Masked Singer's Knitting gives Davina McCall 'lightbulb' moment to confirm fan predictions

Davina McCall had a real 'lightbulb' moment on Saturday's Masked Singer as she remembered a clue from a few weeks ago to arrive at the same conclusion fans made weeks ago - that Knitting is Claire Richards.

It was back in the first episode of the new series that Knitting made her debut and it took her first VT and a verse and chorus of Becky Hill's Remember for Steps fans to be sure it is Claire in the pink and purple costume. As well her as having a distinctive singing voice, Claire's early clues included a magpie, which many people took to be a nod to Steps hit One For Sorrow and 2002, the year Claire formed duo H & Claire with her bandmate.

There was mention of the number 26, which is the sum of 5,6,7,8 and another video of Knitting asking someone to put the light on, a clear reference to Steps' single Scared of the Dark and Knitting singing No More Tears (Enough is Enough), a song she also sang on a Steps tour.
