Anton Du Beke jokes about dance move with Craig Revel Horwood<\/h3>\n

Anton du Beke’s playful pre-watershed comment about himself and Craig Revel-Horwood allegedly saw Strictly Come Dancing bosses warn the star that he’d taken things “too far”.<\/p>\n

The 57-year-old was reportedly warned to “tone it down” after he suggested that himself and Craig had done a lift while the latter had been nude.<\/p>\n

He’d made the comment following a Samba performed by Layton Williams and Nikita Kuzmin, which received a record-breaking 39 points out of a possible 40 – the show’s highest week five score in 13 years.<\/p>\n

Quipping that Craig should have worn clothes, Anton went on to explain: “The only reason I’m telling you this is because I have nothing to say about this dance \u2014 it was pretty much perfect.”<\/p>\n

According to a source published in The Sun: “Producers reminded Anton that Strictly is a family show and cheeky, subtle innuendo for the adult viewers is fine but he\u2019d taken things a little too far.\u201d<\/p>\n

Express.co.uk has approached the BBC for comment.<\/p>\n

Anton’s anecdote – “I said, ‘Why don’t we try that lift?’, so [Craig] came at me and I said, ‘Shouldn’t you put some clothes on?'”‘ – left many viewers in hysterics.<\/p>\n

Taking to Twitter to share that they’d seen the funny side, one follower wrote: “Still laughing! Love Anton’s sense of humour.”<\/p>\n

Another exclaimed: “I’ll never get rid of that image of Anton and Craig now!”<\/p>\n
