Strictly Come Dancing's Pete Wicks puts his head in hands and says 'I don't like this' live on air


The former TOWIE star has been sent through to the Blackpool Tower ballroom after being saved by the public this weekend, but he was left red-faced after hearing what he'd be dancing to

The ex-TOWIE star, 36, was saved by the public this weekend after delivering an impressive couple's choice routine on Saturday to The Best by Nicotine Dolls, a heartfelt tribute to his late nan. Both judges and viewers were moved by Pete's performance due to the personal significance of the song choice, which was played at his nan's funeral. She explained that their next dance would be the cheesy anthem I'm Too Sexy, which was a huge hit in 1991 for brothers Richard and Fred Fairbrass, with the song topping the charts in seven countries.
