Strictly Come Dancing viewers make 'fake' live show complaint

Strictly Come Dancing viewers have complained after spotting what they felt were signs that the BBC was 'pretending' the Sunday night result show was live after the first elimination week. Similar complaints about this surfaced in 2021, when fans claimed the result show was actually recorded the day before.

Despite this, the format for this year's show has been kept the same with Claudia Winkleman and all the contestants talking about 'tonight' and 'Sunday's results' despite the show being filmed the night before.

The main reasons for the complaints from fans are that spoilers can leak every week which means viewers already know who will be eliminated before the show airs. This is often before the dance-off is even shown which can ruin the surprise reveal in the Sunday show, reports Yorkshire Live.
