Interview With Matt & Aliona

DigitalSpy caught up with Matt & Aliona recently to talk about Strictly.

Matt enjoys getting out there and meeting viewers who also watch Countryfile: "We often train while we are on location on Monday and the ladies love it - all the farmers' wives. They always want a go and have a little dance with me doing the latest dance steps. And it's great to get out there and meet these people that are voting for me, because Strictly has such a wonderful widespread appeal and positive response from the general public."

But he's also looking forward to a rest when it's over: "We are definitely having a break after this. I don't know where, but definitely. It does take up so much time and you really have to focus on it. And the thing with Strictly is that it will absorb as much as you want to give. The more you give, the more it will give you back."
