Hugh Grant dreaded Love Actually dance scene

HUGH GRANT has admitted that he ‘hated’ having to do that dance in Love Actually.

You may recall the recurrent Richard Curtis collaborator pulled out some pretty special dad dancing in the 2003 original, famously strutting his stuff down the stairs of Number 10 Downing Street.

But for Red Nose Day this year he had to reprise the role — and now he has admitted he wasn’t too happy about it.

Speaking on US breakfast show Today ahead of a screening of the sequel for America’s Red Nose Day, Hugh revealed: ‘I dreaded that dancing scene in Love Actually more than words can say.

‘And to do it again, 14 years later… Different tune, more dancing, with a slightly different spin… That’s what we’re doing now, that’s why I’m grumpy, because I’m hating it.’
