  • Amy M (and see Katharine’s similar Q below)

    Hi Anton! 💗 Really enjoyed the Fit at 50 sessions during lockdown and my question is relating to fitness and health; what tips do you have for boosting energy during the day? I feel lethargic a lot of time and wondered if any foods/drinks might help this? Thank you. ❤

  • Katharine

    Best tips for keeping fit after 50? I turned 50 in January!

  • Lauren P

    Is there a specific tour that you’ve done with Erin that stands out as being one of your favourites? I’ve seen the last 7 tours and think they just get better and better every year!
    P.S. great news that you’re back for this year’s Strictly series (not that I ever had a single doubt, of course!)

  • George

    Hi Anton, Two questions please:
    1: what is a Jitter Bug and please can you show us all a quick sample?
    2: what do you think would a be good dance to dance on the moon (about 1/6 of earths gravity)?

  • Benita

    My question is: Are any of the characters in your books based on people you know?

  • Amy W (and see Agata’s similar Q below)

    I love your books and think they would make a fantastic tv series. If you could choose anyone to play your lead characters who would you pick?

  • Agata (Poland)

    Hi Anton! Here is my question: if your books were to be made into a film or a tv series (and I really hope they will be!) who would you like to see play the parts of Raymond, Helene and Nancy? Lots of love, Agata Moroz xx

  • Lola

    Do you have a follow up planned for A Christmas to Remember?

  • Julie (Big Blue Blackpool reservations manager)

    Hi Anton, any tips for me as I have finally said yes to taking my ballroom teachers exam. Also what’s the picture behind you on Tuesday American Smooth please? Love Julie xx

  • Ellen

    If you could duet with any singer who would it be and why? Whats the beat piece of advice you can give someone like me who wants to be a performer?  Lots of love to you anton

  • Victoria D

    What was your favourite dance on Strictly?
    Who was your favourite dance partner on Strictly?

  • Maisie (and see Pascale’s similar Q below)

    Hi Anton. It’s Maisie.  Did you enjoy being a judge on Strictly? You were brill.
    Miss you lots and see you next year for my hug

  • Pascale

    Are you happy to be dancing on Strictly again this year or would you rather be a judge? I love to see you dance but you’re brilliant as a judge too and at least you’d stay for the whole 3 months, so I’m not sure which I’d prefer!

  • Lynn (and see Roy & Barb’s similar Q below)

    What was Brucie like to work with and what is your favourite memory with him?

  • Roy & Barbara

    Anton – we know that Sir Brucie was your Hero, but which of these activities did you enjoy the most: Singing & dancing with him, or, playing Golf with him? PS: Hope you have a marvellous Birthday weekend with those lovely twins xx

  • Jenni

    What was the first dance you learnt when you started dancing?

  • Lin Dew

    Hi Anton! What is the hardest step you’ve had to learn? Lin x

  • Jacki

    When ballroom dancing first began how did a lady know which way her leading man would travel across the floor, etc, especially if they had never danced together before? Thank you

  • Rebecca

    Do you believe you can be any shape or size and dance well? Also, where is this hoodie you own as mentioned earlier this week!

  • Clare

    If you could star in any musical, which one would you choose?

  • Katie

    Global health has been brought into the spotlight in the last year. If you had the power to eradicate just 1 disease from the face of the earth, what would it be?

  • Gillian

    How much input do you guys get into the choreography of the group and musical guest dances – there were some crackers last year and I especially loved the number you did with Dianne.

    Congratulations on the confirmation this week that you’re back for another series of Strictly! Was hoping you’d get a judges chair this year (if only to envy you your DJ collection on a weekly basis), but there’s time for that yet….

  • Louise

    Hi Anton. In a show dance on strictly, how many dances can you put in the routine? Can you say have the quickstep, cha cha and jive?

  • Edward

    Do you wish that some of the older dances were mentioned more along with some of the newer ones? Because I feel like earlier dances like Matt Dawson’s waltz, Matt Di Angelo’s salsa and Rachel Stevens’ Argentine Tango don’t get mentioned often enough

  • Amber

    Evening Anton! Have you ever been starstruck and do you have to commute to Leeds every day for Packed Lunch? Big hugs, Amber xxxxx

  • Lisa

    After your success on Steph’s Packed Lunch would you like your own chat show? If so who would be your perfect guests either from the past or present?

  • Norma

    What would you like to be remembered for dancer author or tv presenter ( love you in all three) x

  • Maxine

    Hi Anton, What I would love to know is – Have you ever considered or will you ever be opening your own Dance Academy? And if you ever did, could I possibly come and work for you? That would be ultimately the best job in the world for me!!! Much Love Maxine xxx

  • Wendy Bryant

  • Julie (from the Big Blue, Blackpool):

    How many dance partners have you had (not including the strictly celebs)?

  • Gillian:

    Hi Anton, We all know you idolise Fred and adore film musicals generally. I know which numbers I’d love to see you recreate (and the ones I’d love to do with you!), But if you could chose a number from any film and any partner to recreate it with, which (and who!) would you choose and why?

    PS – next Friday, it will be a year to the day since our first class on twitter 😮 . Haven’t missed a single one! Thank you again from the bottom of my heart for everything you’ve done – love the bones of you x Gillian

  • Ellen (curly hair):

    Who do you think your children are more like? I miss you and erin so much. Would you ever sing with a member of the public? Hint hint me maybe?! Will the YouTube channel be making a return? And how do you stay motivated? Love ellen

  • Roy & Barbara:

    Hi Anton – Roy & Barbs here! We wanted to ask:- Across all the lock-downs, what has been the most difficult aspect for you personally? We’ve missed Hugs and being able to support and enjoy live entertainment xxx PS can you provide any more details re: your appearance at Ronnie Scott’s – as guess what, “someone” would love to come and see you there!

  • Tina:

    Any tips someone with two left feet?

  • Amber:

    My question is, when did you realise that people were recognising you from Strictly and how did it feel to suddenly be “famous.” PS. Do you think some Zoom sessions for Fit at 50 could start? I need someone to stop me eating all these biscuits. Hugs xxx

  • Valerie V:

    Are any of your siblings dancers or other family members. Maybe theatrical perhaps? If not how did you get into dancing? Good job you did as you bring so much fun and inspiration to us all.🌞💃❤xx

  • Linda:

    Are you writing another book?

  • Rebecca:

    When you were learning to dance which dance did you find most difficult to learn and why?

    Do you know how you eventually want to end your book series? And do you want to keep writing once Nancy & Raymond’s story ends?

  • Wendy (Bryant):

    If you could invite four inspirational people to dinner dead or alive who would they be ?

    And… How do you prepare for a show do you have a particular order in how you get ready and what goes through your mind those last few minutes in the wings before you appear in front of your adoring audience ?

  • Lara:

    Do you wish you would have gotten more dance-talented partners on Strictly or did you enjoy every partnership you had? Was there a partnership you didn’t particularly like?

  • Natalie’s son Ewan

    Will you be back on strictly? Can I see you soon and I miss you love Ewan

  • Louise:

    Who was your most memorable partner on strictly?

  • Norma:

    If you were made a judge on strictly could you still dance with the pro’s ? I would miss seeing you dance as I think most of your fans would x

  • Christine:

    My mum and dad celebrated a special anniversary at Warners in Bembridge a while ago. Sadly, Erin had to return to London and Anton picked out my mum from the audience to dance a Viennese waltz with him. My mum was so excited and prepared Dad to take a video to show to her friends and as a keepsake. Lo and behold, just at the time she was called up, Dad was in the toilet and missed the who dance. Anton is appearing in Shrewsbury later this year where I have moved to and my mum and dad will be coming up from Pinner in Middlesex. My question is, “would you be able to give mum a dance so that my dad can capture it this time”? I guess then, Dad would be completely out of the dog house and it would make my mum’s day. Thank you x

  • Jenni:

    What’s the difference between the quickstep and the foxtrot?

  • Pauline:

    Anton. You are the perfect gentleman. Stylish, sophisticated and I have no doubt romantic. Sadly my husband Ian is rather lacking in all of these. What tips can you give him? Best wishes, Pauline

  • Diane:

    As well as writing books do you ever read books written by other authors? Many thanks from Diane.

  • Niamh:

    Will you come back to Dublin when all this madness is over? Pleeeeeeease!

    How are you enjoying your new daytime TV role on channel 4?

  • Clare M:

    What is your favourite place in the world you’ve visited x

  • Anita:

    Hi Anton, How are you doing? I’ve wanted to have a little dance with you forever! Every birthday my children ask what I would like and the answer is always at dance with Anton’. The only real chance I had was when you were due to do your Tour with Erin. I asked your tour manager Jane if I could have a dance with you when I was supposed to see at the Sage in Newcastle, a 50th birthday present to myself. It looked promising but it was obviously cancelled so that was unsuccessful. I have a list of things I’d like to do and achieve and a dance with you is at the top. My dance teacher was Ken Parks who was originally involved with the original Come Dancing. I was on Saturday night Shake Up in 1981 with Christopher Biggins and on my list was to get a copy but I’ve been unsuccessful with that too. I even wrote to Ant and Dec ( Saturday Night Take away to see if they could arrange a dance with you.) obviously when the Country was back to ‘ normal’ but that was unsuccessful. I know this is a massive request but if I never ask, I won’t get. I wish there was a way I could attach some photographs of my dance history and my ‘list’ So, my question to is, one day is there a chance my dream can come true and maybe, just maybe I can have a little dance with you? Kindest regards, Anita

  • Elissa:

    Whats your favourite dance?

  • Maddi:

    What’s the best advice you could give to somebody pursuing a career in professional dance?

    Two questions:
    1. What is a jitter bug and please can you show us a little bit
    2. if you could go dancing on the Moon (1/6 of earths gravity) what do you think will be the best dance to do?

  • Maisie:

    Hi Anton. It’s Maisie. If my best friend in heaven Lowri was still here she would ask if your mouth hurts as you are always smiling.  Did you enjoy being a judge on Strictly? You were brill. Miss you lots and see you next year for my hug

  • Kairen:

    Has anyone ever told you that you look like a mix between Woody from Toy Story and Rob Brydon (two of my favourite people!!)

  • Benita:

    You and Erin have danced together for a long time now. What do you think is the secret to your successful partnership?

  • Maureen:

    Do you still have the ‘See You Jimmy’ bonnet I gave you in Aberdeen. Mo

  • Amy:

    Hi Anton, I just wondered if you were looking forward to next year’s tour and whether you feel like the lockdown has affected you for the worse or better? It has affected everyone differently and I wondered how you were feeling with everything going back to normal again?

  • Agata:

    Hi Anton! I would like to find out if you’ve already started working on your next novel? When can we expect the new instalment of the Buckingham Hotel saga? I loved the three previous ones and can’t wait to read more! Lots of love, Agata Moroz xx

  • Lin (Dew):

    Hi Anton! If you could dance with someone, alive or historic, who would that person be and why them in particular? Lin x
