Strictly Come Dancing's Georgia May Foote puts on sexy display in slashed dress... before irate Len Goodman scolds partner Giovanni Pernice in shocking outburst
He's a man who rarely loses his cool.
But Len Goodman lost his temper on Saturday's episode of Strictly Come Dancing as he put professional dancer Giovanni Pernice and his celebrity partner Georgia May Foote in their place.
The couple had just performed an incredibly steamy Rumba to Sam Smith's Writing's On The Wall, with the 24-year-old former Coronation Street star looking particularly striking in a figure-hugging, slashed black dress.

Steamy indeed: Georgia May Foote looked incredible as she put on an intimate performance of the Rumba with Giovanni Pernice on Saturday's Strictly Come Dancing
However, after their intimate performance, head judge Len couldn't bite his tongue when it came to giving her and her partner, a newcomer to Strictly, a dressing-down.
Although not particularly clear as to why he erupted at the couple, he waved his finger as he scolded them: 'Look at you.'
It seems that Len was remarking to Giovanni's reaction to the other judges' comments beforehand, as he shook his head in disagreement.
He went on: 'All that shaking your head really gets on my wick so I'm going to tell you the truth.
Not impressed: But head judge Len Goodman was less than thrilled at pro dancer Giovanni's head-shaking, scolding him for 'getting on my wick' and for 'larking about'
Awkward: Newcomer to Strictly Giovanni had shaken his head, while Georgia was left blushing after Len's comments
'Too much posturing, posing and larking about. Two openings and one forward basic does not constitute a Rumba in my world!'
Presenter Tess Daly then tried her best to make light of the situation - which caused Georgia to look notably mortified - joking: 'That's a smack on the wrist for you Giovanni. You won't be doing that again!'
And afterwards, as they went to chat to Claudia Winklemen, she advised him: 'So you made Len angry and Len never gets angry. Never shake your head when they speak.'
His outburst shocked viewers at home, who took to Twitter to express their surprise and disgust at his anger.
One fan wrote: 'I think that was quite unprofessional and uncalled for from @GrumpyLGoodman. #Strictly.'

Another added: 'Len Goodman that was aggressive, bullish and rude!! If you have an issue take it aside. Out of order. Not relaxing TV. #strictly #giovanni.'
'Saw the darker side of Len Goodman tonight. Like being told off by your Grandpa - always hurts. Naughty Len! #strictly @GrumpyLGoodman,' a Twitter spectator commented.
And one more retracted an apparent crush, thanks to his behaviour: 'Has Len Goodman calmed down yet? I used to have a crush on him, but a manopausal grump is not a pleasant grump #strictly #poorGiovanni.'
Georgia and Giovanni went on to score a not-too-fantastic 27 points, after receiving 7s from the other judges - Bruno Tonioli, Darcey Bussell and Craig Revel Horwood - putting them in the middle of the leaderboard.
And, while they only made a middling impression on the judges, it's fair to say the ex-Corrie beauty's racy ensemble and steamy performance certainly got viewers' pulses racing.
She did her best Bond girl impression with Giovanni with their Rumba to Sam Smith's brand new theme song for the upcoming flick.
The brunette stunner looked sensational in a slashed black gown as she danced the incredibly intimate routine which saw her and Giovanni get increasingly close including a moment where he looked to nearly kiss her.

She's got some front! The brunette stunner looked incredible in a racy, cleavage-baring black dress that hugged her curves
Over she goes: Although they didn't completely win over the judges, it's fair to say they danced a memorable routine on Saturday
She wore a flesh-flashing black dress with cleavage-baring slash across the front, while Giovanni gave a glimpse of chest during the intimate routine.
At one point, their thrilling routine was kicked up a notch as he seemingly flung her backwards, allowing her to reveal her lovely legs in the sexy garment.
Bruno said of their dance, after finishing: 'I thought it was a very nice Rumba. I know what you were trying to do... You were trying to get in the vampish bond girl mood.
Craig added: 'I totally agree with Bruno on that point - your spins are so clean, I love all the drama, you have strong lines... I absolutely loved it.'
'It had plenty of intensity,' Darcey added with agreement. 'As soon as he got hold of you you could feel it. I would only say with a Rumba it could have been larger and more languid.'
Intimate: Part of the dance included a faux-kiss
Middling: They ended up scoring 27 points, putting them in the middle of the leaderboard
