Sunetra Sarker has admitted she's finding it hard to juggle both her time filming Casualty and practicing for Strictly Come Dancing.

The actress has been working on both shows since it was announced she'd be competing in the BBC One ballroom competition, and has revealed it's tougher than many may thing.

Speaking to BANG Showbiz Sunetra said: "Learning the medical words is hard enough, but then learning steps to try and keep it in another part of my memory has been hard... I found it really hard actually... using a different part of my brain."

And now that the Casualty set has been moved to Cardiff since 2011, she admits that commuting from Wales to her Bristol home and then to London for Strictly has taken its toll.

"Cardiff, Bristol where I live and London. So there's a lot of trains and planes and driving. Maybe I should go on sabbatical to 'Holby' and then I'll be nearby."
