All Strictly Come Dancing viewers equally complain about Shirley Ballas’s ‘Focus Pocus’ Winifred Sanderson’s Halloween costume

Strictly Come Dancing fans all shared the same complaint about Shirley Ballas’ Halloween costume during Spooky Saturday Night.

The 64-year-old chief justice looked unrecognizable as she transformed into the character of “Focus Pocus” Winifred Sanderson.

Shirley looked incredible as she turned heads in a witchy outfit complete with her famous orange wig.

However, viewers were left with one thing to complain about, as Shirley gave a shout-out to the celebrities she kept in character by voicing Winifred.

Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, fans pleaded with the judge to “stop that voice.”

Oh, Shirley, enough of the voice! Shirley likes her character too much; Shirley doesn’t need to be in character to make her point;

“I hope Shirley doesn’t talk like that for the whole show; Anyone want to tell Shirley she doesn’t have to be a hero all night? Also, Shirley is annoying me today, she needs to stop that voice.’

Elsewhere during this week’s show, Strictly fans were left in hysterics after seeing the most “brilliant” costume of the show.

Professional dancer Carlos Gu looked unrecognizable as he impersonated host Claudia Winkleman in a matching outfit.

Carlos stunned, wearing an oversized black blazer and a long lace skirt that matched Claudia perfectly.

He even rocked an eye-catching black wig, copying the presenter’s iconic hairstyle with her fringe.

Fans were quick to pounce on X, saying the pair were “long-lost twins” and that the outfit was “absolutely perfect.”

“Carlos in Claudia’s costume is a GENIUS!” A moment of silence for Carlos in Claudia’s costume. Absolutely PERFECT!; A long-lost twin.”

‘Omg didn’t recognize beautiful Carlos!; Carlos looks incredible; So iconic; THAT’S ALL!!; Lord, I didn’t know you had a sister; find the difference ICONS!!!’

The Halloween special comes after Paul Merson became the fourth celebrity to leave the dance floor last week.

The former footballer, 56, and his professional partner Karen Hauer left the competition after dancing against JB Gill and Amy Dowden during the fourth show of the series’ results.

Both couples performed their routines again – Paul and his partner Karen, 42, performed Samba to Car Wash by Rose Royce.

JB and partner Amy, 34, then performed a jive to Hey Ya! by Outkast.

After both couples danced a second time, the judges gave their verdict: Craig Revel Horwood, Motsi Mabuse and Anton Du Beke decided to save JB and Amy.

With three votes in favor of JB and Amy, they received the majority of votes, meaning that Paul and Karen would leave the competition.
