dailyrecord.co.uk:

Strictly Come Dancing judge Anton Du Beke has been warned by BBC production to 'tone down' his behaviour following a rude joke during Saturday night's live show following Layton Williams and Nikita Kuzmin's performance.The 57-year-old panellist was commenting on the pair's Samba which went down a storm with not only the judges and audience but viewers at home as the former West End star impressed on the iconic ballroom yet again.Anton was discussing one of their dance moves when he made a cheeky quip that he performed the same dance move with his co-star judge Craig Revel Horwood naked in a lift which left the audience gasping.The remark, which was made pre-watershed, on the family-friendly programme reportedly left BBC bosses forced to tell the judge to reign in his behaviour on the weekend show."Producers reminded Anton that Strictly is a family show and cheeky, subtle innuendo for the adult viewers is fine but he'd taken things a little too far," a source told The Sun.After his comments, Anton added: "The only reason I'm telling you this is because I have nothing to say about this dance — it was pretty much perfect."
