STRICTLY Come Dancing has been hit with a fresh fix claim after fans accused Sarah Hadland and her professional partner of having an "unfair" advantage ahead of Musicals Week.

The Miranda star is set to perform a routine to Popular from the hit musical Wicked.

While Musicals Week is always a fan-favorite, some viewers believe Sarah has a leg up on the competition.

This is because the recent release of the highly-anticipated Wicked remake has made the song more relevant than others.

Taking to an online forum to complain about the song selections, one fan wrote: "Seems particularly unfair that one person gets a dance everyone loves to a song that is extremely in the public eye at the moment, while someone else gets a dance the public can never be bothered with to a musical that is pretty unknown."

Another added: "Top of the leader board will likely be Sarah."

A third was surprised by the decision, exclaiming: "Sarah and Vito get a Charleston and a tie in to Wicked - blimey! Popular indeed."

Someone else complained that their favourite is being purposely edged out, saying: "The BBC are so obvious with who they want out. I mean, this is practically a 'tell me you want Montell out without actually telling me' situation.

"It's ludicrous to give a rumba on Musicals week to a contestant who's been in the bottom three times?

"I see you Strictly producers, I see you. Montell deserves better! I would've loved to have seen a Charleston from team Jojo this week!

"They stitched up Shayne and now they're stitching up Montell.

"The difference though is that Montell is too good to leave this early. She should be a finalist! I'm fuming!"

Sarah has often come in at the top of the leader board this season, and has gushed that her partner Vito has really helped her get into character for each of their performances.

However, she has laughed at the suggestion that there is any sex appeal involved in her dancing, retorting: "I don’t see any sex or sass!

"I don’t play parts like that, so this is so far out of my comfort zone of being very smiley and up.

"I just don’t feel sexy. I don’t look at myself that way."
