Strictly Come Dancing returned tonight (October 26) with all the sparkle and even some spookiness as it's Halloween week.
Each of the judges donned Halloween costumes, keeping in with the theme but two really caught viewers' eyes.
Craig Revel Horwood and Anton Du Beke were recognised instantly having dressed as the young twin girls from The Shining.
Fans of the dancing competition found the costume choice "hilarious" and one said they "will never unsee" the two men in the costumes.

Revel Horwood and Du Beke came down the steps at the start of the show, holding hands and donning identical frilly dresses with a big bow on the front, complete with wigs and clips in their hair.
