A young mum and a clothing shop manager have made it through to the next stage of BBC One's Strictly Dance Fever competition.

Casey Morris, 25, from Horsham, and her dance partner Toby Beal are among the final eight couples still left in the contest.

For the next two months they must learn a new dance every week and each Saturday one couple will be voted off the show. The last remaining couple wins £50,000.

Mother-of-two Casey grew up on a farm in Shipley, West Sussex, and has been dancing since she was three.

Now a full-time mum and housewife, she teaches dance to schoolchildren at her village hall.

She and Toby survived elimination last week with a hustle number to a backing track of Heaven Must Be Missing An Angel.

Nathan Potter, from Eastbourne, and his dance partner Kristy Cullen, also won a place in the next round with their Argentine tango to a backing track of Last Tango in Paris.

The 26-year-old manager of Hastings' Bay Trading clothes shop grew up in a mining village in Warwickshire and now teaches dance at the Stagecoach club in Ocklynge School in Eastbourne.

Half of the remaining couples are learning the lambada and the others are practising the Charleston.

Strictly Dance Fever is on BBC One this Saturday at 5.55pm, with the results at 9.25pm.
