She said: "I mucked up lots of the steps, I’m so sorry. This man has worked so hard and has been so patient." Of course, Kai wouldn’t hear her apology, as he said: "The times we have got tough in training and you have dusted it off, you’re a trooper in training… It’s only a minor mistake!" Claudia agreed, reminding Kaye that the judges had said that her "line was beautiful".

Taking to Twitter, one person wrote: "A couple of stumbles and a bit of lagging but a strong start from Kaye. 6/7 area." Another person added: "A few mistakes with nerves which is understandable but I actually liked that from Kaye. Control the nerves and there’s some potential! #Strictly."

"He's so talented, a great sense of humour and he's really made me feel so comfortable, and I didn't think I would be able to feel so comfortable with someone so much younger, but it's just taken out of the equation because he's just a talented professional, really lovely guy and so I'm thrilled."
