Helen Skelton could be within 'touching distance' of victory on Strictly Come Dancing after what fans and experts are labelling the 'ultimate revenge' move from the TV host last week.
The On The Farm star has shaken off a real crisis of confidence in the early days of the new series to deliver some tremendous performances on the Strictly dancefloor and emerge as a serious contender for the Glitterball trophy, alongside professional dance partner Gorka Marquez.
Gorka has been Helen' s biggest cheerleader since the ex Blue Peter presenter's first week 'wobble' when she ran out of rehearsals through a fire exit, staging a very public show of support for her during one of the live shows. The couple did their chances of winning the new series no harm at all last weekend when they very nearly got a perfect score for their Couple's Choice routine for Musicals Week.
