Jonathan Ross has the time of his life as he recreates Dirty Dancing scene with Kelly Brook
Updated 14:51pm on 5 Sep 2008
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.

That's how it's done Jonathan: Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey in the 1987 original
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.
Friday Night with Jonathan Ross airs tonight on BBC1.

Did he really liquidise a mobile phone? Does he and the BBC have no idea of the dangerous heavy metals contained in the average mobile phone?
A typical quote about these: "...amongst the 10 most dangerous known to man including Cadmium, Rhodium, Palladium, Beryllium and Lead Solder..."
Yet he chose to put one in a blender and the television staff, director/producer, allowed him? Have they heard of health and safety? of environmental vandalism?
Perhaps they can tell us all how they intend to safely recycle that blend of heavy metals? and where? and how?
Behaving like Jeremy Clarkson takes some thinking through, and I say 'like' advisedly, since Mr Ross' latest foolish stunt may appear simply in your face, brash, devil may care, and all manner of things that Jeremy Clarkson is well known for, but unlike most of Jeremy's stunts, this one is seriously harmful for all of us, with no possibility of doubt, where Jeremy Clarkson tends to simply burn excess hydro carbons, pumping out extra greenhouse gas - if you agree with the greenhouse gas theories.
Heavy metal soup anyone?
Well BBC, what have you done to dispose of that mess within your lawful responsibilities?
