The Masked Dancer’s Cactus has been unmasked as BAFTA winning choirmaster Gareth Malone.
After performing on stage the contestants faced a studio vote which saw Sea Slug, Onomatopoeia and Tomato Sauce all saved.
Pearly King and Cactus then faced it off in a Dance Jam before the judges decided who would get unmasked before heading home.

Gareth, 46, is a well-known choirmaster and broadcaster who is best-known and recognised for appearing on TV in programmes like The Choir.
The choir master has a Royal link because he was awarded an OBE in 2012 for services to music
Speaking of his time on the show and leaving early on in the competition, Cactus – or should we say Gareth – said that “it was sad”.

He added: “I really love the team behind the stage, you know everyone works so hard and are so brilliant, the choreographers, I was really enjoying learning to dance but it was absolutely exhausting.”
He added: “I was not prepared for how hard it was going to be and how difficult it is to dance, so I was quite relieved really.”

Although he had mixed emotions of being sad and relieved, he went on to say: “I definitely felt like I left at the right point as obviously there are much better dancers than me.”
The unveiling was the conclusion of the fourth episode of the series, hosted by Joel Dommett.
The celebrity panel, which comprised of Oti Mabuse, Jonathan Ross, Davina McCall and Peter Crouch had the tough job of judging the masked dancers.
The Masked Dancer airs Saturday nights on ITV
