Strictly Come Dancing judge Craig Revel Horwood blasted by parents for ‘turning the air blue’ and making seedy jokes in front of children on star-studded tour
The cheeky judge piled on the filthy gags during the penultimate performance of the live show in London
CRAIG Revel-Horwood turned the air blue during a matinee performance of the Strictly Come Dancing tour show this week with a string of X-rated jokes.
The flamboyant judge, 52, made the series of inappropriate gags in front an audience of young children—leaving parents fuming.
Craig joked about “getting his leg over”, and told dancer Kevin Clifton he wouldn’t mind “whipping his crack”.
In another seedy rant he asked a female audience member for her number and told the audience of 10,000 people: “I’m single and quite frankly I’d do anything!”
One parent said: “Craig’s jokes weren’t appropriate for an audience full of children, it was really rather filthy.
“It’s a family show and Craig should have known better.”
Craig split from boyfriend Damon Scott after three years together in May.
Damon told the Sun on Sunday that ex-boyfriend Craig’s life revolved around booze while they lived together.
He revealed: “Craig is like Jekyll and Hyde when drink is involved — and drink is always involved.
“His life revolves around it. First it’ll be the Veuve Clicquot champagne, then Cloudy Bay Sauvignon Blanc, then — when he’s drunk — vodka with Diet Coke.
“We could get through a bottle and a half of vodka between us in a night. At times that was a daily thing. If I drank that much now I’d be hospitalised.”

In September last year The Sun’s Bizarre column revealed how Craig had been left “homeless” and living out of hotels for five months.
His Hampshire country pile had been left damaged after a massive flood and his London residence was occupied by two of the Strictly Come Dancing professionals.
In an exclusive interview, Craig revealed: “There was a huge flood. Internal pipes from the underfloor heating burst and the water damaged the entire kitchen, conservatory, utility room and cellar. Everything had to be gutted.
“I had just put in a new kitchen and all of that had to go. The whole lot had to go so it will be all brand new.”
A rep for Craig has been contacted for comment.
