Summary

Joining us today is a woman who despite numerous bouts of bad luck and health concerns, remains as radiant and joyous as when she first burst onto our Strictly scenes: it's the lovely Amy Dowden!

She chats to us about how her spirit has been tested - but never broken - by various health concerns over the last few years. We also celebrate her incredible return to Strictly, hear about the amazing sacrifices her partner Ben has made and the dream destination at the end of her road to recovery.
