Speaking of the experience on Strictly's spin-off show It Takes Two on Friday night, Adam said: "I don't know what it was, I was sort of preparing myself for it. That night especially. I just felt like it was going to be our night to be in the dance-off. But nothing can prepare you for the dance-off.
"It was so daunting and I was so nervous." On getting positive comments for previous performances, Adam said: "It's amazing but it starts to play with you a little bit because you are getting great comments and great scores. You start to think what am I doing wrong?"
Then laughing, he jokingly said: "There's only so much more I can do here. Why don't you like me?
But Adam's professional dancing partner Luba Mushtuk said: "I feel like every week we do everything we can. This man has a lot on his plate every week and all we can do is control how we perform on the night."
Meanwhile, Adam has told of how he feels like a 'proud dad' about the performance of another Strictly star this year.
The actor previously spoke about joining Ellie Leach in the BBC One dance contest before the 2023 series kicked off back in September.
