Daring Kelly Brook does the splits (and treats Craig Revel-Horwood to a kiss) as Stricktly Come Dancing tour kicks off

Her dancing is probably a little rusty after spending the last few months performing on stage in Calendar Girls.

But Kelly Brook stole the show last night as the Strictly Come Dancing tour got off to a stunning start in Manchester.

The model-turned-actress, 30, looked in great shape and full of energy as she was put through her paces for the tour's opening night.

Taking the stage in an eye-catching red leotard with frills, Kelly dazzled both the judges and the crowd with a daring routine.

After the judges gave their verdict on her performance. Kelly raced over to Craig Revel-Horford to give him a playful kiss on the cheek.

Kelly had pulled out of the show in 2007 after her father died and the series was eventually won by Alesha Dixon, who went on to replace Arlene Phillips on the judging panel.

The line up for the tour includes eight stars from the show past and present.

Five contestants from the most recent series are takling part, headed up by winner Chris Hollins along with Natalie Cassidy, Ricky Groves, Ali Bastian and Zoe Lucker.

Kelly makes a comeback along with 2008 competitot Austin Heatley and 2006 winner, cricketer Mark Ramprakash.

And fans of the original judging line-up will be pleased, with Arlene Phillips making her return to the panel alongside Len Goodman, Craig Revel Hornwood and Bruno Tonioli.

New judge Alesha Dixon has not been signed to take part in the five-week long tour.
