Fans of The Masked Singer believe they’ve finally figured out which celebrity is hiding behind Otter’s mask.
Otter’s identity has remained a mystery ever since the bonkers ITV singing show returned last month, but for some viewers the mystery has been solved.
Clues include a sign spelling out famous drama school RADA, their VT being set in a water park, and that they’ve done “serious” roles, suggesting an actor could be behind the mask.

And last week, when the animal character performed a dazzling rendition of Dolly Parton’s hit 9 to 5, judges Rita Ora and Jonathan Ross reckoned it could be an actor singing to them.

The panel has already guessed the likes of actresses Fiona Shaw and Zoë Wanamaker to former Great British Bake Off host Mel Giedroyc.
But another name doing the rounds on social media is soap star Patsy Kensit, who played Sadie King in Emmerdale from 2004 until 2006.
She recently joined the cast of rival soap EastEnders as Lola Pierce’s (Danielle Amy Louise Harold) long-lost mum Emma.

It’s not like she hasn’t had singing experience either, because she was the lead singer of pop band Eighth Wonder in the 1980s.
Fans have started throwing Patsy’s name into the ring on Twitter, with one writing: “Definitely think Otter is Patsy Kensit.”
A second noticed the character sounded remarkably like Patsy as they tweeted: “Otter is definitely Patsy Kensit. It sounds SO much like her this week..”

A third commented: “Otter has anyone i think is patsy kensit …the voice matches.”
Another wrote: “She appeared as the Grand High Witch of all the World at the Children’s Party at the Palace in celebration of the Queen’s 80th birthday in 2006. She was also in casualty.”
Indeed, one of Otter’s clues could be a nod to Casualty as Otter said: “You might remember me from something a little medical sounding.”
Otter made it through to this week after comedian Katherine Ryan revealed herself as Pigeon last weekend.
