The incredible guessing game kicked off for another series last night with a new cast of celebs aiming to dazzle the panel with their fancy footwork.
Inititally, viewers insisted Candlestick was ITV star 'Judge' Robert Rinder thanks to a reference to "court".
Oti Mabuse came to the same conclusion - naming the TV favourite as her first guess of the series.
But other viewers reckon Candlestick is Olympic diving champion Tom Daley.
