As a seasoned observer of the Strictly Come Dancing universe, I must say that it is always a delight to witness the camaraderie and determination that permeates this competition, especially among its contestants as they navigate the dance floor with grace and gusto. Wynne Evans, the opera singer, seems to embody this spirit wholeheartedly, his cheerful demeanor and unwavering passion for the art form making him a joy to watch.


On Thursday, Tasha Ghouri and Alijaz Skorjanec grabbed some coffee before they guided the Strictly celebrities into Blackpool.

The duo arrived in the town ahead of Saturday’s live performance in the iconic Blackpool Tower Ballroom. 

Previously known Love Island contestant Tasha, aged 26, seemed eager and energetic with her coffee in hand, while Jamie Borthwick and Michelle Tsiakkas opted for a relaxed vibe, enjoying fish and chips at the pier.

On last Saturday, the actor from EastEnders, who’s 30 years old, remarked that the finest aspect of Blackpool was its delicious chips. Given this, it’s not too surprising that it was his initial destination.

Tasha bundled herself against the chill in a pair of white jogging pants, an olive-green shirt, and a large, warm brown coat made of wool.

The model incorporated a pair of Uggs into her ensemble and gathered her hair into a low bun, preparing herself for a day filled with rehearsals.

The influencer’s professional partner Alijaz also beamed as he walked side by side with Tasha. 

The dancer, 34, looked very casual in a pair of grey jeans, a black jumper and a black coat. 

He finished off his look with a black cap and white trainers and looked set for training as he carried a large duffle bag in one hand. 

Additionally, Chris McCausland and Dianne Buswell could also be seen approaching the ballroom, both radiating excitement as they prepared for Saturday’s dazzling episode.

I was buzzing with excitement as I strolled side by side with my beloved, both of us clad in casual attire – he in a pair of grey pants, a vibrant green hoodie, and a khaki green jacket that matched his infectious energy.

Dianne appeared eager to dance, dressed in black leggings, cream legwarmers, and white sneakers.

She donned a brown sweater and an oversized, striped grey blazer, and slung a big, cream-colored handbag over her shoulder.

Jamie and Michelle, meanwhile, were spotted joking around on the sea front.

At the beachfront resort, the 30-year-old actor and his dance partner, aged 29, casually strolled together, enjoying some fries en route, creating a warm and affectionate ambiance.

The actor from EastEnders sported a pair of blue denim pants and a navy puffer jacket, taking a break from what would likely be grueling training sessions in the coming days.

Michelle, too, opted for casual attire, sporting a pair of jeans along with a puffy jacket layered over a simple white t-shirt.

They playfully chuckled and shared a laugh while savoring their fast food fries, and then unexpectedly started to dance for onlookers.

Wynne Evans and Katya Jones were also spotted out in Blackpool. 

52-year-old opera singer appeared cheerful as he walked beside ballerina Katya (age 35), sharing warm cups of coffee and preparing for their outing together.

Wynne’s pleasant personality shines, despite speculation that he might exit Strictly Come Dancing this week following his close call in the previous dance-off against Shayne Ward. This outcome sparked frustration among fans.

Bookmakers predict that Wynne and Katya have a high chance of being eliminated from the competition this coming Saturday, with odds at approximately 2 out of 3 (4/6).

According to Ladbrokes, it’s predicted that Wynne may compete against ex-TOWIE star Pete Wicks in a dance-off, given his odds of approximately 3 to 1. It seems quite possible that Wynne could be the contestant eliminated from the competition.

Regardless of the unfavorable circumstances, Wynne cheerfully walked through Blackpool’s streets with Katya, ready to perform an energetic Charleston dance to Carmen Suite No. 1: 5. Les Toréadors by Georges Bizet.

The star donned a cream button-up jacket which he teamed with black trousers and white trainers.

He balanced a pair of glasses atop his head and carried a large black backpack as he geared up to step on to the famous sprung dancefloor at the Blackpool Tower Ballroom.

Meanwhile, Katya wrapped up warm in a long black padded coat with a white script design.
