To the studios of Strictly Come Dancing, where it was time for a regular series highlight, Halloween week.

And there was no better moment than when everyone’s favourite contestant, Chris McCausland tried a Tango gag which didn’t exactly land with either the studio audience or presenter, Tess Daly.

But that was okay because the look on Daly’s face made it so much funnier.

Not going to lie, I could watch Tess’s blank reaction to not understanding Chris McCausland Fanta / Tango joke over and over again #Strictly #SCD pic.twitter.com/AhFKsaHzkY

Sheer perfection!

You can literally see Tess malfunctioning whenever anything goes off script.

Well, that might be a little bit harsh.

I had to listen three times to understand it, probably would have worked if he weren’t out of breath

Just in case you were still struggling.

‘Someone needs to dance a Fanta just to balance it out’

One of the most cringe moments I’ve seen but equally comical
