Nicola Roberts has opened up about her experience on Strictly Come Dancing days before viewers are set to see her efforts in a festive edition of the BBC show.
The Girls Aloud star has been partnered with pro Giovanni Pernice and will take to the dancefloor for this year's Strictly Christmas special, which is set to air on Christmas Day. EastEnders icon Larry Lamb, CBeebies presenter George Webster, Coronation Street actress Alexandra Mardell, DJ Rickie Haywood-Williams, and Tyneside's own Rosie Ramsey will also be putting their dance shoes on for the yuletide special.
Nicola's former bandmates Cheryl, Kimberley Walsh and Nadine Coyle reunited to cheer Nicola on from the audience when the special was filmed earlier this month. And while the 37-year-old singer said that she had had a "great time" dancing, she admitted that she had struggled to perfect her routine.
