As an explorer, adventurer and lover of endurance sports, a stint on Strictly Come Dancing should have been a breeze for Steve Backshall.Yet the BAFTA-winning television presenter faced an endurance battle, as he jived and quick-stepped with partner Ola Jordan in 2014, as a result of agonising pain in his right knee; pain which would subsequently be diagnosed as osteoarthritis. ‘It was just awful,’ recalls Steve, 48, who lives in Berkshire with wife Helen Glover, the Olympic gold medal rower, and their three children, Logan, three, and twins Kit and Willow, one. ‘My knee had been giving me a bit of trouble ever since I broke my left ankle in a climbing accident in 2010. It took 11 operations to try and fix the ankle but I never let up on my expeditions and adventures. ‘Throughout that time, to compensate for the weakness on my left, I was putting pressure on the opposite side of my body — and my right knee was absorbing all that. ‘The pain in my knee started slowly, but by the time I was on Strictly it was agony.’
