Kevin Clifton mocked by Sunday Brunch viewers as he admits he’s never cracked an egg

He wasn't even yolking!

| Updated:

Kevin Clifton is a fantastic dancer – something he proved in the last series of Strictly, when he won the competition alongside Stacey Dooley.

However, it turns out his skills in the kitchen don’t quite match up to his talent on the big stage.

On today’s Sunday Brunch, the 36-year-old star made a rather surprising confession about his culinary prowess.

And viewers watching at home wasted no time in mocking the Grimsby-born dancer on social media.

There must’ve been a few mouthfuls of cornflakes spat out across the country as Kevin announced that he’d never carried out one of the most basic cooking tasks.

“I’ve never cracked an egg,” he told presenters Simon Rimmer and Tim Lovejoy.

As a stunned silence descended across the studio, he added: “Now everyone’s looking at me like I’m an alien!”

Thankfully for the dancer, Simon and Tim walked him through the simple process.

But the people at home weren’t going to let that little incident pass without having their say!

One viewer wrote on Twitter: “Seeing @keviclifton crack an egg for the first time on @SundayBrunchC4 is definitely the highlight of my Sunday.”

And a third added: “@keviclifton cracks an egg for the very first time! What a rocking egg-xample to us all! Eggcellent! X”

Another said: “Kevin mate, I flipping love you but how at you 36 and not have cracked an egg yet.”

On Friday, Kevin revealed that he’s yet to hear from Strictly bosses regarding the next series of the BBC show.

Appearing on Chris Evans’ Virgin Radio programme, he said: “I’m kind of hoping to get the call to go back on Strictly. I haven’t had it yet, but that’s just how it works.”

Let’s hope they get cracking!
