Ruth Langsford is having nightmares about Strictly Come Dancing

Ruth Langsford revealed she is having nightmares ahead of ‘Strictly Come Dancing’.
The 57-year-old ‘This Morning’ presenter is set to go head-to-head with a number of celebrities in the new series of the BBC One ballroom and latin show but despite being excited she also said she is suffering from "anxiety dreams."
Speaking on the brunchtime show on Monday (21.08.17), Ruth said: "I have been having anxiety dreams. I have been very, very excited haven’t it?
"Excited, excited, excited, and then yesterday morning I just had a moment, I woke up really early and all I thought was ‘I am not ready, I should have lost weight, I should have been having dancing lessons, I can’t do this’."
On the same day, ‘Good Morning Britain’ presenter Charlotte Hawkins was also revealed to be taking part in the show and Rylan Clark-Neal joked that Ruth would be "given" to ‘Loose Women’ "full-time" if she lost to Charlotte.
He said: "This is now ‘This Morning’ vs. ‘Good Morning Britain’.
"If you let us down we are going to give you to ‘Loose Women’ full time, your job is on the line."
Although she’s looking forward to learning the choreography, she’s nervous about who she’ll be paired with and whether the professional will be able to pick her up.
Speaking on the brunch time programme previously, Ruth said: "The reveal show is the first time [she will meet her professional partner], I thought ‘oh come on, I bet they tell you’, but the reveal show is the first time. I do worry about who will have to lift me up. It is hard work, you have to put the work in."
And that’s not the only concern the TV star has as she’s not sure she’ll be able to remember the routines as well as her fellow competitors because they’re so fast.
She added: "That’s my worry, remembering, because some of it is so fast."
