My only memory of precious Strictly Halloween shows is Nancy Dell Olio getting out of a coffin on the show for a dreadfully wooden dance. Truly awful - she was eliminated that week.

A few dance steps wouldn't go amiss.

I bloody love the next song! reminds me of my ex.. and not in a nice way..

Am I the only one immune to Nikita's charms? I like him as a pro though.

Nikita does seem to be having more fun this year.

Love this song

Didn't Scott mills do under the sea on lobster week? Rose and Gio did a tango I think it was to Shivers by Ed Sheeran that was good

I enjoy Nikita as Robert Smith The Vampire.

Yes, I'm not quite sure what's happened to Nikita this year. <fans self>

Lobster week Halloween week. Maybe they should have a lobster week

FFS this is awful music for a tango.

This is a bit slow, isn't it?

Leighton can’t lead, the second he changes frame his arms go rigid.

Good god the singing, sorry to that woman but

That was odd for me. Was it the song?

The judges were being diplomatic. I can't see Zara having any major progress. She's got the flexibility and strength, but there's no energy uniting it all.

Adam was much better this week.
I liked Angela's start to the night too.

Oh my!

So that wasn't very good to watch. I think I only like tango with traditional music.

The only bit I liked was the backflip

If they want a same-sex couple, why is one dressed as a woman? They could have done the whole Tom Cruise/Brad Pitt thing.

That was a cool ending tbf

Layton's somersault was amazing

I thought she sang it brilliantly. Loved it!

Poor Layton, he's always a sweaty Betty!

I didn't like the music.
