Strictly Come Dancing pro Aljaž Škorjanec suffered a wardrobe blunder during his routine.
The BBC show returned on Saturday night (October 26) with Halloween Week and it saw 11 celebrities battling it out on the dance floor in creepy costumes. However, viewers were left amused when Aljaž Škorjanec’s outfit started falling apart on the dance floor.
The professional dancer and his celebrity partner, Love Island star Tasha Ghoruri, performed a samba to Reel 2 Real’s I Like to Move It, with a Frankenstein theme. Aljaž sported green face paint, a towering quiff, and bolts attached to each side of his neck to resemble the iconic monster.

But, as they danced, one of Aljaž’s bolts fell off, followed by the second one after their performance ended, leaving Strictly fans in stitches. One viewer tweeted on X: “Aljaž losing both his neck bolts from sweating is so funny to me #strictly.”
Another joked: “Aljaz has a bit of a screw loose. Seriously. He’s missing one after his dance. And he’s about to lose another. #SCD #Strictly”, while a third chimed in: “Aljaz has lost a bolt,” followed by a shocked emoji.
Despite the wardrobe malfunction, the pair scored an impressive 37 points, making it the highest-scoring Halloween samba ever and placing them at the top of the leaderboard. Judge Shirley praised their performance, saying they: “combined character and technique, very impressive.”, reports the Mirror.
Last week, JB Gill narrowly avoided being sent home after surviving the dreaded dance-off against former footballer Paul Merson. However, according to the latest odds from the bookies, Dr. Punam Krishan is now the favourite to be eliminated this week with odds of 2/1.
Sam Quek follows closely behind at 7/2, while Pete Wicks is at 5/1. Meanwhile, despite fewer couples remaining in the competition, comedian Chris McCausland and his partner Dianne Buswell are still favourites to win Strictly, with their odds of elimination lengthening from 200/1 to a whopping 250/1.
