Ten famous faces – five men and five women – are taking part in the new series of The Real Dirty Dancing.
They will all aim to learn the moves from the iconic 80s movie starring Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey.
During the latest instalment, the contestants were put into ‘Johnny and Baby’ pairs – and Arg was desperate to be partnered with ex Blue Peter presenter Anthea.
His desire was heightened after dancing with her in the opening episode.
“She is like a fine wine,” Arg gushed. “She looks even better than when I was a kid.
“When was dancing with her, that was my dream come true.”

Lee – who had previously been picked by presenters Keith Lemon, Ashley Roberts and choreographer Jordan Darrell as the best male dancer – also had his sights set on Anthea.
But sadly for both him and Arg, she was paired with comedian Darren Harriott.
Arg admitted he was “jealous” but said he was “convinced” Anthea would return to him as the series continues.
