Denise Van Outen ‘itching’ to dance


Denise Van Outen is "itching" to dance again after 'Strictly Come Dancing'.
The 39-year-old TV star came second on the tenth series of the BBC One dancing competition in 2012 and she admits she and fellow runner-up Kimberley Walsh want to embrace their newfound ballroom skills after growing to love dance.
Denise said: "I realised that I loved it when I did Strictly. You can't really keep it up as you need a partner for ballroom, but Kimberly Walsh and I are itching to do something involving dance again because we loved it."
The former 'Big Breakfast' host grew incredibly close to Girls Aloud singer Kimberley, 32, through 'Strictly' and their charity hike up Mount Kilimanjaro for Comic Relief in 2009.
Denise revealed: "It was through Kili that I became so close to Kimberley Walsh and of course then we worked on 'Strictly Come Dancing' together and we just had that common bond. You realise how strong you are, because if you've climbed a mountain you feel like you can do anything."
Denise is a staunch supporter of Comic Relief and Sport Relief and thinks the public should get involved in a Sport Relief charity activity this year.
She said: "I'd say do it because it's fun and it's an experience you can do on your own or with your friends. It's just fun and it keeps you fit and active, so why not?"
Sport Relief 2014 takes place on March 21-23.

Martine McCutcheon would have returned to EastEnders


Martine McCutcheon admits she would have returned to 'EastEnders' had her character not been killed off.
The former soap star claims she would have made a Walford comeback as Tiffany Mitchell had producers let her live, but it's a "blessing" that the character met her demise as she has been able to explore her other passions.
Martine - who scored a number one single with 'Perfect Moment' after leaving 'EastEnders' - said: "When I left I felt really exposed, so I do look back and go, 'Oh, why did they kill Tiffany off?' I felt so blessed to play such an amazing part and it wasn't my decision for it to end.
"I think I probably would have gone back. I would have panicked. I think the fact that I was thrown out there to sink or swim was actually a blessing, because I would never have got to work with the people that I worked with, or won an Olivier or had a number one or any of that.
"I would never have had those dreams come true, I would have been ticking along still playing Tiffany and never knowing about that whole world out there."
The 37-year-old star - who played Tiffany from 1995 to 1998 - says 'EastEnders' was the hardest job she's ever had but she enjoyed the camaraderie with the cast and crew.
She added to Digital Spy: "It was an unbelievably hard schedule; we were doing 22 scenes a day. It was the best training I ever had, and it is the most fun job because you do have your own little family there."

Mary Berry named Oldie of the Year


Mary Berry has been named Oldie of the Year.
'The Great British Bake Off' judge won the prestigious title at the annual Oldie of the Year Awards hosted by Oldie magazine in London yesterday (04.02.14).
Mary, 78, has become a national treasure since appearing alongside Paul Hollywood on BBC Two's hit baking competition, which reached highs of nine million viewers for its fourth series last year.
The baking goddess follows in the footsteps of Sir David Attenborough and 'Absolutely Fabulous' star Joanna Lumley, who have both received the Oldie of the Year accolade in the past.
Despite being in her seventies, it appears Mary hasn't lost her youthful nature as 'Bake Off' hosts Mel Giedroyc and Sue Perkins revealed last year that she went clubbing in Ibiza at the age of 71.
Sue said: "I was saying to her, 'I'm going to Ibiza this summer, I've never been.' She said to me, 'Oh I went to Ibiza, darling. I went to somewhere called Pacha.' Mary was 71!
"She said, 'I saw some very interesting things. Took a couple of girlfriends there, some very interesting things happened.' "
Mary and the 'Bake Off' gang will return for a new series of the show later this year, which will now air on BBC One.
