BBC Strictly Come Dancing fans 'fuming' after Pete Wicks and Jowita Przystal announcement

Fans of Strictly Come Dancing have said they are 'fuming' after an announcement was made about Pete Wicks and Jowita Ptzystal's next performance. The pair were delighted to make it through to another week in the competition after an emotional weekend.

The latest live show on Saturday (November 9) marked a poignant night for reality star and podcast host Pete as week eight of the BBC One dance contest arrived. He used the couple's choice performance with Jowita Przystal to pay tribute to his late beloved nan, Doreen.

Pete and Jowita went on to be praised for their "moving" performance to The Best by Nicotine Dolls, in tribute to Pete's late grandmother with the song being used at her funeral in 2022.

Pete visibly struggled to fight back tears throughout the discussion with the judges and became even more tearful when joined Claudia Winkleman to hear the judges' scores. "It's been a tough week and the one person I want to be here is my nan and she's not," he said.

It was then later confirmed during Sunday night's (November 10) results show that Pete and Jowita had made it through to week nine of the BBC One dance contest, which will see the show relocate to Blackpool for its annual special in the iconic Tower Ballroom.

But as they spoke to Claudia about securing their place in the next week, Pete was left with his head in his hands when Jowita revealed their next dance and the song it will be performed to.

Asked what the couple are dancing to next week, Jowita laughed and said "are you sure", before Pete responded "I don't like the sound of this already." His pro partner revealed: "So we are doing a Cha Cha Cha to I'm too sexy for my shirt." Contestant Chris McCausland was then quick to joke: "Pete, I've never seen you dance but this is your song," to which Pete put his head in his hands.

And it appears Strictly fans aren't impressed. CharlotteG49201 asked: "A cha cha to I'm to sexy. Why?! #Strictly." @notjanpeteh said: "Cha cha cha to i’m too sexy for pete and jowita? oh no #strictly." @abbygsx commented: "No stop why have they stitched up pete and jowita@nancysjowita replied: "I’m fuming." @AChadwick83 added: "A Cha Cha Cha to Right Said Fred?
