Anton Du Beke & Erin Boag

Since the beginning of their dancing career in 1998, Anton and Erin have achieved a wealth of success on the dance floor which includes winning the 1998 New Zealand Championships - which they won again in 1999 and also making it to the prestigious International Dance Championships at the Royal Albert Hall.

After flying up the Amateur rankings, they turned Professional in 2002 and were placed third in their very first national competition. They made it to the finals of the BDF Star Ball, the UK and International Rising Star Championships and the finals of the British National Championships for three years running in 2002, 2003 and 2004.

They have since become two of the most popular and instantly recognisable dancers in the country, having been selected to take part in the primetime BBC1 hit programme ‘Strictly Come Dancing’.

Throughout the series Anton has continued to delight viewers with his quick wit, cheeky personality and gentlemanly demeanour whilst Erin has earned the nickname ‘Miss Whiplash’ due to her habit of working her celebrity partner’s hard for great end results.
