Strictly Come Dancing's Chris McCausland says it's 'quite draining' as he issues family update


Strictly Come Dancing star Chris McCausland has opened up about his struggles during his time on the BBC show and revealed the reason why he has been struggling

Despite the results show being broadcast on Sunday evenings, it's actually filmed right after Saturday's live performance, giving contestants like Chris a much-needed break before they dive back into rehearsals. Chris also shares a cheeky insight into his parenting style, saying: "I try to remain on the couch as much as possible and entice my daughter into a game of Uno so that I can teach her about handling defeats early in life. Despite having "a lot of fun" throughout the initial weeks, Chris opened up about the challenges they've faced, particularly with the Samba and Tango sequences, feeling those routines lacked the "wow factor", landing them near the bottom of the judges' scoreboard.
