Strictly Come Dancing viewers were left in shock during Saturday's live show as two former sitcoms stars reunited on-screen. Celeb contestant Sarah Hadland is famed for her role as Stevie in the BAFTA-nominated sitcom Miranda, and during rehearsals she was joined by the star of the show Miranda Hart. Rolling up to the dance studio with her dog under one arm, the 51-year-old actress and comedian surprised Sarah as she was getting to grips with her latest routine.
Miranda jokingly gave Sarah some pointers, before adding: "It's an amazing experience, I feel lucky, like I have won a prize", as she watched their routine unfold. Sarah, 53, and her dance partner Vito Coppola, 32, performed a Cha-Cha-Cha to Madonna's Like a Prayer for Icons Week on the BBC show on Saturday night. The routine was applauded and the pair were awarded a score of 37 for it.
Sharing their excitement at Miranda's appearance, one Strictly viewer wrote: "Still makes me so happy seeing Miranda and Sarah together again #strictly." A second exclaimed: "If I was on icons week my icon would be Miranda hart #strictly", while a third chimed in: "Why am I a bit emotional seeing Miranda on Sarah & Vito's VT? I just love her and that show to bits." "Miranda and Stevie reunited I’m gonna cry #strictly #StrictlyComeDancing", stated one fan.
"Miranda coming to visit Sarah & Vito in rehearsals I'm crying! It was a pure Miranda and Stevie moment", added another. After all couples danced on Saturday, Tasha and Aljaz topped.
