First, fans picked up on an Irish accent, with @MisConvenience writing: "snail definitely sounded Irish!" @Adamz09 added to this: "Snail is most definitely Irish".
Similarly, many made Bridgerton links early on, before linking everything together. @HeyItzEmme wrote: "Snail is Nicola Coughlan… Bridgerton, Derry Girls and Dr Who related clues!!"
@bridgey_lukola said: "Ok…..so the snail on The Masked Singer UK is obviously Nicola Coughlan she literally sang Espresso! I mean the clues were a dead giveaway but ESPRESSO?!"
Then @LauraMu26036754 added: "Nicola Coughlan is snail on the masked singer!!" @lady_carrie wrote: "I think Snail could be Nicola Coughlan!"
@finchh107 went on to say: "Nicola Caughlan #snail #maskedsinger character got married and had baby boy in bridgerton". They added: "My bad... Had a baby can't remember gender. Nicola was a Derry girl (hat and tie)".
Later, @shipstoohard, wrote: "The snail costume on masked singer UK and how everyone thinks it’s someone from Bridgerton (Nic or Jessie) makes me think of Nicola saying she likes to go into slug mode".
Plenty of other fans shared these views, with @Kate_likes_ simply saying: "I think snail is Nicola Coughlan". @ATuffnell shared similar sentiments: "Snail Nicola Coughlan".
But now loyal telly show regulars reckon Kathryn Drysdale, 43, who found fame in BBC sitcom Two Pints of Lager and a Packet Of Crisps is inside the shell.
One Reddit user mused: "I think snail is Kathryn Drysdale. She’s in Bridgerton. She was in St Trinians and in Bridgerton, her character pretends to be French."
Earlier in the episode, Snail said "I love you," in French. Another fan put: "She sang in an episode of horrible histories too. Might need to compare the voices because that’s a good shout!"
One added: "Royal events clue - I think royal variety..."
