Amanda Holden and Ashley Roberts got into the spooky spirit as they transformed into Velma and Daphne from Scooby-Doo for Halloween.

Ashley, 42, slipped into Daphne’s iconic purple dress and a ginger wig while Jamie went as Shaggy. Amanda’s beloved dog Rudie even dressed up for the occasion. 

The pooch transformed into the main character Scooby Doo with the help of a cute costume. 

Amanda, meanwhile, put on a leggy display in her thigh-skimming red leather miniskirt which she teamed with orange socks, red heels and a cropped polo neck.

In character: Amanda rocked the iconic look as she wore Velma’s glasses and red bob with heavy fringe which covered stitches on her forehead

The BGT judge finished off the iconic look with Velma’s glasses and red bob with the heavy fringe covering stitches on her forehead. 

Amanda was spotted with stitches on her forehead on Monday.  

The trio appeared in their element as they got into character as Mystery Inc. 

Back in May, it was reported that Amanda is set to take over from the late Paul O’Grady on his beloved show, For The Love Of Dogs. 

The comedian, who died in March at the age of 67, was known as an avid dog-lover and fronted the documentary series since 2012.

But after his untimely death, it is now Amanda who is the favourite to take over.

The TV presenter was not only a friend of the late entertainer but is also an ambassador for Battersea Dogs & Cats Home, where the show is based.

According to The Sun, Amanda’s ‘takeover’ is considered a sensitive issue, considering how closely the Lily Savage star was associated with the series.

Consequently, ITV remain reluctant to to broach the subject just yet. 

An insider told the publication: ‘Execs just feel like it’s too soon to make firm plans about the series, as it’s barely been two months since he died.

‘But the feeling at the home is that it’s what Paul would have wanted. After all, he cared deeply about the animals in Battersea.

‘Amanda is the natural choice to take over the job, not just because she’s an experienced presenter but because she also cares about the home and would do anything for them.’ 

During Paul’s career, he hosted The Paul O’Grady Show, Blind Date and Blankety Blank, as well as ITV’s multi-award-winning For The Love Of Dogs. He also hosted ITV celebrity game show Paul O’Grady’s Saturday Night Line-Up.
