The grand ol’ man of easy listening Barry Manilow graced Strictly Come Dancing to bring joy to the hearts of the people.

But much as they swooned at his timeless Copacabana (At the Copa), the people couldn’t help but notice that something has happened to Bazza’s face.

There were all manner of theories put forward in the Twittersphere.

Some were transported back to the magic of their childhood.

Lots of Thunderbirds fans showed their age.

Soap junkies were put in mind of the cobbles of Weatherfield.

Some wondered whether Barry’s new face had been bequethed by another great American star of the 20th century.

Others claimed that Strictly’s heart and soul had found a way back on to the show.

Some saw it all as part of a David Icke-esque conspiracy theory.

And some were downright frightened.
