BBC dance show as they deemed it too soon to hold a special after the launch last week. Strictly, which usually arrives on our screens in September, started later than usual this year because of COVID-19.Another fan suggested: "Am I in a minority of one being gleeful that tonight's Strictly is about the dancing and not about the daft Halloween costumes?

I suspect so."While other viewers thought they saw some Halloween elements creep in anyway, with routines and costumes including Maisie Smith and Gorka Marquez's fierce Tango to Miley Cyrus' Midnight Sky."I know they’re not doing Halloween week technically but this feels like half the cast got the memo it’s halloween and the other half didn’t," said one fan.
