The fifth series of The Masked Singer UK is well underway on ITV1, with fans once again hooked on the hit TV show. Three celebrities have already been unmasked, with Good Morning Britain's Kate Garraway being unveiled as the celebrity behind Spag Bol, Macy Gray being unmasked as Bear, and Prue Leith being behind Pegasus.
As usual, fans have been eagerly trying to piece together the clues and guess which celebrities are behind the remaining characters - Bush, Dressed Crab, Kingfisher, Pufferfish, Snail, Tattoo, Teeth, Toad In The Hole and Wolf. One performer who has caught The Masked Singer fans' attention is Snail, with the identity of the singer being tipped to be a very famous face.
Predictions about Snail's true identity have been circulating
Betway has shared the odds for the top five female celebrities who fans think could be behind the Snail costume on this year's The Masked Singer. Taking the top spot is Emma Bunton, who rose to fame in the Spice Girls.
Baby Spice sits at odds of 3/1, closely followed by TV favourite Emma Willis at 4/1. Meanwhile, Mary Berry is at 5/1, followed by Bridgerton's Nicola Coughlon at 7/1 and West End star Amber Davies at 10/1.
Mike Reading, spokesperson at Betway, said: âThereâs just a day to go until either Wolf, Toad in the Hole, Bear, Bush or Pufferfish face the final curtain call and are unmasked - in an exit thatâs already been teased to be one of the most shocking in the show's history.
âAlready, fans and the panel alike have guessed famous names, from actor David Tennant as Wolf (5/1) to singers Macy Gray as Toad in the Hole (5/1) and Jamie-Lynn Spears as Pufferfish (5/1), and even celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay as Bear (8/1). With the stage set, all eyes will be on which celeb will be revealed in the dramatic unmasking.â

Fans have eagerly been trying to workout the true identity of Pufferfish on The Masked Singer too, and most have settled on Jamie-Lynn Spears being the voice behind the costume. The American star - younger sister of Britney Spears - is famed for starring in Zoey 101 in her younger years, as well as appearing on shows such as Dancing With The Stars and I'm A Celebrity.
Fans on Reddit have pointed out the clues linking Pufferfish to Jamie-Lynn. One said that the spider in the clue package could relate to Jamie's time on I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! last year, while Pufferfish does have an American accent, which could also be a sign.
Another clue was a dice equalling 11, which may refer to Jamie finding fame age 11. The phrase 'Runs in the family' could point towards her famous sister Britney, while another phrase, 'Small but just as impressive', could also relate to her being the younger and shorter sister.
The next episode of The Masked Singer UK will air on Saturday 18 January at 7pm on ITV1
