Fans make plea to BBC

“They need to find a permanent slot for Aljaz on #ittakestwo,” one viewer tweeted.
“Loved seeing @AljazSkorjanec back on #ittakestwo tonight. So many great ideas from other countries who do #strictly across the world,” another said.
“Wonderful to see our darling @AljazSkorjanec back on #ItTakesTwo. He is much missed on #Strictly. What a joyful surprise,” a third wrote.
