A deflated Will Mellor apologised to his daughters at home as he appeared disappointed after opening the second Strictly Come Dancing live show on BBC One. In Saturday's opener, a salsa with partner Nancy Xu, the actor said his "mind went blank" on the dancefloor as the judges picked him up on technicalities.
In the interview with Claudia Winkleman after the judge's verdicts, Will looked gutted as he apologised to his daughters who were having a Strictly watching party back home. Will said: "Yeh, Rene and Autumn, sorry it wasn't great for you, I tried my best."
Strictly’s live audience were then heard cheering as Claudia said loudly: “We will not have that.”
