Many of the clues in the first segment appeared to make references to ‘court’ and ‘having authority’.

There were some references made which could apply to TV star Keith Lemon.

As well as asking viewers if they enjoyed ‘lemon’ in their water, Candlestick also spoke of ‘burning bright’ and danced to Take That’s hit Relight My Fire, which could potentially relate to his signature ginger locks…

Candlestick showed off their serious moves, which we know Olly is pretty comfortable in delivering from his days performing on The X Factor, and on tour.

Meanwhile, other fans think the clue of the contestant pointing to their knee is a telling one, with Olly having had knee surgery in the past.

Candlestick also knows what it is like ‘to lose, but win’, which could perhaps refer to Olly not winning The X Factor, but still finding a large amount of success.

The Masked Dancer airs Satuday nights on ITV.
