Illusionist Darcy Oake has made it through to the final of Britains Got Talent: The Champions following his return to the BGT stage with a mind-melting illusion over the weekend.
The Canadian-born magician – who will be talking about his return to the show on This Morning on Tuesday – won the superfans vote on Saturday nights show after a stunt which saw him being handcuffed and locked in a box suspended 20 feet in the air, with just 56 seconds to free himself before it exploded.
He left both judges and audience gasping when he subsequently appeared standing on a platform behind the judges – prompting plenty of theories about how he might have pulled off the elaborate stunt.
And one of those theories suggested that he might just have a twin hidden away somewhere – but does he?

Heres what you need to know…
Does Darcy Oake have a twin?
The suggestion that Darcy might have a twin came from people wondering how on earth he pulled off that stunt on Saturdays BGT: The Champions, and thinking that perhaps a secret sibling took his place when he appeared behind the judges.
He had an identical twin! one viewer suggested as debate raged over how he did it.
The one that came on at the end had a freckle on his neck. I rewound and the first one didnt.
So does Darcy have a twin? Well as far as were aware, he doesnt.
He did however have a brother, Bruce, who sadly died in 2011 following a drug overdose.
Darcy previously said on reaching the final in 2014 that if he won the series £100,000 prize money, he would use the money to help his family in the wake of his siblings death.
None of the finalists are focusing on the prize money, he said at the time. But if I did win, it would be important to help my family.
Darcy, who is from Winnipeg, is the son of Scott Oake, a sports presenter and commentator on Canadian TV who is best known for his hockey coverage as well as covering events including the Olympics.
Is Darcy Oake married?
Darcys marital status is unknown but he revealed on Britains Got Talent in 2014 that he has a long-term girlfriend.
In fact his first ever illusion on Britains Got Talent featured his girlfriend, who appeared from a shower of birds in a cage.
