Fans react as Strictly Come Dancing judges embrace Halloween with villain-themed costumes

Descending the steps, fans spotted reality star Pete Wicks dressed as The Joker, accompanied by his professional partner Jowita Przysta as Harley Quinn. Jamie Borthwick and Michelle Tsiakkas transformed into Wednesday and Pugsley Addams, while JB Gill, who was in the hot seat last Sunday, sported a spooky scarecrow costume alongside Amy Dowden.

Embracing the eerie atmosphere, the judges swapped their usual glamorous outfits for an array of fancy dress costumes. BBC viewers were treated to Craig Revel Horwood and Anton Du Beke as the twins from the Shining, Motsi Mabuse as Cruella de Vill, and Shirley Ballas as Winifred Sanderson.

It wasn't long before viewers took to Twitter to share their thoughts on the fancy dress costumes, with many particularly impressed by Anton and Craig, reports the Mirror.
