Alex Scott: ‘Dreading it’ Strictly star speaks out on ‘curse’ fears with pro Neil Jones

“When you tell people you’re doing the samba, straight away it’s ‘difficult’ it’s ‘technical’, it’s ‘the dance of death.’”

“I’m just like: ‘Do you know what? We’re in the quarter final!’ I could absorb everyone’s fear about the dance and come in dreading it every day – or be like, ‘do you know what? We’re in the quarter final and we’re having such a good time’”, she continued.

Alex added: “Every dance for me is difficult. There’s no dance that has been easy. So it’s just like every other week.

“I come in on a Monday, I’m starting from scratch, I don’t know any technical elements. For me it’s just having fun with it.”
