It wasn't a good night for one half of TV's favourite culinary duo, Dave Myers, who went straight to the bottom of the leaderboard for his first Strictly Come Dancing routine.

The Hairy Biker was the third celebrity to take to the dancefloor on the second show of the series alongside partner Karen Hauer.

Dressed in white sparkly outfits, the pair took on the cha-cha to hit single Moves Like Jagger by Maroon 5 on Saturday.

The TV cook, who admitted he loved his smart Strictly makeover but was terrified ahead of the dance, left judge Craig Revel Horwood looking far from pleased.

The hard-to-please panelist said: 'Terrifying. I actually recoiled in horror when you came over to the judges desk.'

Adding that he had an overwhelming feeling of 'revoltion' when the star gyrated as part of the routine.

However the 55-year-old left Darcey Bussell with a smile of her face, as she said she was strangely in love with the chef.

Len Goodman added that Dave, who achieved a result of 16 from the judges, danced how he cooked by chucking it all in and hoping for the best.

Although the head judge finished off by saying he was glad the enthusiastic celebrity was on the show.

Speaking about his first dance, Dave told presenter Tess Daly: 'I thoroughly enjoyed myself. All the steps were there, maybe not in order or in place.'

The couple were awarded a two from Craig, a five from Darcey, a five from Len and a four from Bruno Toniloi.

The celebrities escape a public vote this week and no one will be leaving the competition.

The judges scores will be carried across to next week in which two celebrity couples will be given the boot.
