BBC Strictly's Helen Skelton has wardrobe mishap as judges share concerns about presenter

TV presenter Helen Skelton has gone from strength to strength this autumn thanks to her stint on Strictly Come Dancing after a tough start to the year when she split from her husband weeks after giving birth. But on Sunday, December 11 she showed how to keep calm and carry on after her heel became caught in her dress while doing the Argentine Tango in the semi-final of the BBC dancing comepetition.

The On the Farm host was performing her second dance of the night with professional partner, Gorka Marquez, when her heel got caught in her stunning blue sequin dress leaving the hem a bit frayed. The pair carried on with the dance and after it ended, host Tess Daly asked the celeb: " "Is your dress ok? I know it got caught a little bit in your heel."

It didn't seem to matter, though, as the duo went on to score 37 out of 40 from the judges, scoring a nine from Craig, 10 from Motsi and an eight from Shirley, while Anton awarded them 10.
