Louisa Lytton (BBC Profile)
Eastenders actress Louisa Lytton is really excited about taking part in Strictly Come Dancing, especially since she has met her partner Vincent Simone.
She may be the youngest of the celebrities taking part in the show, but she is determined to win it and doesn't want her age to stand in the way: "All in all I hope to win, I'm quite competitive."
Louisa's not frightened of holding her own against the judges, even though she is apprehensive about their comments.
"I do tend to say what I think, which is a bit of a worry. I'll have to make sure I keep my mouth shut!"
Louisa has done some dancing before at drama school but not ballroom or Latin dancing. She thinks that Latin will be "a bit more (her)" than ballroom and is going to make sure she gets lots of practice in.
Louisa is best known as Ruby Allen in EastEnders, whom she has played for the last two years. Before Eastenders, Louisa was a student at the Sylvia Young Theatre, where she studied singing, dance and drama.Other TV appearances include The Bill and various adverts.
She lives in London with her mum Jane and dad Alan.
