Strictly Come dancing viewers were reeling after head judge Shirley Ballas got the name of professional dancer Dianne Buswell wrong for a second week. Fans of the BBC dance contest took to Twitter as they clocked Shirley call Dianne 'Diana' for the second time this series.
Shirley was praising Dianne and her celeb partner, Kiss FM DJ Tyler West, when fans noticed the mix-up. "I think that you give Dianna room to show her fluidity," she told Tyler.
Two weeks ago fans couldn't believe their ears when Shirley previously called Dianne 'Diana' as she critiqued their performance. @louise34hickman tweeted during Saturday night's live show (November 5): "It’s DIANNE!! Not Dianna, Maybe start calling Shirley 'shirlay' and see how she likes it!!" And @RyanGSoapKing11 pointed out: "Shirley it's Diane not Dianna."
