Chris McCausland has made an open 'honest' admission after last weekend's Strictly Come Dancing episode.

Chris, aged 47, along with his professional partner Dianne Buswell, 35, delivered a fiery Tango paying homage to rock legends KISS, dancing to Rock and Roll All Nite.

On X, formerly known as Twitter, Chris said: "Thank you to everybody that voted to keep us in #Strictly - I have a good feeling about this coming week! X".

Before following it up with a second post: "If I'm honest, I was quite down on myself in that interview clip straight after the dance that was on the results show tonight because I thought I had made a pretty big mistake. I realised later that I hadn't. I'm feeling good. Thank you for all of your support! X#Strictly".

Chris's joke falls flat

Their energetic performance earned them a decent 29 points, but far from their best.

Post-dance, host Tess Daly said, "Listen to that applause Chris, I think Dave Arch enjoyed playing that as much as you enjoyed dancing it!"

In response, Chris quipped: "Well you know, dancing a Tango on BBC, I can only imagine someone's got to dance a Fanta now just to balance it out!"

However, the humorous attempt seemed to falter slightly regarding audience reaction, as no one seemed to get the joke. Tango/Fanta, how did no one get it?

Despite this, and ever the professional Chris shot back with: "Yeah, that was funnier in my head, shame this isn't pre-recorded innit?"
