Anita Dobson
Former EastEnders actress Anita Dobson said Strictly Come
Dancing has taken over her life, but describes the experience as 'a
complete revelation'.
The 62-year-old actress confessed she has turned
down previous offers to appear on the show, saying she was 'too
scared of being judged and making a fool of myself'.
But after deciding to face her fears and take part in the dancing
competition, Dobson said the show has proved to be the 'most
liberating experience ever'.
She told TV Times: "For me to be on television and not be afraid of
making a mistake is freeing. It's made me much more relaxed about
everything."
Dobson said her husband, Queen guitarist Brian May, has been
'shocked' at the way the show has taken over her life but is
supportive of her commitment to the show.
"I eat, sleep and drink it. It's my life. He said he's never seen me
like this," she explained.
"It's true, I don't think anything else has ever brought me such
joy. It's a complete revelation."
Dobson has also vowed to continue ballroom dancing after she leaves
the show, but says her husband won't be joining her on the dance
floor.
She said: "Brian's not a dancer, bless him… He might pick me up and
take me out for dinner afterwards but I'm going to have to find
myself someone else to dance with, I fear."
