Describe Strictly in one word?: "Joy."
How do you feel to be part of Strictly's 20th year?: "It feels amazing. It is honestly a blessing to be here. It was a dream ever since I was six years old and still feels very surreal, but I'm very grateful every year for being here. I think it's really exciting. This show has been on for 20 years, and that just shows what an amazing show it is. I mean, it's been successful for that long for a reason; it's the nation's favourite show. So, celebrating these 20 years is really special, and I feel lucky to be here for it."
