The Masked Singer Series 7 Odds: Daley, Shephard And Owen In Conkers Contention
The Masked Singer is down to its final five after Red Panda was unmasked last time out.
Harry Hill, who was 15/8 on betting sites to be the character, was unveiled, much to the judges' surprise, meaning Red Panda has narrowly missed out on a place in Saturday night's semi-final.
Moth, Sloth, Conkers, Can of Worms and Toastie are all through.
Moth's JLS Battle
Ahead of the semis, Moth is just 6/4 on betting apps to win this year's Masked Singer.
One of Moth's latest clues appeared to be Love Actually-related, and that has fuelled further fan theories that the star under the mask is Sugababe Keisha Buchanan.
Sugababes' song Too Lost in You featured in the 2003 romantic-comedy film, and the latest clue has played a part in Keisha moving from 1/3 to 2/7 to be Moth.
Can of Worms isn't too far behind Moth in the outright market, at 13/8, and following the latest episode, fans are completely convinced a JLS member is under the character's mask.
Marvin Humes remains favourite to be Can of Worms, but his price has increased to 10/11, from 8/11.
His JLS bandmate JB Gill appears to be closing in.
Can of Worms sang Gene Wilder's Pure Imagination last Saturday night, and that just happens to be a song JB performed to on Strictly Come Dancing, alongside professional partner Amy Dowden, during 2024's Movie Week.
JB is into 11/10 from 15/8, but third favourite Layton Williams has drifted to 3/1.
The Masked Singer Odds: Who Is Can Of Worms?
Personality | Odds | Probability |
Marvin Humes | 10/11 | 52.4% |
JB Gill | 11/10 | 47.6% |
Layton Williams | 3/1 | 25% |
Ben Shephard | 5/1 | 16.7% |
Kaleb Cooper | 8/1 | 11.1% |
Toastie looks set to push Moth and Can of Worms all the way for Masked Singer victory.
Some branded her vocal the best of the night, and show judge Maya Jama praised her "powerful" voice, after the character belted out Ike and Tina Turner's River Deep, Mountain High on Saturday night.
Brenda Edwards has shortened to be Toastie, after she happened to perform the same song when she auditioned for the second series of The X Factor in 2005.
The Masked Singer Odds: Who Is Toastie?
Personality | Odds | Probability |
Brenda Edwards | 4/6 | 60% |
Mica Paris | 6/4 | 40% |
Sophie Aldred | 3/1 | 25% |
Judi Love | 5/1 | 16.7% |
Alison Hammond | 8/1 | 11.1% |
The Loose Women panellist had leapfrogged Mica Paris to be the 10/11 frontrunner last week, but she is now as short as 4/6 to be the character.
As a result, former EastEnders actress Mica has drifted to 6/4.
Toastie is 15/8 third favourite to win this year's Masked Singer, just in front of 2/1 chance Conkers.
The Masked Singer Series 7 Winner Odds:
Personality | Odds | Probability |
Moth | 6/4 | 40% |
Can Of Worms | 13/8 | 38.1% |
Toastie | 15/8 | 34.8% |
Conkers | 2/1 | 33.3% |
Sloth | 3/1 | 25% |
New Triple Threat In Conkers Market
The Conkers market still appears to be wide open, with social media sleuths undecided on which celebrity is under the mask.
Richard Fleeshman was 11/8 favourite last week, but the former Coronation Street star has been replaced as frontrunner by retired Olympian Tom Daley, who is judge Davina McCall's guess.
Tom is a market newcomer at 13/8, just in front of fellow newbie Ben Shephard (7/4), who some fans had linked to Can of Worms.
The Masked Singer Odds: Who Is Conkers?
Personality | Odds | Probability |
Tom Daley | 13/8 | 38.1% |
Ben Shephard | 7/4 | 36.4% |
Mark Owen | 2/1 | 33.3% |
Richard Fleeshman | 5/2 | 28.6% |
Sam Aston | 3/1 | 25% |
As well as diver Daley and This Morning host Shephard, Take That singer Mark Owen (2/1) is also a newcomer in contention to be Conkers.
Some pointed out that the singer could even be putting on a voice to disguise himself from being the character.
Following the new theories, former Corrie star Richard Fleeshman and current cobbles legend Sam Aston have drifted to 5/2 and 3/1 respectively to be the character.
The Masked Singer Odds: Who Is Moth?
Personality | Odds | Probability |
Keisha Buchanan | 2/7 | 77.8% |
Amber Davies | 6/4 | 40% |
Jamelia | 2/1 | 33.3% |
Nicola Roberts | 3/1 | 25% |
Jessie J | 6/1 | 14.3% |
Outsider Sloth
While Moth is favourite to triumph in this year's series, Sloth is propping up the market at 3/1 and looks most likely to go home next.
Jamie Oliver remains favourite to be the character, and in typical Sloth style, the celebrity chef has slowly crept into 8/11, from 4/5 frontrunner.
But Gavin & Stacey star James Corden has emerged as a shock new contender, at 6/5, as has Mark 'The Beast' Labbett.
The Masked Singer Odds: Who Is Sloth?
Personality | Odds | Probability |
Jamie Oliver | 8/11 | 57.9% |
James Corden | 6/5 | 45.5% |
Mark 'The Beast' Labbett | 7/4 | 36.4% |
Sam Thompson | 2/1 | 33.3% |
Joe Wicks | 3/1 | 25% |
Last Saturday's guest judge, Olly Murs, predicted The Chase quizzer might be under the mask, and he is now the 7/4 third favourite to be Sloth.
Former I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! winner Sam Thompson is also still in contention at 2/1, and the nation's PE teacher Joe Wicks is a 3/1 chance.
