Strictly's Shirley Ballas tells Debbie McGee to 'get on with it'
After performing the Quickstep to Let's Call The Whole Thing Off from Shall We Dance? with professional partner Giovanni Pernice, Len Goodman has revealed he'd love to see the 58-year-old win the BBC series.
"It's wonderful that there is someone older on the show who is really good," he explained. "It would be great to see her win.
"It's been a while since an older person has been really good on the show and it's always nice to see.
"Pamela Stephenson got into the final, but that was a while ago."

The former head judge went on to add to The Sun: "You know the people in their twenties who have been in a pop group or been to stage school are going to do really well.
"One of the joys of Strictly is having a surprise contender.
"Last year was a good example with Ore Oduba - he was just a sports commentator and who'd have thought he was going to be such a good dancer," Len, 73, concluded. "That's what's lovely."
Debbie was left "really embarrassed" after she accidentally revealed the results of Saturday night's show on her BBC Berkshire show yesterday morning.

Strictly Come Dancing: Reverend Richard Coles was the latest star to be eliminated
Reflecting on her performance, the magician's assistant said she was "very sad" to see the Reverend Richard Coles go home before realising her error.
She quickly tried to cover up the incident by recalling a dramatic fall he took on the show.
The Rev. Richard was the second contestant to be eliminated last night after he failed to impress the judges in the dance off against Simon Rimmer.
Strictly Come Dancing airs Saturday on BBC One at 6.45pm.
