Following her exit, Susan has also said she would like to fulfil another ambition – appearing in Doctor Who.

She tweeted: “Now I’ve been on Strictly this is the one burning ambition I have left. To be The Doctor. Or be in Doctor Who. Or, to be honest, just be allowed anywhere near Doctor Who in any way.”
