most popular guess for Knickerbocker Glory, with professional dancer Oti Mabuse agreeing.

Is Knickerbocker Glory Craig Revel Horwood?

Strictly's Craig Revel Horwood is currently the frontrunner when it comes to The Masked Dancer's Knickerbocker Glory.

Oti was convinced Horwood was behind the mask, after she got a close up on the contestant on Thursday night's show as she insisted nobody walks the way Knickerbocker did, except Craig who she works with on the BBC One dance show.

Some viewers thought the Mind the Gaps clue was a reference to judge and the fact he won a cooking show with his signature dish of jellied prawn cocktails.

Others have pointed out that Knickerbocker's dance moves are very similar to Horwood's.

Craig is ticking a lot of boxes, so we really wouldn't be surprised to see his face when the dancing dessert is unmasked!

Is Knickerbocker Glory Debbie McGee?

"I hope I have the recipe for sweet success again this week," Knickerbocker Glory said.

"This isn’t an all-star talent show. But, yes, I can juggle. Not a lot but if I had an assistant, then maybe. I have a little confession to make, I dabble in music here and there. I love the illusion of what is real and what is not."

Fans thought this clue was a clear sign it was Debbie McGee, who famously was an assistant for her husband magician Paul Daniels.

However, one fan was keen to point out that Debbie McGee is just 5ft 1in, however, ahead of her dance off with Beetroot who was revealed to be Dita Von Teese and is 5ft 5in, Knickerbocker appeared much taller.

Our heads are spinning!

Is Knickerbocker Glory Stephen Mulhern?

Davina McCall thinks funnyman and presenter Stephen Mulhern might be behind this costume, after picking up on the two ice cream sundaes during Knickerbocker's performance. The other judges thought this was a clue that Knickerbocker is part of a double act, whereas McCall thinks Knickerbocker could work with a famous double act. Mulhern famously works alongside Ant and Dec for Saturday Night Takeaway.

Is Knickerbocker Glory Joe Black?

Fans think Drag Race star Joe Black could be Knickerbocker Glory, with many sharing their thoughts on Twitter about the drag queen who appeared on the recent second series of the BBC show.

"Tell me Knickerbocker Glory on The Masked Dancer isn’t @misterjoeblack" one said.

Is Knickerbocker Glory Baga Chipz?

Another Drag star who has been suggested is Baga Chipz. But would she do a show like The Masked Dancer? Absolutely. The Drag Race star is frequently hilarious and she has a ton of energy that always radiates from her - she would be perfect for this and we agree that she is a strong contender to be under the mask.

Is Knickerbocker Glory Susanna Reid?

It could well be that Susanna Reid has decided to once again show off her dancing skills after competing on Strictly Come Dancing several years ago. The Good Morning Britain presenter is a staple at ITV and we can imagine her mornings now being Piers Morgan free would make her feel the need to dance with jubilation. And where better to do it?

Is Knickerbocker Glory Susan Boyle?

Susan Boyle certainly has the pipes to sing a belter of a song, but does she have secret dance talents that are about to be unleashed upon the nation? It would be amazing if it did turn out to be the BGT winner, but we would put her as least likely to be right out of the main guesses so far.

Is Knickerbocker Glory Alan Carr?

While we do not think the frame was quite right to be Alan Carr, the outfit could be deceiving and, honestly, we would love it if Alan Carr was revealed to be the person under the ice-cream suit.

Carr is one of Britain's best-loved presenters and we know that he has the kind of humour that would be needed to be a contestant on this show - so perhaps he could be the one behind the mask.

The Masked Dancer is on ITV daily at 7pm, except Wednesday, 2nd June. Episodes are also available to stream on the ITV Hub. For something else to watch, check out our TV Guide or visit our dedicated Entertainment hub.
