Strictly viewers complain minutes into the Halloween special that the hosts are not in costume like the judges
Josh Widdicombe drew viewer fire within minutes of Strictly Come Dancing's Halloween special on Saturday after opting for a plain dark green suit while all four judges went full fancy dress. Craig Revel Horwood came as the devil, Motsi Mabuse as a fairy queen, Shirley Ballas as the ice queen and Anton Du Beke as an angel, making the host's low-effort look all the more stark.
'Did Josh not get the Halloween memo?' viewers posted on X, with others writing 'zero effort' and 'it's Halloween, not a christening.'
EastEnders star Lacey Turner, 38, topped the leaderboard with 36 points for her Charleston with Vito Coppola, hailed 'best dance of the night' by Motsi.
Three couples face a historic first triple dance-off in Sunday's results show, with Motsi casting the deciding vote on who leaves.
