GMB: Bobby Brazier talks to show from car
Strictly Come Dancing fans believe Bobby Brazier will not be part of the upcoming tour following their appearance on the spin-off show It Takes Two.
Bobby and his professional partner Dianne Buswell were invited onto Thursday's It Takes Two to be interviewed by host Janette Manrara.
Janette asked Bobby how much he enjoyed last weekend's American Smooth, with the EastEnders star admitting he was proud of himself.
Dianne added: "I really want to keep pushing him and there are bits in there which are really quite hard to do!"
Janette then focused on how judge Craig Revel Horwood criticised Bobby's hand placement during his routines.

"You were the last couple to be saved in the dance-off, what was it like knowing Blackpool was around the corner?" Janette also noted.
The pair admitted they panicked as they thought they might be sent home, and Bobby added: "I would have been gutted [to go]."
Nigel Harman and Katya Jones also appeared on It Takes Two, but viewers noted how Janette only seemed to highlight the positives for them.

Speaking about her Couple's Choice from last weekend, Katya exclaimed: "I loved everything about it - I loved the style of it, the way [Nigel] danced. And that is not my style really as I am a Latin ballroom dancer."
Following the show, viewers took to Twitter to note how Bobby and Nigel's interviews differed. Tony penned: "Bobby's interview focuses on the negative of Bobby's last dance.
"Nigel's interview only focuses on the positive of his dance, with no mention of criticism... lol these producers and their storylines #ittakestwo."
Another wrote: "See how they've put Bobby first and are focusing on the negatives of his dance in the intro. If ever the producers have tried to put a contestant over the trap door it's here.... #ittakestwo. "Watch them hype Nigel up now. Guess which one is doing the tour... #strictly."
Drew said: "Ah, so it's Nigel doing West End dance moves from Guys and Dolls that he could already do before the competition even started, is it? #ittakestwo. I'm sure one of the #Strictly judges will mention it.....not." (sic)
However, a fourth wrote: "I haven't a clue who is Jeff Brazier (my age I suppose) but watching his son Bobby move through the dancing ranks has been a pleasure. What a great attitude his dad has too. I do hope Bobby stays in the competition towards the final."
Strictly Come Dancing's It Takes Two airs on weeknights at 6.30pm on BBC Two.
