The pair appeared on the hit show last June and were then approached by the German version and asked to fly out to Bremen in August.

The market traders from Willenhall appeared on German television just before Christmas, and when none of the judges hit the red buzzer, they didn't make it through to the next round.

Dave, 62, said: "It was different but good, and nerve-wracking in some ways.

"We loved it in Germany, they treated us like royalty.

"They asked us to go over and do it. We didn't have any buzzers but we didn't get through to the next stage.

"We were the only English couple on there."

Dave and Marg are back to their dancing lessons now and are looking at working with people with dementia.

The pair have performed in care homes in the Black Country and are looking to do more.

Dave added: "We'd like to work with people with dementia. We've done a couple of shows in homes, it brings their memories back of dancing like we do."
