Another capture showed her doing the splits during her warm-up stretches.

Zara admitted on BBC Radio One on Monday that she's preparing to push herself out of comfort zone, having had "zero" dance experience.

"Strictly is such a far cry from my day job," she said.

"I've spent the last three years making documentaries in a very small team, but Strictly is live. You cannot make a mistake, you have 'one take' only.

"This is just so far out of my comfort zone. I've spent the whole of my 20s pushing myself out of my comfort zone, but this is the pinnacle now.

"I have zero dance experience. I don't even dance in a nightclub - I'm that petrified of dancing."
