Strictly Come Dancing’s Helen Skelton and Gorka Marquez caused major disruption after “too much bouncing” during their routine.
The pair have gone from strength to strength throughout the BBC dance competition and will perform at the Blackpool Tower Ballroom this weekend. As Strictly is returning to Blackpool Tower's famous ballroom for the first time in three years this week, Rylan welcomed celebrity panellists Jenny Ryan, OJ Borg and Rhys Stephenson on Strictly spin-off It Takes Two as they discussed the remaining stars upcoming performances.

Jenny said: "I just want her to go for it, because there are moments where there is a difficult bit coming up and you can read it on her face. To hell with any mistakes she should just go for it and let go.”
Rylan then introduced co-presenter Janette who was standing by the dance floor with Series Director Nikki Parsons. Chatting to Nikki, Janette asked: “When it comes to the couple's dancers, is there any particular couple's dance that has been a little harder for you to plot?”
Nikki revealed: “Yes so this morning we were rehearsing with Helen and Gorka and they are doing the quick step. There are extra dancers and because the floor bounces, they were bouncing and the camera was bouncing. We had to change a couple of the shots because of the bouncing.”
Helen and Gorka will be performing a quickstep to Valerie by Mark Ronson featuring Amy Winehouse on Saturday night. Talking about getting through to Blackpool week on Instagram, Helen said: “Blackpool week! Thanks for getting Gorka and I this far. Your support and messages are overwhelming and so kind! Day one of the quickstep done and the shoes will no longer go on my feet (standard) but on we trot to Blackpool…to home!”
