Being a dancer on the Strictly Come Dancing tour clearly makes you work up an appetite and stars from the BBC show have heaped praise on the delicious coffee from a Newcastle café, after arriving in the city on Wednesday.
Less than two months after the dust settled on another series of the smash hit BBC show, a number of couples have made the transition from the Strictly ballroom to arenas across the country, as the live tour entertains packed audiences nationwide. This year's Strictly live tour kicked off in Birmingham on January 20 and since then has travelled to Leeds, Manchester, Nottingham and Sheffield.
And Tyneside is where the Strictly celebs and pro dancers are calling home for the next few days, as the tour takes up residence at the Utlita Arena. Ahead of night one and after a late night journey up from Sheffield on the tour bus, the Strictly stars headed out to explore Newcastle and their stroll through the city took them in the direction of Flore in Central Arcade, right in the heart of the city.
