Strictly's Tony Adams forced to apologise to Shirley Ballas after telling her to 'go home'

Strictly Come Dancing 's Tony Adams apologised to judge Shirley Ballas during Saturday evening’s live show, after he told her to ‘go home’.

The Strictly contestant became embroiled in controversy last week during the judges scoring of Tony’s cha-cha, which he performed with partner Katya Jones to the Grandstand theme tune. Tony's routine left head judge Shirley critical of his missteps as she said: “You are a ray of sunshine, but below the knee it just rains.”

When Shirley Ballas scored him a '4', Tony was seen on camera heckling: “Shirley! Go home!!” Tony's landed in bottom place with 19, but managed to avoid the dreaded dance-off thanks to viewers’ votes.
