THE HAIR

Rebecca Gonsalves: Slicked-back and low-slung, this demure ponytail isn't quite enough to balance out the baring of flesh below the neck.

Hugh Montgomery: Sci-fi slick… in another life, she'd be on 'Battlestar Galatica' rather than 'Strictly'.

THE MAKE-UP

Rebecca: Unfeasibly long eyelash extensos – where there's a WAG, there's a way.

Hugh: Indeed. That these can stay on is totally gravity-defying. And we're totally warming to this space theme.

THE DRESS

Rebecca: She's a walking, talking Brit Award in this Julien Macdonald shock-frock.

Hugh: A Union Jack dress? How insensitive. I mean, does she not know about Geri's recent chart travails? Let her hold on to some kind of legacy, OK?

THE SHOES

Rebecca: All strapped up in skyscraper nude sandals, she best be careful she doesn't do herself a mischief with that frayed hem.

Hugh: We obviously can't see them, but we'll speculate that they're not really the point.
