Strictly Come Dancing star Karen Hauer was forced to appear on Strictly's It Takes Two without her dance partner Paul Merson as he was on "dad duties".
The football star was scheduled to make an appearance on the spin-off show alongside his dance partner Karen on Wednesday night. But instead, Paul appeared via video link to discuss his upcoming dance and last week's performance.
Explaining why Paul wasn't in the studio, presenter Janette Manrara said: "Paul you're on dad duties this evening. So you can't be in the studio this evening, that comes first."
She then went straight into this discussion regarding Paul's last dance.
