CORONATION Street star Catherine Tyldesley wowed Strictly judges as she performed a Beyoncé Charleston on the programme last night.

Dozens of people took to social media after the competition to praise the Walkden actress for her fast-pace routine.

A number of fans described her as "pretty in pink", as she stepped out onto the stage to showcase her footwork.

The actress, who is paired with pro partner Johannes Radebe, told the BBC that the "hardest bit about the routine is the lifts."

Judge Motsi Mabuse described their dance as "a joy to watch", while Shirly Ballas said Tyldesley had "conquered the world".

Meanwhile, viewers told them it was "brilliant and never to tone it down".
