Strictly fans blast 'unforgivable' Lion King outfits for Richie and Giovanni

Strictly Come Dancing fans blasted Richie Anderson and Giovanni Pernice's "unforgivable" Lion King outfits.

The pair dressed up as Timon and Pumbaa for their Samba to Hakuna Matata, and frustrated fans took to Twitter to joke about the pair's outfits. The duo were dressed up as a meerkat and warthog, with Giovanni given a larger belly as part of the costume.

As she gave her verdict, Shirley admitted she didn't think she'd look at Giovanni in the same way after his outfit choice, but praised the dance as one of their "best numbers" so far, whilst Anton called it "wonderful".
