Erin Boag has said that she is "terrified" about performing a rumba on this weekend's Strictly.

The professional dancer, who partners ex-EastEnders star Ricky Groves, claimed that it was the worse dance they could have been given at this stage in the competition.

"There was one dance, we didn't want the week before Blackpool and we got it," she told It Takes Two. "It's just something that we've got to do and do well.

"I'm trying to look at the positive sides. Ricky's an actor and he's getting better all the time. He's got some musicality, his arms are better, and his hip action - so we'll see."

When asked about his dramatic weight loss on the programme, Groves said: "It just shows you what Strictly can do. It can change lives around.

"I mean, I wasn't obese, but at the same time I was probably in need of some TLC weight loss and Strictly's done it."

Host Claudia Winkleman claimed that the actor's change in physique had made him "look like my 6-year-old wearing his dad's jacket".

Strictly continues on Saturday at 6.50pm on BBC One.
