HOLLYOAKS star Joe Tracini has certainly brightened everyone’s morning with a hilarious a Strictly video – where he managed to insult all the judges and dancers.
The 32-year-old actor, who is most well-known for his role as Dennis Savage in the Channel 4 soap from 2011 to 2014 and then again 2018, has been entertaining the nation throughout lockdown with some pretty comical dance videos.
He’s now taken it one step further and managed bag himself some time on the BBC One show’s dance floor in his iconic dance leotard.
Strictly’s official Twitter page shared the footage with all their followers to see.
They captioned the post: “#Strictly ‘dreams’ do come true. Especially if you’re dance sensation @joetracini…”
The video starts with the soap star falling asleep in front of the telly when judge Craig suddenly starts to knocking on his screen to get his attention.
Craig said to the actor: “This isn’t Zoom darling. Strictly needs serious talent like yours. Get down to the studio at once!”
Joe mumbled back to himself: “Even if I’m not dreaming, Craig Revel Horwood talking to me through the telly is still not the weird thing that’s happened to me this year…
“So yes Craig I will see you in a minute!”
The star went on to perform his very own dance categorised under “Street Commerical Panto Electric Boogaloo” to the Strictly theme tune.
His range of moves left the judges and audience in amazement and host Tess Daly asked if he could teach the viewers his routine.
He revealed many names for his moves including the “Pounded Yam,” “Claudia’s Low-hanging Fringe,” “Shirley’s Porcelain Egg,” and “Suck A Knuckle”.
The judges then went on to give their comments and head judge Shirley Ballas absolutely loved it and admitted she “I couldn’t keep my eyes off your leotard”.
Joe then took an egg from his backside and offered it to the ballroom dancer, to which she obviously refused.
Craig admitted that he hates the fact that Joe can’t be on the show every week and the actor’s sassy side definitely came out for his response.
He replied: “Thanks Craig. I don’t think you’d take people with my experience but I appreciate the sentiment.”
And with all the success from his Instagram account, the “dance sensation” even tried to tell professional dancers Dianne Buswell and Johannes Radebe how to do the “Beef Toe” correctly.
But to everyone’s disappointment, the cheeky chappy suddenly woke up in his front living room – hinting that it was all a dream.
Many Twitter users flocked to the comments section to make Joe’s dream become a reality.
EastEnders star Tamzin Out replied: “I would LOVE to see you on @bbcstrictly@joetracini.”
Hollyoaks actress Jessica Fox commented: “When does @joetracini get his own show? Soon please? @bbcstrictly@BBCOne@bbcthree@bbcpress”
Danny Mac, who played his brother on the soap, added: “@bbcstrictly and @joetraciniLOVE LOVE LOVE!!!!!!!!”
Joe first started filming funny dance videos back in March when the UK went into lockdown and has brought a smile to everyone’s face with his moves.
The actor first rose to fame in 2004 as a guest on CITV STEM show Prove It!, and then three years later landed his first TV role as Spike Bannon in Boomerang’s My Spy Family.
In 2011 Joe joined the village and portrayed his onscreen alter-ego Dennis, but after three years on the show, he decided to leave.
Joe is currently presenting CBBC’s The Dengineers, which he started in 2017.
