While the model is evidently keen to show off just how hard she's been training for the show, presenter Susanna Reid admitted she may have to practice her moves on the train because she spends so long commuting between her London home and the BBC Breakfast studios in Manchester.

And the TV host explained she had been getting some tips from her co-star Bill Turnbull, who finished in sixth place on Strictly Come Dancing in 2005.
She joked: 'We might use the train for a bit of train-ing. So as soon as I finish on Breakfast then we'll go straight into a studio and do a bit of dancing. Obviously Bill Turnbull's an expert and so he'll be giving me some training tips as well. So we'll manage it.'

Meanwhile, Hollyoaks star Ashley Taylor Dawson admitted he may have to miss the birth of his second child because it could clash with the first live show.
He said: 'I've got a baby due on the 26th, I'm full time at work. We'll work it out as we go along but I don't want to miss the first show, I know that much.
'I don't want to be worst father of the year either. I think I'd dance really quickly and get back to the birth.'
