Strictly Come Dancing's Gorka Marquez didn't take criticism of his performance well on Saturday's show, according to a body language expert
There seems to be a bit of a tiff brewing on the Strictly Come Dancing dance floor between professional dancer Gorka Marquez and judge Craig Revel Horwood. This past Saturday, Gorka and his partner Dr Punam didn't exactly wow the judges with their Jive to Lizzo's 2 Be Loved, with a few missteps noted.
Anton Du Beke chimed in with some positivity, but Craig remained unimpressed, telling her it wasn't her night, reports Wales Online. Despite Gorka keeping his cool during the feedback, body language expert Darren Stanton reckons he took the criticism personally. He added: "He also voiced how he felt, and said, 'she's a GP, not a dancer', defending the comments. Punam has been super confident from the outset, but I feel in the last week or so, we've seen a decrease in illustrators e.g. her facial expressions."
In the end, they scored a mere 20 out of a possible 40, placing them at the bottom of the leaderboard. Despite this, the pair were spared by public vote for another week.
