Strictly Come Dancing fans were stunned by Fleur East's new look as she hosted spin-off show It Takes Two on Friday night. The presenter, who came in second place on the hit BBC show in 2022 with Vito Coppola, was discussing the contestants' routines before this weekend's Halloween special with celebrity panellists Jordan North, Simon Rimmer and Dilly Carter.

Embracing the Halloween theme, Fleur underwent a major transformation as she wore a black and brown curly wigs with a gothic black leather midi dress featuring feathered shoulders. Viewers at home were distracted from the show as they took to X, formerly Twitter, to comment on her outfit.

One fan wrote: "WOW! Fleur looks amazing #ItTakesTwo." Another said "Fleur looks stunning tonight."

In other parts of Friday's programme, the panel didn't shy away from making bold predictions about who might be next to exit Strictly Come Dancing. Simon placed his bets on Dr Punam Krishan and Gorka Marquez to depart, while Jordan pegged JB Gill and Amy Dowdan as likely to be voted off.

Meanwhile, Dilly predicted that Shayne Ward and Nancy Xu might be the next to leave. Fleur also asked the team if they thought Chris McCausland was at risk as he was dancing the dreaded Samba.

Fleur reveled the dance had already sent Toyal and Paul home - but the panellists are convinced Chris can pull it off with a little help from celeb dance partner Dianne Buswell.

In last week's episode, football legend Paul Merson and his dance partner Karen Hauer were voted off following their Samba to Rose Royce's 'Car Wash', which only managed to secure 19 points from the judges. They were booted off the show after a tense dance-off against JB Gill.
