Strictly: Bruno wears TINY shorts for group dance
Strictly Come Dancing kicked off this evening with a big opening number.
They danced to a Mamma Mia medley, and it included the show’s pro dancers and its judges.
Viewers were surprised to see the judges take to the dance floor, but they were even more spurred when they all made a rapid costume change.
The viewers then took to Twitter to reveal their bemusement about the quick change.
One viewer said: “The judges changed very quickly.”
Another added: “Didn’t take the judges long to change!”
“Boooooo to the judges,” said another viewer.
A viewer commented: “What an odd opener to Strictly. The judges should just sit behind the table, shouldn't they?”
That said, many viewers were impressed by the judges’ involvement in the opening routine.
One viewer tweeted: “Love seeing the judges getting involved with the opening dance but not sure about Bruno’s shorts.”
Another added: “Having the full #Strictly cast, judges n' all, dancing in this opening number, is quite something! Why am I teary about that?”
“Love that the Judges got involved and Anton was the lead!” one viewer added.
A fourth remarked: “JUDGES IN THE GROUP DANCE SHOCKER. I can’t contain my joy! #strictly.”
Meanwhile, some viewers were somewhat surprised by Bruno Tonioli’s very short shorts.
One viewer wrote on Twitter: “Bruno's shorts situation is surely a breach of the watershed? #strictly #scd.”

A third added: “#Strictly glad Bruno sitting behind a desk rest of the night in those shorts #budgies.”
Each contestant will be doing their utmost in quarter-finals week to make it to the semi-finals next week.
That said, musicals week might prove to be a very challenging one for the dancers.
