The Strictly Come Dancing pros appeared downcast as they were photographed outside a dance studio in London, just a day after narrowly avoiding an intruder.

The choreographers avoided cameras as they walked around the city ahead of their day of rehearsals.

Aljaz Skorjanec, Neil Jones and Nadiya Bychkova stepped out as a trio as they were spotted chatting while crossing a road.

The dancers hid behind sunglasses as they opted for casual outfits for a day of practice.

While Aljaz and Neil sported oversized t-shirts and jogging bottoms, Nadiya looked stylish in a sporty oversized white jumper and bright blue leggings

Amy Dowden and Dianne Buswell appeared more cheery as they arrived at the studios together.

Amy who is returning to the show following her treatment for breast cancer, smiled broadly as she arrived dressed in black joggers and a black cropped top.

Dianne embraced the summer warmth with a black halter neck top and red ruffle shorts which she paired with cowboy boots.

Dancers Johannes Radebe and Kai Widdrington matched in white and cream as they walked alongside one another.

Both sporting a cap and sunglasses, Johannes put on a leggy display as he flashed thigh in short cream shorts which he wore with a tight white west top.

Kai also rocked similar shorts but opted for a cream oversized t-shirt to complete his look.

These sightings came just a day after an intruder was said to have attempted to break into the dance studios.

According to an insider via The Sun: “A member of the public scaled a wall at the back of the building and security spotted them straight away and swept into action.

“The incident was dealt with very quickly and nobody came to any harm, but security always treat[s] the wellbeing of the show's talent with the utmost importance so they couldn't take any chances.”
