Brendan Cole and Claire King have been ordered to tone down their Strictly Come Dancing performance this week.

The pair were thrilled after coming up with a sexy salsa routine for tonight's show but faced disappointment when producers decided that they had gone too far.

A source told the Daily Star: "Claire and Brendan's routine was just sizzling with sexual tension. The judges would have been amazed by the performance. But we thought it was too over-the top.

"If it had been after the 9pm watershed they might have got away with it. But it was too near-the-knuckle so they're having to re-do the routine."
