At the start of tonight’s show, Janette announced: “Earlier this week, Nick Knowles revealed he was injured whilst changing his car tyre and wasn’t sure if he was going to be able to dance this Saturday.
“We have an update. Nick has been back training with Luba [Mushtuk] and will be dancing the American Smooth this weekend. Yes!”
She then warned Nick: “Next time, don’t change your car tyre yourself, Nick, alright? Get some help!”
