Former Love Island star Tasha Ghouri and Aljaž Škorjanec took to the dancefloor once again on Strictly Come Dancing.

The week before the infamous Blackpool Tower Ballroom episode, the pair performed the Quickstep.

All the judges apart from Craig Revel Horwood seemed to have rave reviews for the first dance of the night.

Both Motsi Mabuse and head judge Shirley Ballas gave the highest score of ten points as she received an overall score of 37.

However, it seems viewers were in complete disagreement as they took to X, formerly known as Twitter, in their droves.

One fan said: "Tasha & Aljaz didn’t deserve 10s I’m sorry.

A second raged: "I liked Tasha's dance but I don't think it was 10 worthy.

"Tasha and Aljaz was Overmarked. I agreed with Craig on this one.", commented a third.

While a fourth noted: "As usual Tasha was good, yawn. Sorry I just find her really dull to watch, there’s been zero journey and I feel like the judges are favouring her massively."

And a fifth added: "Shirley going in on that when Tasha was bland as anything and she gave a 10. F****** get this woman off that judging panel already. CHRIST."

Fans of the BBC One show were also disappointed in the band who they claimed butchered Mariah Carey's smash-hit song, Sweet Fantasy.

Another said: "Aljaz and Tasha are amazing but the song ruined the whole thing for me.";

While someone else wrote: "The poor strictly vocalist being expected to go from Mariah to Cyndi Lauper to The Beatles to whatever else the cruel BBC decide to throw at her."

"They’re ruining my favourite Mariah Carey song. The arrangement is awful," commented a further user.
