On Thursday’s instalment of This Morning, ITV viewers saw hosts and Cat Deeley speak to stars and Dianne Buswell.
Chris, who has made history on the show after becoming the first blind contestant, has been impressing viewers and judges at home with his routines.
However, he confessed the people close to him weren’t too sure about the idea of him competing.
Admitting he was entering the unknown before joining the line-up, Ben commented: “Your wife and your daughter, I’m sure knew the show. Would they have sort of gone, ‘You know what I think you’ll be alright? or ‘Crickey, I think that is going to be a real test?'”
Chris replied: “Everyone I knew was like, ‘How are you going to do that?’. Even my daughter said to me, ‘No, daddy you’ll fall off the stage and break your leg!'”
