STRICTLY Come Dancing judge Craig Revel Horwood has given visually impaired contestant Chris McCausland a three-word seal of approval, amid mounting speculation that he could be this year’s winner.
The comedian who is partnered with Dianne Buswell performed a jaunty jive routine to the theme song from the film Wayne’s World for movie week and typically stern judge Craig Revel Horwood was visibly impressed.

Dressed as Jack Sparrow from Pirates of the Caribbean, Craig gave him the ultimate three words of praise on last night’s show. He said: “You’re a dancer,” he also said that the dance was ‘packed with fantastic rhythm, before handing out the generous score of 7.
Meanwhile social was alight with support for Chris after his energetic performance.
One said: “”Blimey, who swapped @CraigRevHorwood for a human this week? @chrismccausland #strictly.”
A second expressed: “Chris McCausland and Dianne Buswell are the partnership we never knew we needed; they absolutely fill my heart with joy! #Strictly” Another comment read: “Chris McCausland and Dianne Buswell for the win #Strictly Iconic.”
A further fan enthused: “Every week @chrismccausland and @dbuzz6589 just seem to get better and better! Just incredible #Strictly.”, reports the Mirror.
And yet another tweet praised: “I had to watch #Chris again so bloody joyful he’s amazing! @chrismccausland #Strictly.”
The 47-year-old comedian is the first blind contestant ever to appear on the BBC reality show. But it’s not the first series to benefit form his comedy talents, – having signed up to David Mitchell’s Outsiders in the past.
He starred alongside stars such as Judi Love and Alan Davies also taking part.
This year’s Strictly Come Dancing series is particularly special as it celebrates its 20th anniversary, coming off the back of a challenging period marked by controversy.
Last year, contestant Amanda Abbingdon departed early, following complaints about her treatment behind the scenes.
Last week the results of the investigation were revealed, which upheld claims of verbal bullying and harassment, but confirmed that there was no physical aggression involved.
