Northern accents are just paso doble Dutch to Strictly Come Dancing judge Motsi Mabuse.
The South African-German dancer is fluent in five languages and can get by in a sixth, but has to ask Strictly co-star Craig Revel Horwood to translate some contestants’ thick dialects.
Motsi, 41, is fluent in English, German and three South African languages including Afrikaans and Setswana, and also speaks a little of husband Marius Lepure’s native tongue, Romanian.
