Austin 'worried' about performing twice

Austin Healey has revealed his apprehension at performing twice on this week's Strictly Come Dancing.

The rugby player admitted that the prospect of dancing both the Paso Doble and Foxtrot on Saturday is worrying him. He said that while the Paso appeals to his aggressive nature, the Foxtrot is a "charming, slow" dance.

"I'm worried about doing two dances," he told Claudia Winkleman on It Takes Two.

Healey and dance partner Erin Boag received 35 out of 40 for their Cha Cha Cha on last week's show, but admitted that they were sure they would end up in the dance-off.

"I went into pre-match mode. I was convinced we were in the dance-off," said Healey.

Boag added: "I was petrified. I was nervous, and I knew very well that we could be in the bottom two."

The pair also congratulated Rachel Stevens and Vincent Simone on picking up the first perfect score of the series last week.

Boag said she was "very happy" for them, while Healey revealed that he "[wished] it was us".
