Craig Revel Horwood in awkward row with livid TV presenter as fans criticise ‘melt down'
Strictly Come Dancing judge Craig Revel Horwood was at the centre of an awkward row after criticising a Dancing with the Stars contestant live on air in the Aussie version of the show Craig Revel Horwood was at the centre of an awkward row with a livid TV presenter on Dancing with the Stars. The Strictly Come Dancing judge, 60, is currently dishing out the cutthroat style that he has become known for as he critiques the celebrities taking part in Dancing with the Stars in Australia, he was met with some backlash after he labelled Osher Gunsberg's Tango a "right royal mess" in the most recent episode. Upon hearing the comments, the former Bachelorette Australia host fired back: "Would you like to try going down that perspex ramp in those heels, sir? You are more than welcome to show me how to do it." But typically, Craig retorted: "That is not my job." But Craig continued to criticise, as he labelled the dance 'completely erratic' and accused the TV star of 'making mistakes' everywhere. Osher, who was partnered with professional dancer Sriani Argaet, replied: "But I need you to be doing it in a tango step while the person next to you is on one foot, kicking, and you're holding their momentum against you. After you." After Craig dismissed that suggestion as something they could do 'some other time', the video went viral on social media after broadcast and fans were quick to call out the on-air 'melt down'. One viewer wrote on X: "You got a low score Osher because you argued with the judges and were arrogant. Just take the feed back and be humble," and another said: "Osher is kinda annoying stop fighting with the judges." A third viewer ranted: "WTF was that attitude from Osher? The judges are there to give you constructive criticism, you think you danced amazingly and you just didn't, mate. Check your ego bro." A fourth said: "Thank goodness Osher's out. He was voted to stay the first couple of weeks due to his popularity, but the man can't dance," and a fifth said: "Osher seems to have trouble accepting reality, he's just a bad dancer". However, another fan was more sympathetic towards the TV host and instead took issue with Craig, as they wrote: "I dont think Osher has ever said he could dance. He is giving it a go and Craig is just downright rude." Osher and Srianri received a total score of 15 for the episode, and he was eliminated from the competition at the end of the episode. Speaking out after the viral incident had taken place, Osher claimed that Craig was doing his job as the 'baddie judge' with his negative comments but insisted that he had tried 'really hard' during the show. Speaking to Yahoo Lifestyle, he added: "But at the same time, I worked my a** off and I tried really hard. I was never going to be a technically perfect person at it, but it was like, come on, man! If you're going to critique me, give it a shot yourself and let's see what happens! I thought it was pretty fun! "Don't get me wrong, his critique is not without warrant. He has fair points. I watched the show, I know he wasn't inventing it. It was just an opportunity to kind of play with that dynamic and see what would happen," he continued. Osher's exit from the show leaves KIIS network presenter Brittany Hockley, actress Felicity Ward, Olympian Harry Garside, Home & Away actor Kyle Shinning, social media influencer Mia Fevola, newsreader Michael Usher, comedian Shaun Micallef, and former AFL star Trent Cotchin all vying to be crowned champion of this year's series. On the Australian iteration of the programme, Craig judges alongside former professional Sharna Burgess, Helen Richie and Mark Wilson. Earlier this year, Craig, who sits among judges Shirley Ballas, Anton Du Beke, and Motsi Mabuse, on Strictly Come Dancing in the UK, claimed that the show's continued success was down to him as he is an original member of the panel. Craig adopted the role of Mr Nasty since the show first aired back in 2004 and by his own admission during a recent interview he enjoys playing the villain. The TV judge who prides himself on being harsh with his comments to the professional dancers and their celebrity contestants, said: "There is no other judge. I created it. They are either dead or have been sacked." He added in his interview with The Sun: "I get booed heavily but I enjoy playing the villain." Craig has been on the BBC show for 21 years.

Georgia Love and Lee Elliott in Melbourne. Picture:. Bachelorette Australia ex-couple Georgia Love and Lee Elliott's Melbourne house sold under the hammer on the weekend. An action-packed auction weekend also saw a Seaford house with a six-figure asking range unexpectedly change hands for more than $1m. Ms Love, an Australian Radio Network newsreader, and Mr Lee put their home at 63A Wickham Rd, Hampton East, on the market following their February break-up.

On Saturday, their four-bedroom property passed in on a $1.53m bid after being listed with $1.5m-$1.58m price hopes. But Hodges Sandringham director Angus Graham said that the property sold during post-auction negotiations for an undisclosed sum.

The deck has a fully-plumbed barbecue kitchen. The partially-renovated abode fetched $1,136,500. 'The reserve was $880,000 and it went off its head,' Mr O'Sughrue. 'Basically, there was 100 people in the crowd, eight bidders registered and five who actually took part.' He was 'blown away by the competitive bidding' which saw the house snapped up by a family. 'I haven't seen anything like it this quarter,' Mr O'Sughrue added, although he noted it was rare to find a four-bedroom house in that particular pocket of Seaford. 'There was nothing fancy about, we just styled it and put some curtains in it,' he said. 'It definitely exceeded my expectations and the vendors' expectations.' 4 Lexton Court, Seaford, sold for more than $1.13m. The kitchen is fitted with a freestanding 900mm Westinghouse gas cooktop and electric oven, wooden benchtops and a breakfast bar. Another property that outperformed predictions was a Victorian-era house at 47 Donald St, Prahran. Industry sources indicated the residence sold for $3.28m after being listed with $2.2m-$2.4m price hopes. However, Jellis Craig partner David Sciola said the reserve was set at $2.4m with the sales price undisclosed. Mr Sciola said the two bidders consisted of a local investor and previous tenant who was emotionally connected to the residence, with both buyers 'very motivated to secure the property'. 'It was a very competitive, out-of-the box result for a three-bedroom, one bathroom period home that was very charming and unique, and had a quirky renovation done in the '90s,' Mr Sciola said. 47 Donald St, Prahran, features an iron lace veranda and brick facade, leadlight windows and a cathedral ceiling and clerestory turret in the living area. The marble-fitted kitchen with a walk-in wardrobe and dual butler's pantry and laundry area. In Cheltenham, eight bidders were in the mix for a two-bedroom townhouse at 7 Ward St. Ray White The Bayside Group's Trevor Bowen said a crowed of more than 100 people gathered to watch the auction. The townhouse was placed on the market at the $850,000 second bid, which met the reserve. Set on 256sq m, the home sold for $1.065m, a sum $215,000 above the reserve. 'The winning bidders were a downsizing couple from Endeavour Hills, accompanied by their son on the day,' Mr Bowen said. According to PropTrack, Victoria achieved a preliminary 70.2 per cent clearance rate from 510 early auction results this week. Sign up to the Herald Sun Weekly Real Estate Update.
