The popular comedian Chris McCausland is facing a tough challenge as he prepares for Saturday's live episode of Strictly Come Dancing. Despite being a fan-favorite and impressing the judges week after week, Chris has been struck down with a terrible cold, causing him to joke that he's "falling apart." In a video posted to Instagram, Chris and his dance partner Dianne Buswell shared an update on their rehearsals and how they've been coping with the illness.
But this week's dance number four is not the only obstacle the 47-year-old has faced. In fact, Chris has been battling the mother of all colds, making it a true test of his determination and resilience. However, as a soldier, he's pushing through and giving his all to the dance, despite the obstacles. Even Dianne couldn't help but tease Chris about his tendency to exaggerate, recalling how he had messaged her about his cold before training, listing off all his symptoms.
Despite the challenges, Chris and Dianne have consistently received high scores from the judges, averaging an impressive 27 out of 40. And it's no surprise, as their performances have been nothing short of excellent, including a Wayne's World-inspired jive that had viewers calling them "unbelievable." However, their latest dance, a salsa, has proven to be quite difficult, with lots of lifts and tricks that have left the pair covered in bruises.
Preparation for this week's performance has been "full on" for Chris, and with his cold symptoms added to the mix, it could be the most decisive episode yet. But fans have faith in the stand-up star, with some even predicting that he will win the coveted Glitterball Trophy. And with his determination and talent, it's not hard to see why.
Don't miss Chris and Dianne's performance on Saturday's episode of Strictly Come Dancing at 6:20 pm on BBC One.
