TWO of TV’s hottest dancing stars were spotted at a Herefordshire hotel together last week. But fear not – their visit was strictly professional.
Anton Du Beke and Erin Boag from the hit BBC 1 series Strictly Come Dancing spent two days teaching guests how to move properly at Holme Lacy House Hotel.
The ballroom maestros held lessons with around 300 visitors who signed up for one of several themed events that are being held by various dancers from the show at five hotels across the country this year.
The pair also danced exclusively for those present and ran a competition which saw 10 visiting couples win through to the grand final before the winners were decided upon by Anton and Erin.
Sales manager Lorraine Stevens helped organise the event and welcomed in a range of participants.
She said: “There were people that didn’t want to dance and there were people that were champions but they were charming, they were absolutely brilliant.
They were fantastic with the guests and the guests loved them.”
