Many viewers are often left puzzled over who it is behind the mask, having been given cryptic clues during each episode. But fans are now certain they've already worked out Knitting's true identity.

Clues given as they made their first appearance featured a "knitting morning", an accent judge Davina McCall thought was Lancastrian, a magpie, and a curtain. Knitting also said he or she could be a "little bit crafty".

Knitting on The Masked Singer (ITV)

After a great rendition of Becky Hill and David Guetta's hit Remember, Knitting gave one final clue in the form of a riddle. They said: "Knitting is easy, it's the crossing of sticks.

"Count all of your stitches, there should be 26". Judges' guesses included actress Jane Horrocks and TV presenter AJ Odudu, but viewers at home think they have discovered who it really is.

Taking to Twitter, Shane said: "Knitting is Claire from Steps, trying to sing with an accent. It HAS to be". Liam said: "Knitting is 100% Claire Richards", while Amanda said: "Is Knitting Lisa from Steps? 5, 6, 7, 8 add up to 26 and one magpie (one for sorrow)?"

Zoe said: "Omg #TheMaskedSinger knitting is definitely @_ClaireRichards . After 25 years, I'd know that voice anywhere!!" and Gareth said: "Knitting is @_ClaireRichards by a mile".
