Strictly Come Dancing fans distracted by ‘wardrobe mistake’ | TV and Radio | Showbiz and TV

Strictly Come Dancing fans were distracted on Saturday night when an apparent ‘wardrobe error’ caught their attention. In the most recent episode, viewers witnessed Pete Wicks enter the stage wearing a gray shirt paired with black pants and his mane neatly slicked back.

However, within moments, Shayne Ward appeared on stage dressed in an eerily similar set of gray shirt and black pants, sporting an identical hairstyle to Pete’s, causing an uproar among the audience.

Perplexed fans rushed to Twitter to express their confusion, with one viewer commenting: “Why is Shayne dressed as Pete? Another chimed in with similar curiosity: “Shayne and Pete look alike this week #Strictly!”, while others couldn’t help but joke about the doppelganger moment: “me and my friend when we copied each other’s homework: #strictly.”

One fan humorously observed the transformation taking place on their screens, joking: “Shayne there, looks like he’s turning into Pete Wicks!

The upcoming Saturday night promises to offer more refined performances, with Shayne teaming up with professional dancer Nancy Xu for an American Smooth routine to Sam Smith’s evocative ‘Get Here’. Meanwhile, Pete’s Rumba with dance partner Jowita Przysta, to the Oasis classic ‘Don’t Look Back In Anger’, is sure to be another highlight, reports the Mirror.

The latest developments follow hot on the heels of DIY SOS star Nick Knowles bowing out as the third celebrity to exit Strictly following an intense dance-off against former Coronation Street star Shayne the previous weekend. Remarkably, Nick had just marked his return to the dance floor after being out for a week due to a knee injury.

Nick, 62, and his professional dance partner Luba Mushtuk scored a modest 21 out of 40 points from the judges for their Charleston song “Rain On The Roof” from the film “Paddington 2”, placing just above the bottom of the leaderboard. last weekend.

Reflecting on his journey with presenter Tess Daly, Nick shared: “I was really, really surprised by how much I loved doing it and two things that happened.”

He continued, revealing the emotional stakes involved: “One is how much you care each week, and the other is how much you don’t want to disappoint your partner. The only reason I could do this is simply because of Luba’s changes, she has been amazing. There are some amazing dancers there, and I’m going to love watching the rest of the series.

Luba, visibly moved, replied: “I have never met someone as determined as you and I remember you saying that if you do your best you will be very happy. I think you did more than your best. Thanks”.

Before Nick’s exit, Toyah Willcox was the previous contestant to leave the competition, with Tom Dean being the first celebrity to leave the show.
