Chris McCausland has revealed what 'upset him' during training for the Strictly Come Dancing final alongside Dianne Buswell as more details about what fans can expect were revealed.

Last weekend, the comedian and the professional dancer were seen competing in the semi-final of the BBC One dance contest. Like their fellow semi-finalists, the pair performed two dances each in a bid to make it through to the last week of the 2024 run of the competition.

Chris and Dianne kicked off their fight to be in the final by performing a Charleston to When You’re Smiling by The Blue Vipers Of Brooklyn which was awarded 33 points out of a possible 40 by the judges.
