Strictly Come Dancing fans all had the same complaint just minutes into Saturday’s fourth show, as they branded the opener “pure anarchy”.

As another week of the BBC competition kicked off, die-hard viewers were left perplexed by what was missing from the programme.

‘What is this flat intro?! Where is the opening group number? #Strictly’

“Wait, no opening dance? Just directly??? #strictly’

“The start was strange without Tess and Claudia walking on #Strictly”

“Why do they keep changing the format on #Strictly? From the way they introduce Tess and Claudia, to the music the couples descend to, to the way the judges’ scores are presented. Stop that, it was fine as it was originally!’

“Why are Tess and Claudia here all along?” Why are they no longer presented? Does Alan Dedicoat only turn on at 6:24 p.m.? #Strictly’

” Not yet ! Let Tess and Claudia hang out #Strictly

‘Why the hell did they get rid of Tess and Claudia’s exit at the top?! #Strictly’

“#Strictly, why doesn’t Alan introduce Tess and Claudia, why no hip, are we late?” Doesn’t Alan clock in until 6:25? Is it really live since there is no “live from…”, the strange introductory music for celebrities… it’s not like before and I don’t ‘I don’t want…’

‘Why isn’t the awkward hip bump between Tess and Claudia anymore?! Some random changes this year #Strictly’

From hosts Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman not doing their iconic stair walk, to no group dancing from the pros, fans took to social media to express their confusion over an abrupt departure.
