Victoria Pendleton to transform into corpse bride for 'Strictly' Halloween special

Olympic gold medallist Victoria Pendleton will reportedly transform into a corpse bride for this Saturday's Halloween special edition of Strictly Come Dancing on BBC One.

The retired cyclist is expected to dress as a goth-like bride in her tango routine with professional dance partner Brendan Cole, according to reports.

It is believed that the 32-year-old will carry out her routine to Billy Idol's 'White Wedding', with axed dancer Anton Du Beke expected to return to the show as the couple's vicar, who will officiate the ceremony.

Pendleton has survived the first two public votes.
