Hereford's Chris McCausland has revealed his next performance for the Strictly dance floor, and this time, he will paying homage to his favourite football club.
The comedian, who is originally from Liverpool but studied at the Royal National College for the Blind in the mid '90s, appeared on the Strictly spin-off show, It Takes Two; tonight (October 15), to reveal his next dance.
The comedian, along with pro-dancer partner, Dianne Buswell, told host Fleur East that the duo will be dancing the Waltz to the iconic song You'll Never Walk Alone.
McCausland said that as a die-hard Liverpool fan, he hopes to do the song justice, and added that if the duo could do something that Manchester United fans would like, then they've "worked a miracle".
East quizzed the comedian about his most recent performance, which saw the pair dance bring an Australian theme to the glitzy dance floor, dancing the salsa to Down Under by Men At Work.

McCausland joked that he was "still not entirely sure what a salsa is", with Buswell adding that in terms of training, it's often "baby steps with him" and "always very last minute".
On Saturday (October 13) the pair took on an Australian-inspired salsa to Men At Work's Down Under.
Judge Shirley Ballas said that in her experience lifts had taken real eye-timing and that she could not even imagine how he had managed to do it flawlessly.
Fellow judge Anton Du Beke said Chris' salsa step was "a bit plonky", but that it was "still one of the most remarkable things" he had seen in his entire life.
And Motsi Mabuse said the dance had given her goosebumps and that it was a joy to watch.
The pair finished with a score of 30.
The 47-year-old comedian, lost his eyesight in his early 20s as a result of retinitis pigmentosa, a hereditary condition. This diagnosis prompted a career change from his previous job in web development to becoming a comedian.
He is known to television audiences for his role as Rudi in the CBeebies show Me Too, and regularly appears at comedy venues around the UK, including the Comedy Store.
