Russell Grant has claimed that he has a "telepathic link" with his Strictly Come Dancing partner Flavia Cacace.

The astrologer told New that he was happy to be paired with the Italian dancer.

"It's a dream come true," he said. "I said I needed a Piscean or a Libran, as they understand me, and we have such a telepathic link. We get on like a house on fire.

"She calls me Mama Rose and I call her Gypsy because we have this stage mother-and-daughter relationship."

He added: "If I can't do it with Flav, I can't do it with anyone. I'll never be able to dance!"

Grant claimed earlier this month that he had correctly predicted the identity of his Strictly partner.

Asked if he has a problem with the glitzy outfits on the show, Grant said: "None whatsoever! Give me Vegas, give me West End, give me Broadway.

"Put it all together in one outfit for Strictly and you will see a very, very happy Aquarian."
