Who is Yak? Brandreth and Mortimer Top Market
The clue package for Yak has been one of the most cryptic so far, but it hasn’t stopped the betting community from jumping in.
With a quirky, slightly theatrical performance style and a few comedy hints in the VT, bookies now make Gyles Brandreth the 2/1 favourite to be behind the mask.

Brandreth, a known lover of costumes and eccentric performances, fits the bill perfectly.
However, the unpredictability of The Masked Singer means outsiders like Hamza Yassin, a recent Strictly winner, and comedian Bill Bailey (also a Strictly winner) remain viable options too.
