Twitter reacts to the Wight Knight's appearance on ITV's This Morning

The masked superhero, a former security guard from Newport who wishes to remain incognito, made his TV debut today (Tuesday) on ITV's This Morning Programme with Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby.

Twitter speculated to who the hero could be, guessing he could either be Isle of Wight musician Derek Sandy or famed author David Icke who lives in Ryde.

Fun was especially poked at Phillip's facial expressions, the moment Phillip hears the Wight Knight has been called a 'Poundland Power Ranger' is certainly one to watch in the full interview below:

For the last time it's not Alex Watts! 

For the 1000th time - the #WightKnight isn't me. He's on TV, in London, I'm on the Isle of Wight. I interviewed him at the weekend, on stage - and people still think this is me... pic.twitter.com/EaFc12pzzZ

Banter.

Wight Knight is one of these Real Life Superheroes, cleaning up the mean streets of (check notes) the Isle of Wight after he failed the Blue Man Group audition*.

Tracy, we are dying to know.

The Wight knight dripped some heavy clues to who he is on This Morning. I think I know who you are 😉 #WightKnight

I'll admit it, I'm a Wight Knighty.

@Schofe @hollywills @thismorning Nice to see our own Superhero #wightknight on the show. My only concern is that his followers are going to be called  Wight Knighties #Wightnighties

Conspiracy theories were abundant.

I am prepared to believe that balaclava man from #JeremyKyle is also the Wight Knight on #ThisMorning pic.twitter.com/0Q0xTPhtLz

Bless his plastic shielded heart.

Aww bless him. That is sweet. Good on him for providing a good service to anyone that requires it. He is doing it all with a good heart. Continue with your great service #WightKnight @thismorning interview ended nicely

He's not Uber Eats, mate.

If the Wight Knight brings me a KFC he will really be a superhero #ThisMorning

Whoever you are Wight Knight,  godspeed.

Ok, I live on the Isle of Wight but I don’t know who the Wight Knight is so don’t ask me  😁 pic.twitter.com/ciOr5uRxcQ
