00:00Did you ever see anything during those years that made you uncomfortable?
00:07No. No. I can only speak for myself, of course.
00:10Because when we're in...
00:13The only time we're all together as a group is on the Saturdays,
00:17so the live show day.
00:20The rest of the week, you're off with your partners.
00:22For example, if you and I danced together,
00:24we'd be off in a studio rehearsing all day.
00:27It'd just be you and I and the camera crew.
00:29And so that's as much time as you have with everybody else.
00:36One day.
00:37So, you know, you can only speak about one's own experience.
00:40And I enjoyed my time as a professional dancer enormously.
00:46I had the most wonderful relationships with all my partners
00:49who I wouldn't have changed for the world, all of them.
00:54And I got the great opportunity to spend some brilliant time
00:59with some incredibly interesting and wonderful ladies
01:02who I probably wouldn't have crossed paths with in sort of normal life.
