Great video Chris and Jonny - nearly as funny as the gymnastics! I've been hoping you would do figure skating since last season as its 'my' sport. Much harder than it looks, isn't it? My daughter and I are voting for horse riding next - maybe you could ride shetland ponies so its not too far to fall! Why don't you release full length versions of the videos in aid of Children in Need this year?

Very funny - especially Chris's outfit - definitely CBBs but what I want to know is - at the beginning when they are introduced to their partners, and they have their arms behind each other, why does Chris's partner look like she's holding his bottom?!

Hilarious Chris and Jonny. gotta say though those trousers left very little to the imagination. Definately think horse riding should be in this seasons mix of sporting challenges.
