A third remarked: "Brilliant Craig!"

"Fab - u - lous," another wrote.

However some were very confused as he appeared just a minute later out of drag with the rest of the judges.

Often, group numbers are pre-recorded, meaning that Craig would have had some time to get changed in between.

One perplexed viewer tweeted: "Is this live? No way could Craig have gotten changed that fast."

Another quipped: "Craig got changed quickly #Strictly."

*Strictly Come Dancing returns tomorrow at 7.20pm on BBC One
