Strictly Come Dancing legend Arlene Phillips has surprised customers of a food delivery service - by teaching staff to dance to the Morecambe and Wise classic "Bring Me Sunshine" as they carried out orders.The former judge of the BBC talent show teamed up with Wiltshire Farm Foods to give ten delivery drivers pointers on how to "cha-cha-cha" as they distributed meals to delighted recipients.Staff members were treated to a dance lesson with Arlene before delivering meals, as part of the brand's "bringing sunshine" initiative, to help bring joy to its customers during the cold winter months.It comes after a study of 2,000 adults, also commissioned by Wiltshire Farm Foods, found a third of over 65s haven’t had a meaningful interaction in more than four weeks.Dame Arlene Phillips said: "It is absolutely shocking how many people don’t have any communication with another human being for weeks on end."Loneliness is a real blight on society and is something most, if not all of us, suffer from time-to-time."So, when I got the chance to bring a little sunshine back into peoples’ lives with a good old song and dance routine, I jumped at the opportunity."And the drivers did really well - 10s all round from me."Loughborough-based delivery driver Paul Wells said: "I’m not normally much of a dancer but I am fan of Strictly, so thought I would give it ago."To get dancing tips from Arlene Phillips was amazing and I thought I did okay.
