Max George turned the air blue on Saturdayā€™s Strictly Come Dancing, after casually dropping the F-bomb live on air.

The former Wanted singer got a little carried away after he finished performing his American Smooth with partner Dianne Buswell on the BBC ballroom show.

Max could be heard shouting ā€œfucking get inā€ as he celebrated completing the routine, prompting an apology from host Claudia Winkleman.

ā€œWe would like to apologise for some language earlier that involved Max,ā€ she said.

ā€œI donā€™t know the details, I donā€™t know if you heard, if you did, we are deeply sorry.

ā€œEven if you didnā€™t hear, weā€™re sorry on every level.ā€

Max later took to social media to issue his own apology as well, insisting he ā€œgot a little bit lost in the momentā€.

He tweeted: ā€œHope you enjoyed the dance guys!!!! I may have got a little bit lost in the moment and said a bad word.

ā€œApologies if that was the case! Much love!!!ā€

One person who did not enjoy Max and Dianneā€™s dance, however, was judge Craig Revel Horwood.

He said he was ā€œdisappointedā€ in their effort, adding: ā€œYou lack any sense of style, actually, of flair, that this particular dance needs.

ā€œYour arms are extremely haphazard, your hands are like spatulas on the end of them, darling.ā€

The pairā€™s performance earned them 20 points and placed them second from bottom in the leaderboard.

Clara Amfo and Aljaz Skorjanec topped this weekā€™s leaderboard with 29 points out of a possible 30 for their Charleston.
