Hollins 'in panic about latest Strictly'

Chris Hollins has said that he is "in panic" about his latest routine on Strictly Come Dancing.

The BBC Breakfast presenter revealed that he will be performing a cha cha cha on Saturday's show, but admitted that he is worried about his slow progress on the dance.

"Someone must have taken my brain out at the start of the week, because we are in panic situations again," he told It Takes Two. "Christopher Hollins is taking a long time to learn the steps, so you may see more trout pout, sucking lemons or 'with a migraine' face as I try and remember my steps."

Hollins, who is partnered by Ola Jordan, added: "Yesterday was so bad. You know when you speak to a dog and say, 'sit down Rover', and all it hears is, 'Rover, blah blah blah'. Well that was like me. All I could hear was, 'Chris, blah blah blah'."

Speaking about his future in the competition, he said: "We don't train for 25 hours a week for the fun of it. I am not ready to give in just yet. I'm really loving it."

Strictly continues on Saturday at 6.50pm on BBC One.
