Describe Strictly in one word?: "Magical."
How do you feel to be part of Strictly's 20th year?: "It feels really surreal. I'll never forget watching at home the first year when Natasha Kaplinsky won. I'd never seen anything like it before on TV. At the time I was dancing and going to Blackpool regularly but to see it on TV was special so to be part of the anniversary feels surreal. I think it's going to be a real celebration of a series."
