Strictly Come Dancing star Catherine Tyldesley has confessed she's beginning to struggle in week two rehearsals as she's finding it too difficult to perform in heels.
The hit BBC One show returned to TV on Saturday with the celebrities and their partners performing their routines for the first time.
They're currently in rehearsals for week two, and Coronation Street star Catherine has admitted she's feeling the pressure.
She shared a series of videos to her Instagram story on Wednesday evening with her dance partner Johannes Radebe.
The soap star films herself looking at the camera beside Johannes and he says "it's Wednesday," as she repeats his words.
The pair look tired as they pull faces, but Johannes continues: "And we're doing the samba on Saturday."
Catherine then winces and covers her mouth followed by a loud squeal, as Johannes shakes his head in the background with his arms crossed.
The 36-year-old actress now has just two days to perfect their samba routine for Saturday night's show, but admits she is struggling to do so in a pair of heels.
Worried Catherine tells the professional to not shake his head, before quizzing him "am I doing okay?"
An anxious Catherine then questioned: "When I'm in socks are we doing okay?"
Johannes replied: "Yeah. It's when those heels come on. Can we just dance with socks? She gets through it with the socks."
And Catherine confessed that she's "like a pro in socks", while Johannes joked about the heels: "Mama doesn't go anywhere - nothing shakes, nothing moves for anybody."
The 32-year-old dancer shook his head again while laughing at the camera, as the Mancunian babe revealed: "If all else fails I'm just gonna do a shimmy."
Later that night, Catherine shared a picture of the two laughing and messing around during rehearsals which was captioned: "If I could stop laughing we might actually get somewhere. #nervoushystericals"
Catherine and Johannes aren't the only couple who have faced a struggle.
Anneka Rice has revealed that she’s been overcome with emotion during rehearsals as she and partner Kevin Clifton practiced their Waltz, while James Cracknell is concerned that his gruelling schedule may trigger an epileptic fit.
