One of the stars on BBC's Strictly Come Dancing show is being judged for more than just their dance moves. Anton Du Beke thought it would be funny to call his dancing partner, Laila Rouass, a 'Paki' due to the crazy amount fake tan she sprays on herself.

Du Beke previously joked that Rouass could be a terrorist because she's of Moroccan descent - it has been alleged.

Don't give up the day job, Anton - your no-holds-barred comedy routine needs some work.

    • People are calling for the bloke to be sacked from the show for the 'gag'.

      What an idiot. Why would anyone ever think they could say that word as a joke and get away with it?

      Funny how a much bigger fuss gets kicked up when it's somebody saying it on Big Brother but the same rules of outrage don't seem to apply to a housewives' favourite show.

    • How could he think that was acceptable? Many people have made 'jokes' and have suffered the consequences, surely that would of been enough to make him watch his mouth.
