ITV Masked Singer UK's Teeth 'exposed' as fans say 'cracked it'
The Masked Singer UK fans have been taking to social media in their droves to share their theories on the identity of Teeth, with many convinced they already know who it is
The Masked Singer UK's sixth series is in full swing on ITV, with fans eagerly trying to guess the celebrities behind the new group of characters. Three celebrities have already been revealed - Good Morning Britain's Kate Garraway and Bake Off's Prue Leith were unmasked as Spag Bol and Pegasus in the first episode. They were followed by 90s pop sensation Macy Gray, who was unveiled as Toad in the Hole on Saturday (January 11). Fans are now busy piecing together the cryptic clues to identify the remaining characters - Bear, Bush, Dressed Crab, Kingfisher, Pufferfish, Snail, Tattoo, Teeth and Wolf.
One character, Teeth, has caused quite a stir on social media, with many fans convinced they've figured out the famous face - or faces - behind the mask. One viewer took to Reddit last week, claiming they've "cracked" Teeth's clues, which they believe point to a well-known Irish duo. "Rewatched the clue VT and noticed an Irish tricolor flag on the side of the toy bus, and green and orange salad on a white plate too. There's also binoculars hanging on a map of Europe," they wrote. "So I've convinced myself Teeth is Jedward and they're either going to take turns, or next week another set of Teeth will appear."
Fans think Teeth is Jedward
Another fan supported this theory, noting several Eurovision hints in the VT packages, reports the Mirror. Jedward have represented Ireland in the Eurovision Song Contest twice, in 2011 and 2012. A toy coach clue could hint at the pair's stint on Celebrity Coach Trip. Keeping with the Eurovision theme, some fans speculated that Teeth might be Bucks Fizz star Cheryl Baker.
Other names tossed into the mix include Alan Carr, Rob Beckett, Linda Robson and James Buckley. Teeth made their debut on The Masked Singer stage on January 4, belting out Tony Christie's 1972 hit '(Is This The Way To) Amarillo'.
The judges struggled to agree on the character's gender after the performance. However, they did stick to a footballer theme, with Davina McCall guessing Alex Scott, while Mo Gilligan thought Jimmy Bullard was behind the mask.

This year sees a change in the panel, with Love Island's Maya Jama replacing Rita Ora. She joins returning judges Mo Gilligan, Davina McCall, and Jonathan Ross. Guest panellists for the first two episodes were Olympic athlete Mo Farah and actress Vicky McClure, with Suranne Jones the following week.
