Tonight on the Strictly Come Dancing spin-off show It Takes Two, viewers and host Fleur East were left speechless by the unexpected outburst from eliminated star Toyah Wilcox. The 1980s singer-songwriter, who was partnered with Neil Jones, appeared on the show following their elimination on Sunday night. The pair were sent home after a dance off against Paul Merson and Karen Hauer, where Toyah reprised her samba to the Disney song "Poor Unfortunate Souls".
Reflecting on her time in the ballroom, Toyah offered some shocking advice to the remaining competitors. When Fleur asked her for any tips or advice, Toyah jokingly replied, "If you don't want to do a dance-off, get rid of Chris!" This caused an awkward moment between Fleur, Neil, and Toyah, with the latter collapsing into her pro partner's lap in a fit of laughter. Neil then joked, "I think she has chosen her winner already."
After watching the exchange, fans took to social media to share their thoughts, with many expressing outrage at Toyah's apparent vitriol towards fellow contestant Chris. Some even called her comments "nasty" and "mean". Meanwhile, Chris and his partner Dianne Buswell have become fan favorites, earning their highest scores so far for their Wayne's World-inspired jive. The pair, who transformed into Garth and Wayne from the hit 1992 film, received a total of 30 points for their performance.
Chris, who is the first blind contestant to appear on the show, has also helped to bring a new level of inclusivity to Strictly Come Dancing. The show introduced audio description for the first time this year, allowing a whole new audience to tune in. And with bookies placing him as the favorite to win the glitterball trophy, Chris has become an early fan favorite.
It Takes Two airs weekdays from 6.30pm on BBC Two and iPlayer.
