Strictly Come Dancing viewers were concerned as they noticed Ellie Taylor's remark at the end of her routine.
The comedian has been partnered with Johannes Radebe on the latest season of the BBC contest. The two took to the dancefloor once again as the show returned to the iconic Blackpool ballroom.
The two earned a dancing standing ovation from the crowd with their American Smooth on the programme. However, fans following the show on Twitter were distracted when they heard Ellie repeatedly apologise to Johannes.

Lizzie said: "Why was Ellie repeatedly saying sorry to Johannes at the end of their dance then"
Moss posted: "Ok I don’t know what Elle might have had to say “Sorry” for but I really liked that. Time to get the three votes out for her again I think."
Christine commented: "Did I just hear Ellie say “I’m so sorry” to Johannes there?"
Eden tweeted : "NOOOOO THE WAY SHE WAS SAYING SORRY????????? save ellie forever"
Ellie admitted she loved the performance but said they had to change the lifts before the performance. She said: "I got a bit hurt and we had to change it which is probably why it was a bit clunkier that it should have been because it was a bit newer."
Johannes thanked Ellie for her performance and the judges awarded the comedian 31 points.
