Strictly Come Dancing star Nadiya Bychkova has spoken out in praise of her Christmas special dancing partner Larry Lamb.
Lamb, at 75, is the competition's oldest ever male contestant and fought back from ill health in order to take to the dancefloor.
The former EastEnders and Gavin & Stacey actor will be a part of the BBC show's Christmas edition, despite being so ill he could barely walk.
