STRICTLY Come Dancing fans did a double take last night when a Celebrity Gogglebox star was spotted in the audience.
Bez – aka Mark Berry – looked almost unrecognisable when he was seen in a chunky sweater in the front row.

He was cheering on Will Mellor’s performance on the show last night
The musician leapt to his feet after Will Mellor‘s dance with partner Nancy Xu on Strictly and was picked up by cameras.
In fact, some reckoned the 58-year-old star looked like Newsround legend John Craven.
Indeed, Bez looked very different to how we’re used to seeing him, in a Fairisle jumper with grey hair.
He shot to fame as part of the Happy Mondays and Black Grape but has since turned his hand to reality TV.
Bez regularly appears on Gogglebox alongside bandmate Shaun Ryder and was in this year’s Dancing on Ice line-up.
One Strictly viewer last night gasped: “Bez?! I thought it was John Craven!”
Another wrote: “Highlight of the evening? Bez turning up as a John Craven tribute act.”
Some others poked fun at the Happy Mondays star’s top, tweeting: “Has Bez reached the knitwear time of life? Where’s Shaun Ryder – having a Horlicks backstage?”
Another said: “It makes you realise how long ago the 90s were when you see that Bez has grown up to look like John Craven.”
