‘Strictly Come Dancing’: Halloween Week Song Choices Revealed

A Tango to 'Paint It Black'? Into it.

This Saturday’s ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ will be spookier than usual, as the celebrities and their partners will embrace a Halloween theme for the week, and their song and dance choices have now been revealed.

While some of the tracks have obvious Halloween links - ‘Bat Out Of Hell’, anyone? - others aren’t quite so clear, but you can expect spectacular, interesting face make-up and themed performances from all of the couples.
