Gorka Marquez appeared mortified after he made a mistake during a coffee break with his Strictly Come Dancing partner Helen Skelton. The pair have been spending recent days preparing for week three of the competition after avoiding the first dance-off of the BBC One series last weekend.

And while the pair are clearly working hard, they still had time for a break but it turned into an embarrassing moment for Gorka.
Helen, 39, took to her Instagram Story to speak to her thousands of followers about their encounter while out grabbing a coffee.
