Amongst the characters was Dressed Crab, who the panel was sure was a famous face from across the pond. But who? That still remains to be decided.

Dressed Crab sung a beautiful rendition of Lean on Me, which certainly had the panel's minds whirring as they tried to guess who could be behind the mask.

Thankfully for this character, they managed to evade the unmasking and will be back in the competition another week! So for now, read on to see if you can guess who is behind the mask!

As guessed by Mo Gilligan, viewers also flocked to social media to share their thoughts behind Dressed Crab being Gregory Porter.

One user wrote: "Such a soulful performance from Dressed Crab - I hear Gregory Porter! He played American football at university. He's 'never out of fashion' - has a song called 'In Fashion'. I'm with Mo - Gregory Porter!"

While another user penned: "Dressed Crab... Gregory Porter because he has the same singing range."
