Strictly Come Dancing - Gillian Taylforth's dancing dream
Friday, 29 August 2008
Gillian Taylforth's brother had a premonition that she was invited to appear on Strictly Come Dancing.
She has explained all to MyParkmag: "In his dream I didn't win the show, but apparently didn't do too badly, so I'm hoping his premonition becomes a reality!"
"My son thinks I'll be an embarrassment but I thought it was about time I had a bit of fun doing something I enjoy. I've got my foot spa ready to look after my tired and pained feet!"
We have HUNDREDS of photos of Gillian Taylforth, Jessie Wallace and the other celebrities preparing for Strictly Come Dancing for you to enjoy in our Photo Galleries. Click here to check them out >
