Strictly's Jayde Adams says dancing the tango makes you 'look like you need a wee'

Their Saturday night dance was full fo strength and passion but comedian Jayde Adams had a slightly different critique of her and partner Karen's dance to the judges. Speaking to host Claudia Winkleman, while awaiting her scores, Bristol's own Jayde Adams gave her assessment of one of the most famous ballroom dances.

Jayde had previosuly expressed how much she hoped to learn the tango, and dance to one of her favourite artists Adele and tonight she got her wish, marching around the Strictly dance floor to Rumour Has It . But in the post-dance interview she was asked about finding the dance harder than she expected.

Jayde said: "I'm on Cloud 9... but there's so much footwork. You've got to look like you need a wee. It has been so great, learning the dance that I love so much."

The judges are clearly in love with Jayde as much as us, lavishing her with praise and a respectable score. Both Anton Du Beke and Craig Revel Horwood declared: "I loved it."

Meanwhile judge Motsie Mabuse said: "I can't take my eyes off of you." And head judge Shirley Ballas said: "I want to sit up and pay attention. You are totally in command and I am under your spell."

Jayde came to Bristol to practice her tango this week at Temple Meads and a local school but the footage has yet to be shown on TV. Her practice paid off as she received a respectable score of 26, putting her in the top half of the leaderboard.

But we will have to wait until Sunday night to find out if Jayde will dance another week. We're keeping everything crossed.
