You've heard of the Masked Singer and the Masked Dancer... now meet the Masked Comedian.
Here's stand-up 'Bobby Goldfinn' - billed the only goldfish on the UK comedy scene – on Britain's Got Talent last night.
But he failed to impress the judges because he kept forgetting the punchline - not surprise given he has the memory of a goldfish.
Simon Cowell said: 'Well, the good thing is you're going to forget this ever happened...'
The Sun reported that the man behind the mask is Bobby Finn, from Massachusetts.
Who is 'Bobby Goldfinn' on BGT?
