Strictly star Tony Adams left viewers in hysterics last night with a remark to head judge Shirley Ballas.
Tony and his professional dance partner Katya Jones danced the Cha Cha Cha to the Grandstand theme tune to mark the show’s special episode.
On Saturday night, the celebrities and their partners paid tribute to 100 years of the BBC with special themed dances.

The episode saw James Bye dance to the EastEnders theme tune while Will Mellor performed to the Line of Duty end titles.
Former footballer Tony took to the dance floor with Katya to perform the Cha Cha Cha.
However, when it came to the scoring, Tony playfully hit back at Shirley’s score of four.
Craig Revel Horwood gave the pair a three while Motsi Mabuse gave them a six.
