MASKED Dancer fans are going for gold when it comes to Candlestick's identity.
As speculation around the waxy character continues to mount, some viewers are predicting it's none other than British Olympic hero Sir Mo Farah.
Visually, Candlestick gives little away, with a single flame atop a melted candle that leads to an androgynous brown and gold body.
Despite the limited outfit, viewers appear to have seen enough to suggest the person under the mask is Mo.
One simply posted on Twitter: "Sir Mo Farah #candlestick.
Another guessed: "#MaskedDancer only just catching up but candlestick maybe Mo Farah."
