Strictly Come Dancing is back, and among this year’s star-studded you’ll find Angela Scanlon, one of the 15 celebrities pointing their toes and shaking their hips on the 21st series of BBC’s long-running dance competition.
Born in County Meath, Ireland, to a father who worked in construction and mother who worked in administration, Scanlon, 39, began her career as a journalist specialising in fashion.
