A much-loved Strictly Come Dancing star made his much-anticipated return to the BBC dance show on Tuesday (Oct 31) as fans made the same demand. Kevin Clifton, 41, appeared on Strictly's spin-off show It Takes Two for its Halloween special as he took to Choreography Corner to give his verdict.
It comes almost four years after the professional dancer quit the main show after competing alongside celebrity contestants for seven years. In March 2020, Kevin announced his departure from the programme as he shared a statement to his Instagram, writing: "The past 7 years have been some of the most wonderful years of my life. I am grateful to the BBC and Strictly Come Dancing for giving me the opportunity to have been a part of something truly special."
But fans were delighted to see the Strictly 'legend' return alongside host Fleur East to dissect the weekend’s Halloween performances. As part of the Halloween special, Kevin was forced to wear a Wednesday Addams costume as voted for by fans of the show.

It turns out viewers were delighted to see the Strictly pro make his return, as they all issued the same demand to make his appearance more frequent. Taking to X, formerly Twitter, @RyanTheSoapking said: "Kevin and Joanne are both brilliant in Choreo Corner. I hope they keep rotating every year."
