Patrick Swayze has joined a British couple on US TV to re-enact their popular YouTube video.

James and Julia Derbyshire's clip of their wedding dance, which is based around Swayze's film Dirty Dancing, has received over 2.5 million views.

The pair were asked to appear on Oprah Winfrey's chat show to run through their routine and were surprised when the actor interrupted their act.

Swayze tapped James' shoulder, asking: "Do you mind if I step in?", before dancing Julia around the stage.

The Hollywood star then recreated a famous scene from the movie by lifting James completely above his head.
