Strictlys Craig Revel Horwood distracted by Matt Gosss very tight white trousers

Strictly Come Dancing judge Craig Revel Horwood admitted he was very much distracted from Matt Goss's dance routine because of his 'tight white trousers' on Saturday night.

The Bros singer, 55, is paired with Nadiya Bychkova for this year's series and the duo performed a Samba to Night Fever by the Bee Gees.

Presenter Tess Daly thanked the pair for "bringing the disco vibes to the ballroom" after the dance ended, adding: "I know it was your dream to recreate that iconic John Travolta moment."

Matt, still out of breath from his performance, replied: "It was… I tried."

While they later scored him just 22 out of a possible 40 points, the panel found some positive things to say about the pop star, with Motsi Mabuse saying Matt has "that groove,: adding: "There's something just extra, extra, that you just have that shines through."

Anton Du Beke also labelled Matt thrusting towards the judges' table as a "magical moment."

Craig went a step further though, admitting he was "distracted" from Matt's routine because of the "tight white trousers" he wore for the dance.

He said: "I was slightly distracted through the whole thing by those very tight white trousers which you unleashed on the nation.

"You certainly grooved out the disco stuff, you do need to work on your Samba technique, but well done."

The distraction didn't help him win a high score from Craig though, as he gave him just four points while the other judges each gave a six.

Elsewhere on Saturday night's show, Strictly fans were left bemused after Shirley Ballas made a blunder live on-air right at the beginning of the show.

As the show opened, Tess Daly turned to Shirley, 62, for a comment after she announced the voting lines would be opened for the first time this series.

Her question was followed by an awkward silence as the camera cut to a confused-looking Shirley who just stared at Tess before the presenter had to repeat the question.

Shirley then said: "Well, hello, how are you all? First of all, I just made it to my seat by the skin of my teeth. Anyway…"

She then went on to implore fans of the show to make sure they were calling in to vote and to "do it for us [judges]" as she didn't want to send anyone home.

Her awkward blunder had fans rushing to Twitter to comment, as one wrote: "That was so awkward help #Strictly."

Another tweeted: "Did Shirley forget she was on the telly? #Strictly," whilst someone else joked: "Wake up Shirley #Strictly" with laughing emojis.

A fourth wrote: "Is Shirley ok hun?", while another viewer added: "Well that wasn’t awkward #Strictly."
