Staggering into the local greasy this morning to pick up my usual marmite toast (granary, naturally) and coffee, who should I find myself standing next to but Strictly Come Dancing finalist Matt Dawson.
Before I could wrestle him to the ground and demand to know why he had taken my beloved Emma Bunton’s place in Saturday’s much-anticipated final, the nice man behind the counter asked him how it was going.
“Knackered,” was his succinct reply, and to be fair, he looks like he’s been working his little cotton rugby socks off in preparation for Saturday.
The final of Strictly Come Dancing is on Saturday at 5.40pm on BBC1. Good luck to all!
