Helen Skelton and Gorka Marquez 'forced' Strictly Come Dancing: It Takes Two star Janette Manrara to step in and take action during Thursday's episode, after their 'love fest' got too much for the presenter to take.
The couple have so far managed to avoid the dreaded Strictly dance-off, although there was a rather scary moment for them last weekend when they were one of just two couples left standing to find out who would join Fleur East in the bottom two. Gorka and Helen were left to await their fate, alongside James Byer and Amy Dowden and it ended up being their rivals who had to battle to stay in the show, only to to lose out to Fleur and Vito and become the fifth pair to leave.
Helen has been hit by crippling lack of confidence during her time on the show, with Gorka giving her a very public show of support when he spoke out during a live show to tell her she was 'an amazing, woman, an amazing mum and an amazing dancer." Helen and Gorka's high point of the series so far came a fortnight ago when their Blue Peter themed Charleston saw them top the leaderboard with a score of 35 during the BBC 100th Birthday special.
