Strictly's Claudia Winkleman shuts down Anton du Beke as Tess Daly struggles to keep a straight face

Claudia Winkleman was forced to step in and shut down Anton du Beke after he made a cheeky comment about Tess Daly's dress on Strictly Come Dancing.

During Saturday night's show, Tess wore a stunning black and gold gown, which caught the eye of her co-host.

"Tess, you look ravishing," Anton said. "Is that a new dress?"

Tess replied, "Yes, it is. Thank you."

Anton then quipped, "Well, it's certainly doing something for me."

Claudia quickly stepped in to shut down Anton's flirting, saying, "Oh, Anton, behave yourself."

Tess struggled to keep a straight face, while Anton simply laughed.

The moment was met with a mixed reaction from viewers on social media, with some finding it funny and others criticizing Anton for being inappropriate.

One viewer tweeted, "Anton is such a flirt! I love it."

Another viewer tweeted, "Anton needs to learn to keep his comments to himself. It was inappropriate."

The incident is just one example of the playful banter that often takes place between the Strictly hosts.

Claudia, Tess, and Anton have a great rapport, and they are not afraid to tease each other.

However, it is important to remember that there is a line between playful banter and inappropriate behavior.

Anton's comment about Tess's dress was harmless enough, but it is important to be aware of the potential for such comments to be misinterpreted.
