BBC Strictly’s Hamza doesn’t think he can dance despite being favourite to win

Strictly Come Dancing finalist Hamza Yassin still doesn't think that he can dance, despite being a favourite to win the BBC show this weekend. The wildlife cameraman has been discussing how life has changed for him since he started dancing. Read here to see who else is in the final with him.

“I thought week one, I’d be going. I didn’t think I could dance. I still don’t think I can dance,” he said, talking with professional dance partner Jowita Przystal on Strictly: It Takes Two. Hamza added: "I’ve lost nearly 13 kilos. I’m seeing body parts being defined. I feel so much happier, fitter and healthier. I hope I can keep it going.

“I’ve lost four or five inches across my waist. This suit was tailor-made at the beginning and now I’m wearing a belt to tighten it. It’s just an amazing feeling. Dancing is incredible – there’s no need to go running,” he stressed. Despite gaining confidence from his new figure, Hamza still isn't sure on his ability to dance.
