STRICTLY COME DANCING fans are starting to look forward to the quarter finals next weekend, but first the celebrities and their professional partners have to survive their live performances on Saturday.
Strictly Come Dancing fans are getting excited for the quarter finals next weekend
Ahead of the daunting challenge of competing to make it through to the quarter finals, comedian Susan Calman, 43, has tweeted a passionate message about her time on the much-loved BBC dance programme.
Susan paid tribute to her partner Kevin Clifton, 35, with whom she has struck up a close friendship since being paired together on the launch show back in September.
"Another day of training awaits," she told her 148,000 followers earlier today. "Next week is the quarter finals of Strictly which is rather remarkable.
"But whatever happens at the weekend I just want to do the best American Smooth I can with my dance boyfriend," Susan continued, adding: "Because I'm loving every minute."

Meanwhile, some of her fellow Strictly Come Dancing contestants are rumoured to have found more than friendship with their co-stars.
Fans have speculated about whether former Saturdays singer Mollie King, 30, and her partner AJ Pritchard, 23, have found romance behind-the-scenes.
Mollie awkwardly dodged questions about her relationship with AJ on Lorraine last week as the pair giggled as the host quizzed them.
Genma Atkinson addressed rumours of her romance with Gorka Marquez last week
Former Emmerdale actress Gemma Atkinson, 33, is also rumoured to be dating Alexandra Burke's dance partner Gorka Marquez, 27.
Gemma addressed the reports last week, revealing that she won't be getting involved with anyone romantically until the show is over.
"I'm focussed on my dancing," she told The Sun. "Maybe once the series is over, but not right now."
Strictly Come Dancing continues Saturday at 6.50pm on BBC One.
