The dance series returns to BBC One this Friday.
Amy Dowden’s Dare to Dance is returning for its second season this Friday, and this time some of Amy’s Strictly Come Dancing friends are joining in the fun.
In an exclusive clip from the first episode of season 2, Dowden is seen surprising the star of this week’s show, north Wales firefighter Richard, by bringing along Graziano Di Prima to rehearsals.
Dowden’s plan is to teach Richard how to perform lifts in his routine, and Di Prima is more than happy to demonstrate.
You can watch the exclusive clip for RadioTimes.com right here now.
The new season of Dare to Dance is made up of four episodes, with each instalment seeing Dowden team up with someone who has never danced before, teaching them a showstopping routine to perform as a surprise for special people in their lives.

In the first episode Dowden works with Richard, who secretly learned street dance but always hid his passion for fear he would be ridiculed.
Now, he plans to perform in front of 80 firefighters, friends and family at their annual summer party.
Di Prima won’t be the only Strictly professional on hand to help Dowden this season, with Dianne Buswell and Oti Mabuse also among those getting involved.
Amy Dowden’s Dare to Dance returns to BBC One and BBC iPlayer on Friday 1st March at 7pm.
