Former Hollyoaks actress Ali Bastian has said she loves rehearsing for her new West End show Burn the Floor with her boyfriend.
The actress met Strictly Come Dancing choreographer Brian Fortuna while she was a contestant in 2009 and they are both to appear in the dance spectacular this summer.
Bastian told Bang Showbiz she is having fun in training because it reminds her of the early days of their relationship.
"I love working with Brian
It's tiring, but so much fun and that's how we met, working together," she commented.
Burn the Floor is a two-hour show featuring a range of different dances, including waltzes, swing, cha-cha and boogie-woogie.
It will arrive at the Shaftesbury Theatre on July 26th 2010.
Meanwhile, Bastian is not the only Hollyoaks actress to make the transition from small screen to West End.
Jennifer Biddall, who played Jessica Harris in the teatime soap, appeared in Dreamboats and Petticoats last year.
