Strictly Come Dancing Judges Steal the Show with Incredible Costumes Outshining Contestants

This week’s episode of Strictly Come Dancing offered viewers a memorable Halloween special. The show’s judges captivated the audience with their stunning costumes inspired by the iconic film The Corpse Bride. As the judges made their grand entrance, they danced to “Backstreet’s Back” by the Backstreet Boys, showcasing an amusing blend of zombified moves.

Judges’ Costumes Steal the Show

The reception from the studio audience was overwhelmingly positive. Host Claudia Winkelman expressed her admiration, calling their performance “extraordinary.” Tess Daly praised their enthusiasm, stating, “love the commitment.” However, the judges’ incredible costumes did not only impress those in the studio; viewers across social media platforms shared their thoughts.

  • One user remarked, “The judges’ costumes are incredible.”
  • Another humorously added, “Thanks judges, I didn’t want to sleep tonight anyway.”

Many viewers noted that the judges’ elaborate outfits appeared to overshadow those of the contestants. Comments flooded in, suggesting that “all the make-up went on the judges tonight.” Several others echoed this sentiment, implying that the extravagant costumes distracted from the dancing.

Judges’ Dance Moves Critiqued

While the costumes received much acclaim, the judges’ performance was also a topic of discussion. Viewers playfully critiqued their dancing, humorously noting that they weren’t “doing the dance right.”

In terms of the contestants, Vicky Pattison opened the show impressively with her American Smooth to Bonnie Tyler’s “Total Eclipse of the Heart.” Following her performance, Ellie Goldstein and George Clarke stepped into the spotlight, ready to be evaluated by the judges.

Shirley Ballas, one of the judges, took the opportunity to highlight performance strengths. However, her layered dress made it challenging for her to move freely while offering feedback.
