Helen Skelton of bbcstrictly elegantly sidestepped potential disaster in the semi-final
Strictly Come Dancing contestant Helen Skelton managed to evade disaster during Sunday night's semi-final, as her blue sequinned dress was torn by her heel.
Fortunately, Helen was too zoned in to let the wardrobe mishap derail the performance, and the Strictly judges - Shirley Ballas, 62, Craig Revel Horwood, 57, Anton Du Beke, 56, and Motsi Mabuse, 41 - rewarded her handsomely for her efforts. "The shoulders sometimes became a little bit hunched on occasion, but... whatever I've just said, forget that darling, because it was amazing. Absolutely fantastic!"
Another said: "Helen looked stunning in that blue dress! It was a dramatic and intense Argentine Tango."Helen wasn't the only celebrity dancer who suffered a wardrobe malfunction during Sunday's live show, as Coronation Street actor Will Mellor, 46, awkwardly burst his trouser button.
