BBC Strictly Come Dancing fans distracted as Jamie Borthwick 'done dirty'
by Jessica Sansome · Manchester Evening NewsJamie Borthwick caused a major distraction among Strictly Come Dancing viewers who claimed he was 'done dirty' on tonight's show (October 12). The EastEnders actor performed in week four of the BBC One dance contest on Saturday.
.Jamie and his dance partner Michelle Tsiakkas earned a standing ovation as well as a score of 34 points, their highest of the series so far, for their Salsa to Danza Kuduro by Don Omar and Lucenzo with Anton Du Beke telling the pair it was their "best dance to date".
The compliments didn't stop there either as Craig Revel Horwood called Jamie an 'incredible dancer', while Motsi Mabuse said that the soap star 'shines' on the dancefloor.
But it appears fans of the show couldn't see past Jamie's outfit. The actor, famed for playing Jay Brown/Mitchell in BBC soap EastEnders, was seen sporting a blue polo shirt with sparkly sleeves paired with a purple pair of shorts, blue trainers and white socks.
Taking to social media, @cjcreativejuice said: "Wardrobe’s done Jamie dirty with that outfit. He looks like an inbetweener #Strictly." @WriterofQueen commented: "Sorry why does Jamie's outfit look like something from this week's shopping task on Big Brother #Strictly #StrictlyComeDancing."
@wanderesc1 commented: "This feels a bit awkward from Jamie the outfit really doesn't help polo shirt? #strictly." @ameliaabethany wrote: "Jamie is giving Jake when he went to Florida in b99 #Strictly." @thejasvalentine asked: "Why have they dressed Jamie like a staff member at Benidorm’s Solana? #Strictly."
@jxdieb echoed: "Jamie looks like he’s about to do a shift in the Solana #Strictly." @StartWithThis added: "I love Jamie but I don’t like how they have made him look like an extra in Benidorm #Strictly #StrictlyComeDancing."
