Strictly Come Dancing fans asked "what on earth" as they were distracted by "dubious" song choices.
Viewers took umbrage with the theme for James Bye and Fleur East's dances given it was Halloween week. Dressed as a beekeeper, EastEnders star James performed a Charleston to Bumble Bee by LaVern Baker. Professional partner Amy Dowden, dressed as a bee, celebrated after the dance saying: "I'm buzzing. Up until dress run, one of those lifts actually didn't happen. He did such a good job."
Judge Motsi Mabuse said: "What's great - your personality shines through. This week you showed us another side. You risked more. This is another week and another improvement." After head judge Shirley Ballas got up to show the actor how to add more energy into his performance, James said: "There's a place for you on EastEnders."
