Janette Manrara hosted Strictly: It Takes Two last night and has been defended by viewers following criticism.
The former Strictly Come Dancing pro is sharing hosting duties with Rylan Clark-Neal on the BBC Two spin-off programme.
Last night (September 29), Janette hosted the 30-minute episode as she spoke to some of this year’s contestants.

“Wish my luck,” as she waved her hands suggesting she was feeling a bit nervous.
Janette then got into the show as she introduced what was coming up.
However, some viewers watching accused her of shouting and complained on Twitter.
One person said: “Can someone tell Janette Manrara to stop SHOUTING!!!”
Another wrote: “@bbcstrictly #ItTakesTwo can tonight’s presenter please stop SHOUTING, she may be new my bloody ears are ringing.”
A third added: “Very nice having Janette, could she lower her voice had to turn [the] sound right down she shouts when talking, not nice.”
Many of Janette’s fans then jumped to her defence.
One tweeted: “Sorry, but I am actually finding it amusing that some people are moaning that @JManrara is shouting or they think she’s being OTT etc (I think she’s doing a good job/is nervous BTW).
“SCD is a loud, OTT show and thrives on it, oh the irony.”
Another gushed: “Loving Janette as presenter, she’s a total natural.”
A third added: “Super presenter! Janette sparkled her way through the programme with energy, enthusiasm, knowledge and dance movement. She’s an excellent choice!”
We agree!
