Halloween Theme Takes Center Stage in Strictly Come Dancing
The popular dance competition show, Strictly Come Dancing, is gearing up for its annual Halloween-themed week. This special edition of the show will feature a fright night filled with spooky routines and thrilling performances from both professional dancers and celebrity participants.
A Special Halloween Routine Awaits
Strictly’s professional dancers are set to perform a unique Halloween routine this weekend, complete with songs by Charli XCX, Lady Gaga, and Benson Boone. The theme of the week also includes other popular themed weeks such as Movies, Blackpool, Musicals, and Icons. This year marks a significant milestone for Strictly Come Dancing, as it approaches its sixth week of competition.
Celebrity Traitors Star Joins the Halloween Show
In addition to the professional dancers’ routine, viewers will also witness a special performance from Celebrity Traitors star Cat Burns during Sunday night’s results show. This adds an extra layer of excitement and unpredictability to the already thrilling competition.
Speculation Continues Over New Hosts
The show’s regular presenters, Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman, have announced that they will be leaving at the end of the current series. As a result, there is ongoing speculation about who might replace them as the new hosts of Strictly Come Dancing.
Viewers and fans are actively suggesting names such as Alesha Dixon, Zoe Ball, and Alison Hammond for potential new hosts. The last broadcast featuring Daly and Winkleman saw them nodding to their upcoming departure, expressing gratitude for the audience’s support with heartfelt messages.
The Competition Continues
While Halloween Week brings a festive atmosphere, it also intensifies the competition among the dancers. Last week, Emmerdale star Lewis Cope and his dance partner Katya Jones topped the leaderboard with 34 points following their impressive Johnny Cash Quickstep performance.
Other notable performances included Ellie Goldstein and her partner Vito Coppola who delivered a dynamic Salsa to a Spice Girls medley. Despite some humorous moments, George Clarke’s Jive to Harry Styles’ “As It Was” was met with criticism from the judges, resulting in the lowest score for that evening.
The final performance of this week is set to determine which couple will be eliminated during Sunday night’s results show. With only five weeks left until the grand finale on 20 December, the competition remains intense and closely watched by millions of viewers across the UK.
