Chris Hollins has revealed that he has "burned five pairs of shoes" in training for a "special" jive on this weekend's Strictly Come Dancing.

The BBC Breakfast presenter, who is partnered by professional Ola Jordan, wouldn't reveal exactly what this Saturday's routine involved, but insisted that it would be "safe".

"We have got something very special planned. I can't give it away, but I've burned five pairs of shoes perfecting it," he told It Takes Two. "Think on that one!

"It's not bad. It's safe. You can try it at home. I don't need goggles for it. It's good."

Speaking to host Claudia Winkleman, he joked: "It's a very slow forward roll."

Strictly airs on Saturday at 7.15pm on BBC One.
