Strictly Come Dancing's Stacey Dooley wishes she'd been wearing 'lacy knickers' when she flashed her

STACEY Dooley wishes she was wearing lacy knickers when she flashed her pants on the Strictly Come Dancing final.

The documentary maker accidentally revealed her beige pants during a wardrobe malfunction as she performed the paso doble in Saturday night's show – leaving her fans questioning whether she was naked.

She admits she didn't realise the faux pas had occurred - but she wishes she was more prepared for it.

Speaking on today's This Morning, Stacey said: "It's probably no real surprise. I thought, 'They're not even fancy, they're not even lacy'.

"It's like a built-in body suit, so they're not even my own knickers.

"I didn't even realise. I was just, like [doing the steps], and after the girls from wardrobe were like, 'I'm sorry, you were showing your pants'."

Viewers couldn’t help but react to Stacey's wardrobe issue, with some joking that she wasn’t wearing any knickers because of the colour of them.

One person wrote: “In Stacey’s last dance, when she’s waving her skirt towards the end, I’m pretty sure she flashed to millions #strictly.”

While a second commented: “I just switched over to #Strictly & pretty sure Stacey just flashed EVERYTHING! Whaaat?”

And a third joked: “Stacey definitely just flashed herself to the entire nation #Strictly”

Looks like it wasn’t just me who thought Stacey forgot to put pants on but I think they are just skin coloured.... I hope 🤷🏼‍♀️🙈😂 #Strictly

I just switched over to #Strictly & pretty sure Stacey just flashed EVERYTHING! Whaaat? 🤣

Viewers watched as Stacey and dance partner Kevin Clifton came out top of a public vote after three months of competition.

Stacey, 31, beat fellow finalists Ashley Roberts, Faye Tozer and Joe Sugg to claim the glitterball trophy.

Kevin, well-loved by viewers of the show, has appeared in five Strictly finals. This was the first time he had been partnered with a winner.

Stacey was at first speechless. However, after a moment she turned to Kevin, dedicating her win to him.

She told him: "I should say something quite poignant, shouldn't I? You know how highly I think of you. I think you are the biggest gem. It's no surprise you have been in the final as many times as you have.

"It's daunting doing something you haven't done before. But he's so patient and he walks you through. You so deserve this. You so deserve this."

She later said she planned to celebrate by eating fast food then dancing all night.

The star said: “Go to McDonald's. I'm starving. I'll go back to the green room and dance until the sun comes up. Two chicken nugget meals and barbecue sauce."

Speaking after being named winner, she said: "I feel like I'm on cloud nine. Being bottom of the leaderboard just goes to show that people at home are enjoying what we are trying to do.

"It's daunting, it's daunting doing something that you are not brilliant at in front of millions of people. But you can't sit back and say no to opportunity. You have to throw yourself in."
