The Coronation Street star said: "My wife Camilla is very impressed with my new hip movements. She will kill me for saying that."
But the down side is Craig, 39, partnered with Flavia Cacace, took up smoking again to calm his nerves.
He said: "I was smoking four or five cigarettes before we went out - and I don't smoke.
"I smoked for about 14 years and finally quit four years ago after trying for ages. Then suddenly I was smoking again. I was so nervous. I would panic even at the thought of the Strictly announcer saying: 'Craig Kelly and Flavia Cacace'. My palms would start sweating."
So he went for acupuncture last week and has now managed to kick the cigs once more.
