Speaking about seeing the ex-Emmerdale star, 39, lift the glitter ball trophy, she said: “I would be sick with nerves doing it, but I’d love to put myself through it and see what I could do.

“I saw Kelvin go through that process and it does look like the most nerve-wracking thing you could ever do to yourself, but at the end of Saturday night when you’ve achieved after all that hard work you’ve put in in the week, it was just the greatest feeling.

“Us as a family were so proud of Kelvin.”

“I’d have big shoes to fill – who could ever compete with [Kelvin’s] day one Samba?”

Speaking to Amelia Singer on her new podcast, Ameliarate Through Wine, Kelvin responded: “I’d teach you!”

Fans have already branded the show “unfair” this year after Waterloo Road actor Adam Thomas was eliminated after loosing the dance-off to Angela Rippon.

And some unhappy viewers are convinced that the panel overmarked TV star Angela, in a bid to keep her on the show for longer.

And they thing they’ve figured out the ‘real’ reason why.

Many have pointed to the link between Angela and The Blackpool Tower – the UK’s most spectacular ballroom.

The journalist and show host, 79, previously presented Come Dancing from the iconic venue which was Strictly’s predecessor.

The show was filmed in Blackpool and also aired on the BBC, but none of the contestants were celebs or professional dancers.

Viewers have been left suspicious that producers wanted Angela to get through to the next round in Blackpool because of her history with Come Dancing.
