Strictly Craig: Dance was my only escape from abuse at home

The star, 60, also said dance was his "only escape".

He made the admission on Good Morning Britain yesterday after talking about his childhood on his new UK tour.

He told the ITV show: "My father was an alcoholic. I do talk about that in the show because that led me towards the dancing.

Tough

"And anyone at home I know that's watching this that has dealt with alcoholism, it's really, really tough, and we were abused as children, and my whole family was, and that was my only escape.

My urge for nightly toilet dashes are now out of control

I'm a 78-year-old woman and lately have been getting up three or four times in the night to use the toilet. It is not too much of a problem but I've noticed that by the time I get there, I have leaked, even though I get up as soon as I need to go. Last night, as I made my way to the bathroom, I wet myself so much it just gushed out of me, which is rather disturbing. I don't have the same in the day although I do feel the need to go, but don't do much. What do you suggest?
