Taking to Instagram yesterday, Sugg revealed he'd dressed up as the Strictly and Traitors host for his sister's birthday party.

Revealing that his famous sister Zoë Sugg (aka Zoella) had opted for a Traitors theme this year, Joe shared a hilarious video of himself in a full Claudia outfit.

"Well, @zoesugg wanted to play The Traitors for her birthday and I’ve always wanted to know what it’s like to be @claudiawinkle picking up @diannebuswell from a train station," he captioned the post.

The video clearly caught Claudia's attention, who called the fancy dress costume "AMAZING" in the comment section.

In the video, Joe, wearing a fringed black wig and heavy black eyeline, explains why he dressed as the presenter rather than a Traitors contestant.

"For my sister's birthday this year, she wanted to play The Traitors," Joe says in the clip. "And this was a great idea, but it needed a host."

In one hilarious moment from the video, Joe tells the camera he forgot he had to pick up his Strictly dance pro partner Dianne Buswell from the train station, so had to do it dressed up as Claudia.

"I can't quite believe I'm doing this," he said. "Just Claudia Winkleman at the traffic lights. There's people looking at me."

At the station, Dianne opened the door in fits of laughter, specifically pointing out Joe's leggings and asking: "Are those my leggings?"

You look like a mum picking me up from school," she quipped.

The end of the video sees Joe sporting the full look, which includes black leggings and a brown jumper, mirroring Claudia's country-goth Traitors fashion style.
