COMEDIAN Judi Love says Strictly is good for her health – despite two contestant missing last night’s show because of illness and injury.
Actor Robert Webb, 49, quit the series on medical advice two years after life-saving heart surgery.
And former England Rugby ace Ugo Monye, 38, watched from home due to a back injury.
Co-presenter Tess Daly told viewers: “As you can see Robert and Dianne (Buswell) are not here this evening. Early this week Robert withdrew from the competition for health reasons.”
She added: “We wish you all the best Robert, we have loved having you here and you will be missed.”
Claudia Winkleman said Ugo and his partner Oti Mabuse were also not appearing.
