Former Strictly dancer Brendan Cole , 48, left the show in 2017 after being part of it since its start 13 years earlier. In this weekend’s Sixty Seconds , he reflects on the Bruce Forsyth years and emphasises the importance of gelling with your dance partner. The Strictly veteran also admits amid the current storm over alleged misconduct on the show , that he didn’t always like the stars he was paired with and shares his excitement to be getting on stage with some of his fellow ex-professionals.
When do you start training for your new stage show, Legends Of The Dance Floor? We start rehearsals next month so my job at the moment is getting match-fit. I’ve been dancing my whole life, so that’s the easy bit, but you want to get that fitness level. You can go to the gym as many times as you want but, ultimately, until you’re actually dancing and working with your partner, you’re not going to know what’s hit you.
