Brian Conley reportedly branded the Strictly Come Dancing studio a ‘s**thole’ and claimed that judge Darcey Bussell is ‘horny’ after jumping on the judge’s table following his eviction. The scenes were cut from the pre-recorded episode which aired on Sunday evening, but Conley later admitted that he doesn’t ‘regret’ making the comments, in front of the TV audience who were left shocked by the outburst.

He also alleged that ‘they only spend £25 on the toilet’. ‘No one knows where it came from and everyone was incredibly shocked, but luckily Darcey saw the funny side of it. Brian was on thin ice though because it would have been very easy to annoy everyone by hijacking the show like that,’ a source close to the BBC show said. ‘The audience had no idea what was going on and there were a lot of gasps. Everyone was very surprised and the targeting of Darcey was just odd.’

Speaking to The Sun, Brian added: ‘I don’t regret what I said. I was having fun and the toilets here are terrible.’

Brian became the fourth Strictly Come Dancing hopeful to waltz their way off the competition dancefloor on Sunday night after he found himself in the bottom two along with his professional partner Amy Dowden, and chef and TV presenter Simon Rimmer and his partner Karen Clifton. ‘I have loved everything about this, I truly have,’ said Brian. ‘It’s one of the greatest shows, it’s a family show. And you know what, there has been someone by my side all the way through this journey who has been just there every moment and that is… Aston! I love him and I am really going to miss him!’
