Nick Knowles, famous for hosting DIY SOS, recently shared his concerns about his future on Strictly Come Dancing following two injuries he sustained after the first live show. He injured himself after the launch show and then again during rehearsals last week, putting his participation in jeopardy for Movie Week. Speaking on It Takes Two with host Janette Manrara and dance partner Luba Mushtuk, Nick expressed uncertainty about his ability to perform over the weekend. Despite the setbacks, he mentioned that each day he is feeling slightly better, with the support of physiotherapists and doctors giving him the go-ahead to try dancing in training the next day.
Luba revealed that they had received clearance to rehearse the following day, but they would proceed cautiously to determine what they could and couldn’t do. Nick admitted to feeling frustrated by the situation and if they are able to dance, they plan to perform the Charleston routine inspired by Paddington Bear that they had prepared for the previous week. The final decision on his participation will depend on how well he does in training the next day before they proceed with the performance.
It’s been a challenging time for Nick, but he remains hopeful and determined to give it his best shot if he is physically able to dance on the weekend. Fans will have to wait and see how things unfold as the week progresses, with updates expected on Friday regarding his final clearance for Saturday’s show. Stay tuned to see if Nick Knowles will be able to overcome his injuries and continue his journey on Strictly Come Dancing.
