STRICTLY Come Dancing fans have been left irked by a huge wardrobe mishap on the BBC One show.
It came during former Coronation Street star Shayne Ward‘s Quickstep with professional partner Nancy Xu, 33, during the show’s first-ever Icons Week.

Apple CorpsThey couldn’t understand why the routine was set to Beatles track Help! but they were wearing the Fab Four’s outfits from the Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band album[/caption]
The duo – who found themselves in the Strictly Come Dancing Dance Off last week – scooped an impressive 35 score from the judges for the routine set to The Beatles track, Help!
Yet loyal fans of the fab four band took to Reddit in their droves to flag the “weird” costumes and “wrong colours.”
They took issue with the fact the pair were dressed in similar get-up to that worn by John Lennon, Paul McCartney, Ringo Star and George Harrison on the front of the Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band album.
In fact, the track Help! was featured on the album of the same name – not the Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band release – which was the band’s eighth studio album, hitting shelves in 1967.
Meanwhile, Help! came two years earlier, and marked the Liverpudlian legend’s fifth release.
After spotting the historical blunder, fans were left concerned why the duo had worn the outfits in the first place.
One Strictly fan posted on Reddit: “Me suppressing the urge to complain about having Sgt Pepper’s costumes for a performance of Help!”
Another put: “It’s not as if the Beatles didn’t have any other iconic looks! Really weird choice.”
A third then wrote: “I was more annoyed they got managed to get the colours wrong! Shayne as John should have been in yellow and Nancy as Paul in blue.”
Another then mused: “I just complained about this to my husband!!!
“I said, ‘They’re dressed like Sgt. Pepper’s and didn’t do Sgt. Pepper’s!! Rude!'”
One then added: “I said this! Sgt Pepper/Yellow Submarine film outfits and neither song they danced to was on that album/soundtrack.
“Sgt Pepper is one of my all time favourite albums as well.”
Their anger notched up a gear when Shayne ripped off his jacket to reveal the exact same outfit underneath.

HE was the infamous cult leader whose followers – dubbed The Family – killed nine people including the pregnant Hollywood actress Sharon Tate.
Now a contentious legal battle to claim the estimated $1million fortune of mass murderer Charles Manson has reached boiling point – with three contenders battling for a slice of the blood-tainted pie.
AP:Associated PressCharles Manson and his cult were responsible for at least nine murders[/caption]

APMichael Channels claims to have a will that names him as Manson’s sole inheritor[/caption]
The claimants include Manson’s grandson, ex-MMA fighter Jason Freeman, 48, and alleged ‘love child’ Daniel Arguelles, 64 – as well as former pal Michael Channels, who has a will that appears to leave everything to him.
The bitter seven-year legal battle – which has raised since the kille’s death in 2017 – is set for an ultimate showdown in February next year.
But now estate agent Arguelles, who believes he was conceived on a one night stand, has been granted a mini-trial to prove his claim, after previously being denied access to teeth, skin, hair and ash from Manson for DNA tests.
Whoever wins will inherit memorabilia that could fetch thousands as well as the rights to his likeness, artwork, journals and most importantly music royalties, including for songs by Guns N’ Roses, The Beach Boys and Marilyn Manson.
Some have backed the claim of Channels, 57, a memorabilia collector, who has a signed will from Manson that allegedly ‘disinherits’ all of his relatives – which could prove blood isn’t thicker than ink.
However, Freeman’s lawyers have alleged it’s a fake and Arguelles’ representatives suggest the document was signed under “duress”.
Manson’s friend William Harder, 47, is among the few people to have cast eyes over the will that Channels’ has and in an exclusive interview tells us it looks “legitimate”.
He also reveals he was asked to keep the document secret for years before Manson’s death, as well as detailing an alleged fallout and his thoughts on the ‘children’… including those who suddenly “came out the woodwork”.
William, who runs memorabilia site MurderAuction.com, tells us: “I have seen the will that Michael Channels has and it looked legitimate to me… there was no question in my mind that it was authentic.
“I’m not a legal expert but I’d believe this man would be above Jason Freeman, the grandson of Manson. Michael has a sturdy claim but a will can be challenged.
“The document appeared to be very real and I think that would supersede the family’s claim because it is a legal document – but I’m not an inheritance expert.
“I saw the will in 2011 when I went to buy a few items from Channels. I was going through a few things when I stumbled upon the will in an envelope.
“Channels was like, ‘Hang on, hang on,’ but I’d already opened it. I said ‘Is this legit?’ He said, ‘Yeah man’ I said, ‘Goodness’. He asked me not to say anything about it and I didn’t.
“I understood why he wanted to keep it quiet… I think if someone found out, say Freeman, someone could tell Charlie (Manson) to rework it.
Manson’s pal William Harder talks to The Sun about the contentious willSuppliedAlamyJason Freeman claims to be the grandson of the late cult leader Charles Manson[/caption]
WikipediaThe cult leader (left) with Freeman’s grandmother Rosalie Jean Willis on their wedding day[/caption]
“He could say to Charlie, ‘Do you want him to have access to all of this?’ and they would have tried to get Charlie to sign a different document.”
‘Persistent fighting’
William says he’s not surprised the battle has continued for so long and notes there will be “persistent fighting, wherever there is money but it’s certainly worth the effort”.
There’s up to a $1million prize for one of the trio – and each has their own unique and individual reasoning behind why it’s owed to them.
Freeman claims to be the grandson of Manson. His father Charles Manson Jr, who died from a self-inflicted gun wound in 1993, would have been the cult leader’s eldest son.
Manson Jr was born in 1956 to hospital waitress Rosalie Jean Willis, who was married to the killer for three years until 1958 and listed him as father on the child’s birth certificate.
Freeman’s dad changed his name to Jay White to distance himself from the killer and his suicide was thought to have been linked to Manson’s crimes.
“He just couldn’t let it go. He couldn’t live it down. He couldn’t live down who his father was,” Freeman said.
I think he visited Charles five times or something but then was taken off his list for whatever reason… after that they were loosely in touch but to my knowledge he never visited Manson again
William Harder
Arguelles, a realtor, who was born in 1959, claims he was the product of “a one-night encounter” between Manson and his mother.
But Freeman argues that the fact Manson wasn’t listed on the supposed love child’s birth certificate is proof he is not his son.
The warring pair are united in the belief that Channels’ will is not legitimate – but for different reasons.
Reflecting on the case, William says: “The people fighting over Charles’s estate, none of them are exceptionally wealthy, or well to do, so the prospect of getting that money is appealing.

“If your father was a millionaire and you found out he left it in his will to a caregiver you are going to think, ‘Hang on a second, that’s my biological father or grandfather.’”
Will ‘forgery’ & ‘fallout’
William looked at the contested will in 2011 and doesn’t believe the document is a forgery, as has been alleged by the lawyers opposing the claim.
He tells us: “The envelope it came in was an envelope from Corcoran Prison – the return address, the stamp and stuff all looked very legitimate.
“It looked just like every other thing you would get from the prison at that time. The will was notarised and signed by a witness, Manson and the notary.
“It definitely looked the part and when I saw it, I immediately knew what it was. Back then, I’d heard a rumour that there was a will and couldn’t believe it when I saw it.”
Arguelles’s lawyers have claimed Channels used “duress, menace, fraud or undue influence” to get Manson to sign the will and cite the killer’s mental issues, including schizophrenia, which made him more vulnerable.
Lots of people claim to be Charles Manson’s kids but it’s make believe… and to get attention… but when it comes down to proving it they know they can’t
William Harder
William, who is not involved in the case, told The Sun that the will was kept secret for years and hints at potential problems between Manson and Channels.
He tells us Channels visited the cult leader around five times – compared to William who saw Manson up to 35 times in a year.
When asked if Manson spoke about Channels, William says: “He did a little bit. He didn’t suggest that they were overly close or anything, but they were obviously close-ish. He had stopped visiting when I started.
“I think he visited Charles five times or something but then was taken off his list for whatever reason… after that they were loosely in touch but to my knowledge he never visited Manson again.”
The crimes of Charles Manson and 'the family'
The most infamous of these were the Tate-LaBianca murders in August 1969.
On August 8, 1969, the feared cult leader ordered four of his blood-thirsty disciples – Susan Atkins, Linda Kasabian, Patricia Krenwinkel and Charles “Tex” Watson – to the Beverly Hills address of movie actress Sharon Tate with the instruction to kill everyone in the house.
Manson told them to “totally destroy everyone in it, as gruesome as you can.”
As well as Tate, who was married to director Roman Polanski, they murdered four other people at the property that fateful night.
The actress was also eight-and-a-half months pregnant.
On the night she was killed she had three friends over for a dinner party: hairstylist Jay Sebring, Polanski’s friend Wojciech Frykowski and his partner, the coffee heiress Abigail Folger.
Music producer Quincy Jones was also meant to be there but he had forgotten about the invite.
The cult leader wanted the people in the house dead because he had been rejected by music producer Terry Melcher who had lived in the house but since left the property.
When the murderous cult arrived at the house, caretaker Steven Parent was spotted and shot to death.
After they got inside the house, the cult members attacked the dinner party guests while they were sleeping, stabbing them repeatedly.
Watson claimed that Sharon begged him to let her live long enough to have her son but the savage cult members knifed her 16 times.
He said her final words were: “Mother, mother” and they carved a cross into her stomach.
Less than 24 hours later, the deadly gang – plus Leslie Van Houten and Steve “Clem” Grogan – savagely tortured, murdered and mutilated wealthy LA couple Rosemary and Leno LaBianca.
They used their blood to write “Rise,” “Death to Pigs,” and “Healter Skelter,” a misplaced reference to the Beatles song “Helter Skelter,” on the walls and refrigerator door.
Manson and his accomplices were all sent down for the murders, apart from Kasabian who testified against them and played no direct part in the killings.
Manson was originally sentenced to death but he was spared execution and his sentence was converted to life in prison after the California Supreme Court declared the death penalty unconstitutional in that state.
‘Missing heir’
William says there is another player who could make a stake for the fortune – Michael Brunner, who’s allegedly the child of Charles and Manson ‘Family’ member Mary Brunner.
The 56-year-old was born Valentine Michael Manson and nicknamed ‘Pooh Bear’ but was raised by his maternal grandparents, who changed his name before he turned nine.
APMary Brunner also allegedly had a child with Manson but he had nothing to do with the killer[/caption]

Brunner rebuffed multiple attempts by Manson to reconcile before he passed away in 2017 from complications related to colon cancer – after the death, he appeared to downplay his father’s crimes.
In 2019, he told the LA Times: “I would say 95 per cent of the public looks at Charlie as this mass-murdering dog, and it’s really, obviously, just not true. He didn’t necessarily kill.
“I think the public has been fed some untruths, and this whole thing has been glorified and glammified (sic) and blown out of proportion.”
William argues that Michael could throw his hat in the ring for the Manson fortune.
“He’s very established as Charles Manson’s son, it’s not a secret… he could step up but I don’t think he cares that much,” the memorabilia collector tells us.
William explains there are “a lot of people” who have claimed the cult leader “is their father to get attention” but few are being honest and so won’t come forward in the case.
It’s tried and true Manson will never go out of style. In generations times… as Manson told me, he is ‘10 times the Pope, 50 times the Pope
William Harder
He says: “As soon as Freeman established himself as the grandson, people started coming out of the woodwork all of a sudden, as they always do.
“I think because of the actual legal guidelines being set up you have to be able to prove it. Lots of people claim to be Charles Manson’s kids but it’s make-believe.
“They know it in their heart and when it comes down to proving it they know they can’t.”
$1million fortune?
In another twist, the Manson fortune itself is questionable – and may not be worth as much as is believed.
Whoever wins the court case will inherit the cult leader’s belongings including guitars, clothes and other property from jail, which has been kept in storage since his death.
William, whose site MurderAuction.com, sells pieces by killers and dark figures like Manson tells us there could be a “spike” in value for pieces and they could be worth thousands.
He recently purchased multiple pairs of footwear worn by Manson that he says could sell for up to $2,000 a pair – but claims some people will charge up to $10,000 for them.
SuppliedWilliam Harder is currently selling shoes own and worn by Manson[/caption]
Courtesy William HarderHarder (above) predicts there could be ‘a spike’ in prices around Manson memorabilia[/caption]
William says the advent of true crime documentaries on streaming platforms led to “a spike” in prices for Manson memorabilia – but, he insists, collecting those pieces has always been expensive.
He adds: “It’s tried and true Manson will never go out of style. In generations’ times, he will still be discussed and never forgotten. As Manson told me, he is ‘10 times the Pope, 50 times the Pope.’”
What could be more valuable than the belongings are the rights including his likeness, which could be sold for films, and royalties for songs, which some estimate to be worth $1million.
It’s known Manson wrote Guns N’ Roses hit Look at Your Game, Girl from the platinum 1993 album The Spaghetti Incident and songs for The Beach Boys and Marilyn Manson.
William says: “It’s worth looking into, if I was a relative of Charles Manson I would. There may be a lot of money.”
William, of Fresno, California, owns more than 100 Manson items – some of which are being sold on his “eBay-like site” – says the most valuable thing is actually the time he spent with the cult leader.
He said: “It’s the experiences, nothing I own is more dear to me than walking into Corcoran Prison and Charlie coming out of the back room, walking up to me grabbing and pulling me in. You can’t price tag on that.”
William defends his site, which sells murder memorabilia from a range of serial killers including Richard Ramirez, known as ‘The Night Stalker’.
He says: “People will always want to collect things whether you’re that’s baseball cards, civil rights memorabilia, porcelain dolls or Cabbage Patch Kids.
“People love to collect but some people want to collect things that are of a darker nature. It’s not that I think killing people is a good thing.
“This hobby is similar to collecting war art – guns, uniforms and flags. People think collecting war is ok but war is not ok, lots of people are killed and in horrific ways during it.
“I like to collect stuff and have had an interest in it for many years. I enjoy it and many other people share this passion too.”

A DARING mission by the SAS to “kill or kidnap” Nazi general Erwin Rommel during World War Two has been revealed a whopping 80 years later.
Rommel, dubbed “Desert Fox”, was a senior member of Hitler’s war machine who commanded forces in North Africa.

BNPSBrit Tom Moore, one of the six commandos, in Germany in 1945[/caption]
After the Nazi’s French castle was found by SAS Major Bill Fraser, a team of six commandos were assembled to target the officer dubbed “Desert Fox” in the weeks after D-Day in June 1944.
The plan involved a sniper hiding in the woods on the opposite bank of the River Seine to the chateau.
Then they would shoot him from 400 yards while the Nazi military supremo walked in the Italian gardens.
If they managed to take him alive, they would have brought in an aircraft to whisk him out of Nazi-occupied France from a prepared landing strip.
The secret plan was approved by Field Marshal General Bernard Montgomery.
He hoped that by capturing or eliminating Rommel, it would break the deadlock in the weeks after the Normandy invasion amid stalemate fears.
The intelligence dossier on Rommel was incredibly detailed – including the routes he used to travel to and from the chateau, in the village of La Roche-Guyon, 50 miles west of Paris.
It went as specific as the times he usually left the building – which at between 5am and 6am before returning at about 6pm.
He also dined at about 7.30pm and, crucially, after dinner went for a stroll in the grounds, on terrain which was open to a sniper shot from the far bank of the Seine.
One of the six commandos who parachuted in for the high risk operation was British Corporal Tom Moore.

The other elite soldiers were Frenchman Captain Raymond Lee, Second Lieutenant Robert Raillard, Sergeant Pierre Durban, Sergeant Fedossef from Russia, and defecting German Sergeant Max Mark.
But, almost straight after landing behind enemy lines at Dourdan, south west of Paris, on July 25, they learnt that Rommel had been badly injured in an RAF airstrike.
This was while being driven in his staff car from his chateau to the frontline.
Instead of aborting the mission, they met up with French Resistance fighters to mount a series of increasingly bold operations against the enemy.
During an “extremely fruitful week”, they ambushed road convoys, derailed and set a train on fire, shot up another one, and even stormed a German military command post.
This is where Rommel’s staff were stationed and thought that if they couldn’t get him, they’d go after the “courtiers”.
On the night of August 7, they dashed through the darkened streets of Mantes to the command post.
One of the commandos stabbed the sentry guard at the entrance, whose screams alerted those inside.

As the door flung open they opened fire on everyone who ran outside with Bren guns.
A dozen Germans were killed in the shoot-out before they ran out of ammunition.
Vastly outnumbered by the enemy, the commandos had to run for six hours before shaking off their hunters, reaching their farm headquarters completely exhausted.
The friendly farmer produced several bottles of wine to celebrate the attack, their last before they returned to the American lines.
For Cpl Moore, the war was personal as his brother Jack was killed in the Battle of the Java Sea in February 1942.
He did not like to talk about his war exploits so his story has only emerged from the recently discovered family archives of SAS hero Paddy Mayne.
Cpl Moore had served in North Africa and Italy earlier in the war, where it is believed he met Couraud.
After Operation Gaff, he carried out secretive operations in Germany then disarmed enemy forces in Norway.
Then followed a three year post-war stint in India before he returned to Britain to work as a machinist with Rootes Motors in Coventry, Warks, and raise a family.
Nazi Rommel committed suicide by cyanide pill in October 1944 after he was implicated in the July 20 plot to assassinate Hitler.
The team’s hair-raising exploits are told in unprecedented detail in a new book by military historian Damien Lewis, SAS Daggers Drawn.
Inside bizarre theory that Hitler fled Germany
ON APRIL 30, 1945, Adolf Hitler committed suicide by shooting himself in the head.
The maniacal Nazi boss decided to take his own life in the Führerbunker in Berlin after it became clear that Germany would lose the Battle of Berlin.
But in the months and years following his death, however, conspiracy theories circulated over whether or not he actually died – and if he escaped instead.
It all began with the Soviet Union’s decision to seed two contradictory narratives in 1945: that Hitler died by taking cyanide or that he had survived and fled to another country.
Joseph Stalin himself even outright denied Hitler was dead when asked by US President Harry Truman.
It is known some Nazis used hidden escape routes called “ratlines” to flee from Germany as the Third Reich collapsed, with some finding shelter in South America.
Conspiracy theories about Hitler’s death run rampant even some 76 years after he shot himself in the Fuhrerbunker.
Declassified documents unearthed by The Sun Online showed how the UK and US hunted for Hitler for ten years after the end of World War 2 as they feared he was still alive.
Secret documents reveal investigations into claims Hitler had a body double, U-boat sightings in Argentina, and claims that Adolf was photographed alive in Colombia.
One document reported to the FBI in 1947 even described a town called “Casino” near Rio Grande in Brazil which appeared to be “entirely populated” by Germans.
FBI agents interviewed an informant, who claimed to be a former French resistance fighter, who said he saw Hitler and Eva Braun sitting at a resort in the town.
Many notorious Nazis did manage to escape to South America, but it is accepted by history that Hitler and Eva Braun were not among them.
The controversial clash has been widely slammed for the 30-YEAR age gap with Tyson returning after nearly two decades out.
But Tyson said: “I don’t think I’m 58.
“Do you think I feel 58 when I’m fighting these young n****** in the gym, and they’re bashing me them big strong mother*******, and I’m bashing them back.

“Wish I had seen this sooner!” another commented.
“Mine’s broken and I need a new one but all my local Argos are sold out.”
“This could be handy!” a third said.
While there were numerous shoppers raving about the 20m airer, with one writing: “Got the first one the last time time it was on offer, fantastic airer.”
“I got the 1st one last year it’s great!” another said.
But others were quick to admit they’d been left unimpressed after purchasing the 12 metre airer that’s now down to £6 – pointing out the catch with the cheap deal.
“It’s tiny anyway, can only fit my 6 year old’s clothes on it!” one wrote.

It comes after The Sun last month revealed that they have added another property to their portfolio after buying a Miami mansion.
Over the weekend, the famous duo were spotted enjoying some downtime away after a busy year.
David was seen reading Freida McFadden’s psychological thriller The Housemaid’s Secret, while Spice Girl and fashion mogul Victoria was swept away by novel Never Lie by the same author.
They kicked back on their yacht, with David going shirtless, showing off his muscular frame and an impressive array of tattoos.
He wore a pair of black swimming shorts and his hair was untamed.
While and Victoria, 50, looked as chic as ever in a pair of denim shorts, which drew attention to her toned legs.
She teamed her look with a classic black t-shirt and a matching cap.
The couple looked in their element as they were surrounded by staff on board the yacht.
The couple were seen making the most of their getaway, with David closing his eyes and relaxing on a sun lounger.
Earlier this month, The Sun revealed that David and Victoria had paid cash for a new new Miami mansion.
They splashed out on £55.6million for the property overlooking Biscayne Bay, which has a 124ft pool, chef’s kitchen and cinema room.
Paperwork has revealed they did not need a mortgage for the nine-bed pad, which they signed the deeds for on October 3.
An insider said: “David and Victoria are loaded but buying a £55.6million house with cash is impressive.
“They adore it and want to spend as much time there as possible.
“It’s their dream property and the culmination of all their hard work.”
Property empire
The pair have an impressive property portfolio.
As well as an £18million flat inside Miami’s One Thousand Museum building, bought in 2020, they own a £31million townhouse in Holland Park, West London.
The pair also bought a £12million converted barn in the Cotswolds where they spend a lot of time with their children, Brooklyn, 25, Romeo, 22, Cruz, 19 and 13-year-old Harper.
David coins it in from brand partnerships and licensing deals and Victoria’s fashion firm has grown profits.
David launched Inter Miami CF in 2018 and the football club, with star player Lionel Messi, is now reported to be worth £803million.
