And a third said: ‘Well I got a bit emotional seeing Nicky Campbell dressed as a Dippy egg, singing Moon River isn’t how I expected it to go tonight… but here we are’ .
Someone else wrote: ‘I thought Nicky Campbell was absolutely fantastic.’
After the show, Nicky described his time as Dippy Egg as ‘incredible’ before discussing Davina’s reaction.
He said, ‘Oh, she was emotional. I was emotional when I did the song again. It was unbelievable’.
“I was emotional the whole time, just seeing her through the mask. At every performance I could more or less make her out, and I thought, ‘It’s so close and yet so far!’.
Melody, who also won the Australian version of the show in 2022, said she returned to the series because it was “completely positive”.
She said: ‘You can actually just have fun, and it was great to bring this character to life!’.
Melody also revealed that she had written a ‘whole biography’ for Maypole in an attempt to stay in character throughout her time on stage.
‘She’s not far from a female Pinocchio. So there’s a part of her that wants to be loved and she’s covered in all these colors. I just wanted to see her go far.”

Last week Owl was revealed as none other than ITV icon Lorraine Kelly, 64, and the moment left viewers and judges stunned as the broadcaster removed her huge mask to wild applause from the studio audience.
The panel was joined by Ellie Goulding, but no one guessed that it was in fact Lorraine strutting her stuff on stage.
While host Joel Dommet exclaimed: ‘This might be one of the best reveals we’ve ever had on the show!’.
Unable to wipe the big smile off her face, Lorraine said: “I loved being Owl, I loved every second of it, the show is so joyful.”
