The Masked Singer viewers are sure they know who Bigfoot is on the ITV series ahead of the finale.
While it's not a new guess, viewers stuck with their original thoughts when it came to the character on Saturday night after some new clues. Bigfoot was one of the five semi-finalists to perform on the ITV show for the panel ahead of next week's final.
Davina McCall, Rita Ora, Jonathan Ross and Mo Gilligan were joined by guest panellist Lorraine Kelly, as they and host Joel Dommett tried to figure out who was under the mask. Viewers at home had their say too, and the same name came up repeatedly.
After their performance, fans were sure Bigfoot was a Channel 4 star and comedian, with some of the panel believing the same. Alex Brooker was tipped to be unmasked as the character, with many viewers taking to X to share their thoughts.
One fan posted: "Yeah I’m also convinced Bigfoot is Alex Brooker!" as another said: "That Alex Brooker is the Bigfoot on the masked singer." A third fan wrote: "Sticking with Alex Brooker," while a fourth said: "Alex Brooker has survived longer than Grammy award winning Dionne Warwick and pussycat doll melody Thornton! I bloody love this show."

The Masked Singer viewers think they know which comedian and TV star is Bigfoot (ITV)It comes after a number of eliminations since the series began in December, with the first double exit airing last week. Last weekend we saw Dippy Egg unmasked as Davina’s pal Nicky Campbell in an emotional moment.
Nicky burst into tears as he performed, with Davina also crying at the sweet performance. That same night, Pussycat Dolls singer Melody Thornton was unmasked as Maypole.
Like with Nicky, none of the panel guessed Melody was under the mask, while Rita said it was obvious once she realised. The week before Melody’s unmasking, Owl was revealed to be ITV ’s Lorraine Kelly, who happened to be a guest panellist on the show in the latest episode.

Meanwhile, Rat was unmasked as Strictly Come Dancing judge Shirley Ballas a few weeks ago. Speaking about joining The Masked Singer, she said: "The worst part of performing in the costume is the head gets very hot, it feels quite claustrophobic.
“The best thing is that I’ve fallen in love with Rat and actually don’t want to leave him. I want him to be in my house! He’s a character I will hold close to my heart forever. I enjoyed my journey with Rat!"
The week prior it was revealed that Chicken Caesar was Alexander Armstrong. The TV star and comedian is known for the likes of Pointless, Armstrong and Miller and Classic FM. Explaining the slew of clues on the show, it was revealed the BRIT Award was actually the Classic BRIT Awards, which Alexander hosted.
Other clues included: "I'm a great Roman Explorer", which was a nod to presenting the documentary Rome's Invisible City. Elsewhere, "LXX is 70 in Roman numerals, a reference to Alexander's year of birth 1970", "Chicken Caesar's accent was a nod to Alexander being born in the North East" and "history and friend in the city, hinted to starring in Horrible Histories: The Movie with Kim Cattrall".
In week one, Weather unmasked as Dionne Warwick on the series. Music icon Dionne left the panel starstruck as she unveiled herself as the star under the costume.
She then shared her joy at being asked to do the series, but admitted the struggles she faced trying to disguise her voice on the show. Clues included being powerful and dominating, and weathering the storm - as well as references to Blues music.
