Exclusive for Mail on Sunday readers: Waltz along the Danube with the stars of Strictly – watch Anton du Beke and Erin Boag dance live on a brilliant eight-day cruise
It’s one of the most popular shows on TV and fans are counting down the days until the next series of Strictly Come Dancing hits our screens.
Only one professional dancer has appeared in every series so far – the charming Anton du Beke – and last year he came as close as he ever has to winning the Glitterball trophy, finishing runner-up with his celebrity partner, EastEnders actress Emma Barton.
If you have always wanted to see Anton perform live – or even meet him in person – this is your chance to join him and his long-term professional dance partner and fellow Strictly favourite Erin Boag on an exclusive eight-day Danube river cruise.
Capital idea: See the magnificent Hofburg Palace in Vienna
