‘That’s not an all clear for Saturday yet. I have to see how I get on tomorrow and then a decision will be made on Friday.

‘So, obviously we’ll update you as we go along. But I just wanted to take this moment to say thank you for all the well wishes that I’ve received and encouragement from everybody. And I’m hopeful that I will be dancing on Saturday.’

Then, being interviewed by Janette Manrara during the BBC dance competition’s spin-off show It Takes Two, Nick went into detail about what happened on Friday.

He explained: ‘We’d had a great week learning the dance and we were doing the camera tech rehearsals where the cameras get to see how the dance works and everything.

‘Very last step of the dance I was late getting to where I should and leapt to the position and my one leg stayed still and the rest of me went through.

‘Had a bit of a collapse and realised it wasn’t in a good position. I hurt my knee basically.’

On the bright side, he added: ‘Each day gets a little bit better. On Friday, it looked pretty bad to be honest. Saturday was not so good but I got a scan and so we decided to wait until Monday so we could have a look at that.

‘Monday was a little bit stronger and today I got the see the physios and I’ve had help from all the rehab and physio’s and doctors and they have given me clearance to try and dance tomorrow to train.

‘If I train tomorrow then it might not necessarily be the end of it. We will see how I do tomorrow and that is all we can say at the moment.’

It also comes after Strictly Come Dancing: The Official Podcast was axed by the BBC.

The corporation confirmed to Ok! that the podcast, which has covered each series since 2019, would not be returning this year.

Hosted by Joe Sugg, who competed with his now girlfriend Dianne Buswell in the 2018 series, and producer Kim Winston, the podcast offered fans behind-the-scenes insight, in depth interviews and commentary on the series’ gossip. 

Of its cancellation, a BBC Spokesperson told OK!: ‘In early 2024, we made the decision to end Strictly Come Dancing: The Official Podcast. 

‘We’re very proud of the last six series and grateful to Joe Sugg, Kim Winston and all the team involved who made it a success. Fans of Strictly can still tune in to Off The Telly, our weekly TV podcast.’

The spokesperson said that Off The Telly hosts Joanna Page and Natalie Cassidy will be offering their opinions on the series instead. 

Last week’s Strictly saw singer Toyah Willcox and her professional partner Neil Jones become the second pair to be eliminated, after losing out to Paul Merson and Karen Hauer in the dance-off.

Following the judge’s decision Toyah gushed over ‘phenomenal’ Neil and declared her experience on the show ‘the best two months of my life!’.

Both couples performed their routines again, with Toyah and Neil taking to the floor with their Samba to Poor Unfortunate Souls from Little Mermaid, after scoring just 15 out 40 and landing at the bottom of Saturday’s leaderboard.

Meanwhile Paul and Karen performed their Cha Cha to The Magnificent Seven from The Magnificent Seven, which saw them initially score 19.

After both couples danced the judges delivered their verdicts with Craig Revel Horwood, Motsi Mabuse and Anton Du Beke all choosing to save Paul and Karen.
