One of this year's contestants, Richie Anderson, and his dance partner Giovanni Pernice, were spotted outside Southbroom St James Academy in the town at 10:50am.

They filmed getting out of a car before being greeted by school staff members. 

Richie Anderson told BBC Radio Wiltshire this morning that the couple will be dancing the Samba to Hakuna Matata on Saturday night.

It is thought that Richie and Giovanni were reharsing their Saturday night dance at the Devizes school, giving children and staff a first glimpse of the routine.

Their visit comes not long after rumours that the pair were feuding, although it seemed to be smiles all round today.

The show often gives viewers a flavour of what the dancers have been up to on a weekly basis before the show airs, meaning our county could be taking to the screens this weekend to show a snippet of their visit.
