It Takes Two host Fleur East was forced to issue an apology live on air after professional dancer Alexis Warr used “bad language” during the broadcast. The Strictly spin-off show welcomed Alexis Warr and her partner George Clarke to discuss their stellar performance over the weekend. But as Alexis was explaining a minor hiccup during their routine, she slipped out the word “cr*p” causing Fleur to halt the interview and apologise.
Dancer Alexis said: “At the beginning he hit his position and I knew right away he was locked in and I was just like yes George – and I almost forgot to go, because I was like oh wait crap I have to move”. Fleur briefly paused the programme as she issued an apology to fans at home. She told BBC viewers: “Sorry about the language you just heard, we just get very excited”. Fans slammed the apology, dubbing it “ridiculous”.
Caught off guard, George awkwardly smiled before replying: “Yes… that’s fantastic news,” leaving the studio audience and his co-stars in fits of laughter.
Fans immediately dubbed him an “honest king” online, praising his down-to-earth nature. One viewer posted: “George’s face when he had no idea what the movie was — national treasure behaviour already.” Another joked: “Someone get George a copy of K-Pop Demon Hunters before Saturday!”
Speaking after the show, George admitted he’s still learning to handle the whirlwind pace of Strictly: “Every week it’s something new. I’m having the best time but there’s a lot to take in — the steps, the styles, the costumes, everything.”
