Footballer David James was the most recent celebrity to be eliminated from the competition, after a dance-off with sports presenter Mike Bushell.

“Through the whole show and the experience, the one thing that has been really challenging is the fact that I was supposed to enjoy it,” he told Rylan Clarke-Neal on It Takes Two.

“And when I enjoy it, I make mistakes. And when I make mistakes, I get punished in the scoring.”

Strictly Come Dancing continues this Saturday at 6.35pm on BBC One.
