Strictly Come Dancing fans have been left in tears after Chris McCausland's "wonderful" week two performance.

He and his professional dance partner Dianne Buswell performed the Foxtrot to Be Young, Be Foolish, Be Happy by The Tams.

This comes after fans of the BBC show called for Paul Merson to be eliminated after some of the "worst dancing" ever seen on the programme.

One viewer said: "Some of the worst dancing I've ever seen and I absolutely loved every minute."

Another joked: "Can we all agree Paul needs to go home."
