Dancing On Ice fans spot clue that John Barrowman is The Masked Singer's Unicorn

Dancing On Ice viewers have spotted a vital clue that 'proves' John Barrowman is on The Masked Singer.

After Saturday night's launch show, many viewers were convinced that John was in the Unicorn costume with a rainbow mane.

The hints were that Unicorn has always "stood out from the crowd", "been different" and has "flair", describing themselves as "a bit of a show pony".

But there wasn't much evidence that John was behind the mask until he came out during Sunday night's Dancing On Ice opener.

The 'fa-u-lous' new judge came stomping out onto the ice, bizarrely in the same studio that The Masked Singer is filmed, and was lifted into the arms of fellow judge Ashley Banjo.

And Dancing On Ice fans flocked to Twitter to claim that John was moving in the same way as Unicorn did on The Masked Singer.

One viewer said: "Unicorn is definitely John Barrowman!!"

"I see @JohnBarrowman isn't dressed as a unicorn tonight," added another.

A third said: "John Barrowman just came out on dancing on ice, doing the same dance the 'Unicorn' did on masked singer last night"

A lot of people guessed that the galloping Unicorn, who sang Kate Bush's Babooshka, was the Doctor Who star.

One claimed that it was "definitely John Barrowman" on Twitter.

However, another wrote: "I’m confused. The unicorn sounds like John Barrowman and Gareth Gates at the same time. #themaskedsinger ."

Another guessed: " #TheMaskedSinger if Unicorn isn’t John Barrowman I will eat my hooves."

While another wrote they expect dancer and TV judge Louis Spence to be underneath the fabulous face.

John slotted straight into the Dancing On Ice panel on Sunday - and wasn't afraid to give the celebs some early criticism.

After Joe Swash skated, he said: "It wasn’t fab-u-lous yet. It's hardest coming out first. it's new beginning the show. It's energetic and fun.

"I want to see you more comfortable in your skating but a great first attempt.
