Camilla Dallerup waltzes in to Telford for panto role


Strictly Come Dancing star Camilla Dallerup waltzed into Telford this afternoon for the glittering launch of the town's Christmas pantomime.
The Danish dancer, 38, will star as the fairy godmother in a lavish production of Cinderella at Oakengates Theatre @ The Place - only the second pantomime she has ever appeared in.
"I love theatre," she said.
"If I could work in theatre for the rest of my life I would be happy and skip to work every day.
"Panto is just the biggest laugh," she added.
"It's just the best as in Denmark we do not have this tradition, and when I came here I just thought it was wonderful."
Camilla won Strictly in 2008 with Holby City actor Tom Chambers but decided not to return for the 2009 series.
She now partners Ian Waite, and is enjoying her time treading the boards.
She will star in Calendar Girls at Wolverhampton's Grand Theatre from November 12 until November 17 before joining the cast of the pantomime from December 7 until New Year's Eve.
