Neil Jones hasn't directly addressed his wife Katya's drunken kiss with Strictly Come Dancing partner Seann Walsh – but viewers thought his face said it all on tonight's show (October 13).

Neil – who's also a Strictly professional – could be seen standing behind the pair as they received their scores from the judges.

They seemed delighted when Bruno Tonioli and Darcey Bussell scored them a seven, Craig Revel Horwood awarded them a six and Shirley Ballas gave them a very respectable eight.

Neil, on the other hand, had a somewhat sterner expression.

His reaction quickly went viral on Twitter. "We know Neil... We know," wrote one viewer, while another said: "Whoever placed Neil in shot of the camera deserves a BAFTA."

One person even suggested that he had a "face like thunder".

Seann and Katya performed a Charleston to 'Bills' by LunchMoney Lewis, following rumours that their routine was changed last minute.

It was reported that the couple were set to perform a sexy salsa or tango, but BBC producers apparently made them change it to avoid anything too "touchy-feely".

Elsewhere on the show a particularly unfortunate slip-up on the subtitles made Seann and Katya's first post-kiss appearance on the show even more embarassing.

Claudia Winkleman said of the pair's high scores for their Charleston: "You were so happy with that six and then you got an eight!" Unfortunately this came out as "You look so happy with that sex" on the subtitles.

Ooo err.

Strictly Come Dancing's results show airs on Sunday at 7.45pm on BBC One.
