Mask Singer's Rhino, Jellyfish, Fawn, Phoenix and Jacket Potato all 'unmasked' by experts

Experts claim to have already successfully 'rumbled' the identities of all the acts left in this year's Masked Singer, just days before the semi-final. The hit TV programme returned to ITV last weekend and four million tuned in to watch the guessing game.

Six masked characters have taken to the stage in front of a celebrity panel and studio audience. Betting experts Gambling.com have had their say on who they think will win, with Jellyfish currently out in front, but it's who is hiding behind each mask which is the biggest talking point and they think they've now got them all nailed on.

Ex-Glee star Amber Riley, who won the American version of the competition last year, is the 1/5 favourite to be Jellyfish. Other potentials like Alexandra Burke, and Beverley Knight are in the odds but significantly behind.

When it comes to Rhino, like many viewers, experts are now 100% sure it's Busted star Charlie Simpson, who is at 1/5 and nearest contender James Arthur at 3/1.

Moving onto Fawn and after, a few rather obvious clues like 'black coffee' (an All Saints' single) and Wonderland (the tour the group went on with Take That), Natalie Appleton, a name hasn't even been mentioned by the panel so far, is the overwhelming favourite on 2/1, ahead of Shania Twain and Kimberley Walsh

Phoenix has had viewers flitting between Ricky Wilson and David Tennant from the get-go, but it's Ricky who many people now believe is the celeb in disguise.

Finally, Jacket Potato, who at one point was said to be Shane Richie 'without any doubt,' now looks set to be revealed as Bon Jovi legend Richie Sambora, after the character fulfilled a Masked Singer first last weekend by playing guitar on stage. Richie, who hasn't even been mooted as a potential suspect by the panel, is now 7/2, while Shane's odds have drifted to 3./1.
