Jonathan Ross has the time of his life as he recreates Dirty Dancing scene with Kelly Brook

Nobody puts Kelly Brook in a corner, least of all Jonathan Ross.

The pair attempted to reenact an iconic Dirty Dancing moment during a segment on the TV presenter's chat show, Friday Night With Jonathan Ross.

While the former Strictly Come Dancing star managed the maneuver with poise, Ross proved to less successful than Patrick Swayze in the original 1980s classic.

He resorted to lying on the ground to complete the lift and looked to be in rather a lot of discomfort as he put his arm muscles to the test.

Kelly is, of course, the new judge on Living TV's Dirty Dancing: The Time of Your Life which goes in search of next Johnnie and Baby.

The winners of the show, which begins on Living next week, secure a year-long contract with dance agency Bloc.

Kelly is also gearing up to take over from Gavin and Stacey star Joanna Page in the hit play Fat Pig.

It will be the West end stage debut for the 28-year-old, who split from her American actor fiancé Billy Zane earlier this year.

She will play the part of Jeannie, whose on-off relationship with a colleague, Tom, disintegrates when he falls in love with a funny, sexy rival, Helen, who happens to be plus-sized.
