Tufnell, Virshilas fight during training

Phil Tufnell and Katya Virshilas have revealed that they had their first fight during training for Strictly Come Dancing this week.

The duo, who will perform a Viennese Waltz on Saturday, admitted that they had clashed on Tuesday.

"Well we had a tough day today," the ex-cricketer told It Takes Two. "She threw a pen at me today, from about 20 yards."

"We had our first fight," said Virshilas. "It's tough those first two days to get on a new dance mentality. The mornings are tough for us. It's hard on him."

She added: "I really want to impress a lot of people with this Viennese Waltz because Phil's such a ballroom boy. I think he's got the best frame out of all the celebrities."

Tufnell also revealed that they plan to start arriving for rehearsals in the afternoon because they are far better at working together later in the day.
