Pamela Stephenson has continued to dance since her impressive third place in Strictly Come Dancing two years ago - but revealed some of her more daring moves have had their drawbacks.

The comedian-turned-sex therapist, wife of Billy Connolly, recalls 'breaking a t**' just before last Christmas at a jive club in New York, where she lives, when she mistimed a move which involved her being swung between her partner's legs face down.

"I felt no pain and was unaware of the deflation until the next morning when I looked in the mirror and realised I had one melon and one fried egg," she recalled at the beginning of her autobiography, The Varnished Untruth.

By her own admission, Pamela has had a ton of cosmetic surgery, from breast implants and Botox to a tummy tuck and facelifts.

"One of the ugliest things about me is my refusal to age gracefully," the 62-year-old admitted.

"I'm as vain as vain can be and would totally sell my soul to the devil to be a babe forever."

Pamela, who first found fame in the 70s comedy series Not The Nine O'Clock News, admitted that for years she feared getting old, but now that the deflated boob is repaired, she doubted she would have further surgery.

"I think as you get older it becomes more risky, so I'm going to focus on exercise."

Her husband Billy Connolly doesn't think all the surgery was necessary - but he has a different view of ageing, she explained: "He embraces it in a very healthy way. He just loves his bushy eyebrows, long white hair and being a grandpa."
