Dancers rehearse for Strictly Come Dancing UK tour

Rehearsals are under way in north London for a national tour of the hit BBC programme Strictly Come Dancing.

Contestants and professional dancers from the television series are preparing in Primrose Hill.

The stage show - which has already sold out the SSE Arena Wembley and the O2 Arena in Greenwich - replicates the television version.

BBC London's Wendy Hurrell spoke to the most recent winner winner Caroline Flack, judge Craig Revel Horwood and former contestants Alison Hammond and Simon Webbe.
