Describe Strictly in one word?: "Wow."
How do you feel to be part of Strictly's 20th year?: "I just feel extremely lucky and grateful. I say this pretty much every time people ask me, but I still mean it. The feeling hasn't lessened. I'm not taking it for granted. Every day, when I think about what I'm doing, I feel grateful every single second. Being part of the 20th anniversary, I want to thank those who came before us, who've allowed us to continue on this platform, make our dreams come true, and create something magical. Here's to another 20 years, yay!"
