Twitter/YouTubeJon Snow (not that one; the newsreader) undoubtedly stole the show last night on Channel 4’s Big Fat Quiz of the Year when he cracked out his own rendition of Drake’s infamous ‘Hotline Bling’ dance.
Snow’s deadpan delivery in describing some of the year’s best chart-topping hits has been a highlight of the annual show for years now.
This time, however, the 68-year-old went one better and actually showed off his meme-worthy smooth dance moves, and it was everything we’ve ever dreamed of.

Just look at him go!
Unsurprisingly, Twitter went absolutely wild for Snow’s moves, with calls for the newsreader to bring his skills to the Strictly Come Dancing dancefloor and their New Year’s Eve party, among other things.

And Jon was quick to thank his admirers – although it doesn’t look like Strictly will be in his future, which is a big shame!
@khantaahira Ta Taahira..you are forgiving…there were some serious 'mis-steps'!

Quite frankly, if this doesn’t all lead to a dance-off between Snow and Drake (with some kind of Alfonso Ribeiro involvement) then what is the Internet even for?
