They’ve all had a few weeks off since the Strictly Come Dancing final, where former Holby City star, Joe McFadden walked away with the Strictly trophy of 2017.
But all good things must come to an end, and for most of the stars it was back to rehearsals to get ready for Strictly Come Dancing – The Live Tour, which starts next Friday, January 19th, and runs until February 11th.
Except rehearsals weren’t quite going to plan, especially with Gemma and dance partner Aljaž getting up to all sorts of mischief.

The pair were seen on Gemma’s Instastories mucking about in rehearsals, as they sat watching everybody else practising and giving them praise, and then the pair head off for a cheeky coffee whilst everybody else works on their routines.
In another, this time on Aljaž’s account, it showed Aljaž hanging with Giovanni Pernice, Gorka Marquez and Paralympic champion Jonnie Peacock just chilling out at lunchtime.
Gemma also posted a video with Jonnie that saw the duo sat taking about getting ready for the tour.
She said; “I’m here with Jonnie – and we’re getting ready for the tour.”
Jonnie quickly adds in, “Apparently”
Gemma continues; “Yeah we’re supposed to be rehearsing but all everybody has done so far is eat.”
To which Jonnie says, “Have they – I saw you have a banana.”
A comment which makes Gemma burst out laughing.

But it hasn’t been all mucking about.
Gemma has been busy back at the gym working out, and challenging dance partner Gorka on the machines.
Stars taking part in the tour this year include Gemma, Alexandra Burke, Susan Calman, Davood Ghadami, winner Joe McFadden, Debbie McGee and Jonnie Peacock.
Former winner Ore Oduba will be hosting the tour.
He said; “Winning Strictly was the most unforgettable experience and a dream come true. I’m so thrilled that I get to keep that dream alive and take part in the Strictly live tour once again, this time as host.”
