Strictly Come Dancing viewers reckon they need a "cold shower" after spotting some serious chemistry between Zara McDermott and Graziano Di Prima.
The pair's performance on Sunday's show earned Zara her highest score yet in the 2023 series, much to the delight of the Love Island star's fanbase. Fans were quick to hail the couple online, with many taking to social media to praise their showstopping appearance. "Zara and Graziano look gorgeous, they look like they should be in an Agatha Christie movie," one person said, while another quipped: "Zara looks stunning. Graziano had a packet of cheese and onion crisps to make sure his breath was perfect for this dance."

"ZARA AND GRAZIANO!!!! This MEANS SOMETHING TO ME!!!!" one person wrote, while another observed: "There seems to be raw animal attraction between Zara and Graziano." One cheeky commenter even requested a "cold shower, please," after the couple's "stunning choreography" left them a little hot and bothered.
A number of viewers also commended the couple's technique on the dance floor, with one person writing: "Lovely Viennese Waltz from Zara and Graziano, loved the music too." Another praised the two for their improvement after last week, when they landed in the bottom along with Nikita Kanda and Gorka Marquez.
"Zara & graziano have come back SO strongly, that was beautiful," they wrote, echoing another kind rating which said, "I give Zara and Graziano a 6. A lovely attempt at what is a difficult dance. Great characterisation, and developing musicality."

This constructive feedback was echoed by a number of other comments, one of which read: "Her body seemed to be willing and could hold some great positions with her legs and back but in hold she looked too stiff. Graziano looked amazing too! A nice dance." "Your top line is hit and miss, and your footwork a little choppy, but it was mostly lovely!" another balanced critic said.
Other viewers were fixated on the fashion, with person writing, "Her dress stole the show omg but I love Zara and Graziano together, really cute partnership and beautiful choreography."
