Strictly Come Dancing host, Terss Daly, had some words of praise for former Spice Girl Emma Bunton and also her co-host Brucedy Bruce Forsythe.

“Emma Bunton is the sweetest girl,” Tess told Celebs on Sunday. “She’s going to look gorgeous in her frocks. During her Spice Girls days there was an awful lot of finger-pointing but no footwork. Time will tell if she can dance but she’s definitely going to look the part.”
