BBC Strictly Come Dancing's Anton Du Beke makes show first as he refuses to judge dance

Strictly Come Dancing judge Anton Du Beke was more than a little distracted during Dr Punam Krishan and Gorka Marquez's routine as he refused to judge the performance

Strictly Come Dancing judge Anton Du Beke seemed to overlook Dr Punam Krishan's performance on Saturday evening, as he became completely engrossed by Gorka Marquez's exposed chest. The pair had delivered an energetic jive to Lizzo's '2 Be Loved (Am I Ready)', but failed to impress the judges as much as their previous Bollywood routine, with Craig Revel Horwood describing it as 'sloppy, messy, full of mistakes'.

Motsi Mabuse noted that the 'pressure got to you after last week', pointing out several errors in their dance.

However, Anton was more focused on Gorka's attire than the dance itself, admitting, "I was watching you dance and I thought to myself 'I've got a shirt like that'. It doesn't quite look the same on me as on you, Gorks."

He continued, choosing to divert the topic from the dance, "They're right about what they say so I thought I wouldn't really talk about it. I thought I'd talk about something else. I tied my own tie you know, and I think it's gone rather well. I look forward to seeing you next week."

Gorka quickly came to his partner's defense, stating: "She's a GP. She doesn't do anything to do with performing! " Despite their efforts, the duo scored a modest 20 points out of 40, with a particularly low score of 4 from Craig, reports Birmingham Live.

The audience at home also seemed captivated by Gorka, with social media buzzing about his look. One viewer expressed on Twitter: "Anton just talking about Gorka's shirt than the dance. Anton is just chaotic tonight and I bloody love it."

"I wasn't watching Dr Punam, my eyes were on Gorka and his chest. #Strictly," one viewer commented. "Whoever is in charge of Gorka's wardrobe is definitely having fun in this series.... Thank you," another fan remarked.

A further comment read: "Gorka bringing back the open shirt and shiny pants whenever they might be in a bit of danger ... and I LOVE HIM FOR THAT."
