Angela shows 'dance has no age limit'

Angela Rippon showed that “dance has no age limit” when she performed the foxtrot on Strictly Come Dancing on Saturday evening.

That was the verdict of the show’s head judge Shirley Ballas after Angela’s ballroom performance with partner Kai Widdrington. The couple were awarded 31 points and co-judged Craig Revel Horwood, simply described the dance as “beautiful”.

They finished fifth on the combined week one and week two leaderboard, just six points behind the leaders Layton Williams and Nikita Kuzmin.
