Helen Skelton suffered a terrible wardrobe malfunction while performing at BBC's "Strictly Come Dancing" semi-finals. Skelton then went on stage to achieve her second dance performance of the show. She was dancing with Gorka Marquez, 32, a mishap happened with her wardrobe.

The dance choice was the Eurythmics hit "Here Comes The Rain", and the dance form was Argentine Tango. During Helen Skelton's dance performance in one of the dance moves, her heel got stuck in the dress. And this tore her stunning blue sparkly sequin dress. However, the dance performers in the background continued their performance, not phasing the couple's dance moves.

Helen said in the introduction that there is no chance for mistakes at the BBC Sunday night's show. The show Strictly presented also asked Helen Skelton whether her dress fitting was okay. To Tess's question, Helen laughed out loud. There was a wardrobe malfunction, and the ripped dress was dangling around her leg, which the viewers could quickly notice.
