BBC Strictly Come Dancing viewers were speechless as they noticed a Hollywood couple were sat in the audience during the latest live show.
As the professional dancers performed their opening routine for Movie Week, presenters Claudia Winkleman and Tess Daly were introducing into the ballroom, but attention was quickly drawn elsewhere.
Actor Tom Hiddleston and his partner Zawe Ashton, who is also an actor, were seen clapping in the audience as they appeared to be having a great time watching the show.

Meanwhile, fans were left devastated as Nigel Harman and Katya Jones were forced to drop out of the competition after he sustained an injury during rehearsal.
They appeared on the show to explain their abrupt exit, as Nigel revealed he had a rib injury after leaping off equipment for their routine.
He said: “I was leaping off a rostrum, and was about to be caught by some very handsome men, and as I flew I was Peter Pan – but as I landed, I was in A&E.”

Bobby Brazier and Dianne Buswell, Ellie Leach and Vito Coppola, Annabel Croft and Johannes Radebe and Layton Williams and Nikita Guzman all remain on the show.
