Strictly Come Dancing Argentine Tango

He might have soared toward the top of scoreboard along with his sensational samba – but it was a different story with regards to came to Jake Wood’s most recent Strictly routine.

Saturday night’s ‘around-the-world’ themed show saw the EastEnders’ stalwart accepting the Argentine Tango with companion Janette Manrara – except his variation ended up being more Greek than Argentinian.

Also it didn’t take long for Craig Revel Horwood to launch a scathing assault on program, labelling it a ‘dance disaster’. Oh dear.

‘It went horribly incorrect right from the start, ’ he reported. ‘There had been a large old accident, then you were crashing in the various other dancers. It performedn’t work, unfortunately.’

Happily for him one other judges had been just a little less crucial, although Bruno uncharitably referred to it as ‘a Eurovision tango’, including: ‘We lacked Graham Norton commentary and Conchita Wurst appearing.’

Yikes. So perhaps not his best few days then – with Craig carefully putting the boot in by giving the star simply five out-of ten for his efforts.
