Strictly Come Dancing star Bobby Brazier seemed to shake off complains that his intense performance with dance partner Dianne Buswell made a fan feel 'uncomfortable'.
The grumble came after Saturday's show as the favourites performed the Argentine Tango, which ended in a passionate near-kiss between the pair. The duo earned 30 points out of 40 and most watching at home loved what they saw as they so nearly embraced on the dancefloor, sending millions into a frenzy at home.
But, one viewer wasn't happy at the sight of the dancing duo's foreheads pressed against one another. Taking to instagram to make their point clear, the user would have been stunned to see the EastEnders star himself respond.

The dance was impeccable just didn't like how intimate it looked."
Bobby quickly took to the comments and responded by simply writing: "Job done." The young actor 20, sent fans into a frenzy when he appeared to almost lock lips with the Aussie, 34, following their tango but a leading body language expert says it shouldn't be seen as authentic.

After admitting he 'loved' Dianne, despite the dancer being in a relationship with Joe Sugg, and Bobby reportedly still "besotted" with his ex, Tillie Amartey, fans have been speculating for weeks over a possible romance between the pair in the future.

"What happens out there on the dancefloor is always fake in terms of the body language."
Pointing out celebrities are "too busy remembering steps and timing or trying to catch their breath to be declaring undying love to the world as well," she said: "All pro dancers are trained to excel at the look of passion and it can often mislead the audience into believing they’ve seen something authentic and spontaneous, so although this particular near-kiss did get our jaws dropping it shouldn’t be seen as a sign of anything authentic. It’s when the couples are off the floor that their body language becomes easier to translate."
(BBC)Judi says: "The ‘nearly-kiss’ has become a signature body language ritual at the end of routines on Strictly and Bobby made himself the Strictly thirst-trap king last night with a thirteen second, double-dip ‘nearly kiss’ that went further than any couples have gone before. His routine was all about stylized sensuality with a hint of aggression and when he knelt and pulled Dianne towards his face with such a violent jerk it looked like their heads might collide, the angle of his head for the ‘near-kiss’ that followed meant it looked for all the world as though he’d finally decided to make a public announcement of his feelings right there in the middle of the dancefloor.
"As their heads turned we could see there was in fact a wide gap between their mouths, but Bobby’s double-dip prompted a new set of gasps from the viewer. As they rose up from the floor he performed an intense, adoring gaze at Dianne with a slightly pleading facial expression as though silently asking her permission for another go. Their foreheads touched and, to make the whole erotic-looking scene even more highly charged, Bobby’s mouth must have made close contact with his mic, meaning we got a backing track of loud heavy breathing to give it some extra edge."
