Chris McCausland, the comedian who made history as the first blind contestant on Strictly Come Dancing in 2024, once had a bit of a tiff with his wife Patricia on TV.The couple, who live in London with their daughter Sophie, appeared on David Mitchell's Outsiders where they were asked by Alan Davies to rate their relationship happiness on a scale of 1 to 10.

Patricia responded: "I'll go for a good, solid nine and a half. And that's not to say I don't feel like it's a ten. I just feel there's always room for improvement, because we've got that winning mentality and that's why we're here." Patricia was less than pleased when she caught her hubby looking astonished at her rating, prompting him to tease: "You'd go nine and a half? " Stirring the pot further, he went on: "Nine and a half?" In a heated moment, she replied: "All right.

I know, okay, what do you want then? Go on, you tell him then. Go on, we're here to be honest, you tell him." Co-star Alan asked for his "real number" - with Chris replying cheekily: "Nine and a half." Patricia was visibly upset, and as Alan fought back giggles, he probed the pair: "Do you fight often?" Chris, cautiously trying to avoid another fiery exchange, timidly suggested to Patricia: "Can you go first?" But Patricia didn't see the humour this time and exited in a huff, exclaiming: "All right.

You know what.There you go. Yeah, see you later." Chris and Patricia met through comedy, with the stand-up revealing to Disability Horizons: "My wife used to work in TV and we met very early on in my career when she was involved in making a programme about the Edinburgh Festival.They've been a couple for 16 years, tying the knot in 2012 after Chris popping the question at a Pearl Jam gig in Hyde Park..
