'Still now, to this day, I take the kids to Blackpool and we play the penny slots'
Helen Skelton has spoken of her delight at reaching the Strictly Come Dancing 'milestone' ahead of performing in Blackpool this weekend.
Helen, who visited Blackpool for a long weekend each year as a child, says making it this far in the competition is a 'big milestone' for her. The former Blue Peter star said: "I think Blackpool has always been a milestone. I’m from the North West, so all of my family, every year my family went to Blackpool for a long weekend for the illuminations… so I think, for me, this was always like a big milestone."
