Nick Knowles has confirmed his Strictly future following his shoulder injury earlier in the week. It's good news for fans of the DIY SOS star as Nick confirmed he had been given the all-clear to perform at the weekend.
See what he said below...
Taking to social media, the 62-year-old said: "So just an update because, look how excited my dance partner is, because we have been given clearance to dance on Saturday. It's been an interesting couple of days, full of scans and physios and people helping me. Everyone's been amazing, thank you for all of your messages of support."
The post was met with support from his co-stars with his dance partner, Luba Mushtuk, commenting with a string of muscle arm emojis while fellow competitor Montell Douglas enthused: "Wahoooo!"

"As you can see my arm is in a sling and that's because at the weekend my car broke down at the side of the motorway," he explained. "My little boy was in the car so wanted to change the tyre as quickly as I possibly could to make sure we were safe.

At the time, he promised to keep fans updated on his condition and he even appeared on Strictly: It Takes Two on Monday evening with Luba.

This week, Nick and Luba will be dancing an American Smooth to Blur's iconic hit Parklife.
