David and Frankie Seaman have become the fifth act to be eliminated from The Masked Dancer after they were unveiled as Pillar and Post after they were eliminated from the competition due to Frankie suffering an injury.
The revelation comes after news that viewers would see a famous face quit the series early this week after suffering a horror fall backstage.
The contestants were forced to pull out of the wacky ITV dance competition after taking a tumble and injuring their ankle in rehearsals.

The news means three people will be unmasked in tonight’s show instead of the previously planned two.
Host Joel Dommett teased a shock triple elimination during last week’s instalment but failed to mention it was due to one star bowing out early.

Gareth Malone was unmasked as Cactus during last week’s episode and became the fourth person to be sent home this series.
After his unveiling, the choirmaster revealed he went to great lengths to keep his involvement in the show a secret from his family and friends.
He went as far as to tell his parents he was working with Tom Cruise as a justification for why he would be late to their 50th wedding anniversary celebrations.

He also shared his suspicions of which celebrities may be behind the characters remaining on the show.
Fans have already seen Strictly winner Stacey Dooley be unveiled as Prawn Cocktail, actress Joanna Page revealed and Desperate Housewives hunk Jesse Metcalfe unmasked as Astronaut.

Still to be unmasked are Onomatopoeia, Tomato Sauce, Sea Slug, Scissors, Pillar and Post, Candlestick, Pearly King, and Odd Socks.
Viewers previously took to social media to theorise the identity of Pearly King as celebrity chef Gino D’Acampo – although Eastenders Mick Carter actor Danny Dyer seems the most popular guess for the identity of this costume.
