Fans think Pearly King could well be former Strictly judge Bruno Tonioli, with one person writing: “Pearly King:” and then sharing a snap of Bruno.

Another penned: “The initials in the graffiti behind Pearly King are all artists that Bruno Tonioli has choreographed – DD ­= Duran Duran, FM = Freddie Mercury, BG = Boy George, RS = Rolling Stones. Binoculars = opera glasses – Bruno loves opera.”

Another penned: “Pearly King is Bruno.”

Bruno, 66, was part of Strictly for 18 years but quit the hit show earlier this year.

Tonight, a big clue was given as Pearly King revealed their actual voice which threw fans off, and Bruno wasn’t the only guess.

The likes of Danny Dyer and Queen's Brian May have been linked to the sharp-suited lion and last week another entered the mix: Jake Wood.
