Abby Lee Miller and Jennifer Ellison

Jennifer Ellison says that she wants a UK versus US version of Dance Mums.

The former Brookside actress fronts Dance Mums with Jennifer Ellison, which follows a number of talented dancers at her Fame Academy school in Liverpool and their pushy parents, and now confesses she'd love to see her students go up against those on the US version.

Dance Moms follows dance teacher Abby Lee Miller as she deals with difficult parents and their child performers, taking their first steps on the road to stardom.

Quizzed on whether there are any plans, Jennifer exclusively told BANG Showbiz: "There is, there's talks, so we're just going to see how this goes and then go from there. I'd love it to get another series, I'd love to follow the girls' stories and careers.

"I'd love to do the UK versus the US, my girls versus her [Abby] girls. I think that would be an amazing show. It would just be really exciting and really great TV."

The star also claimed she'd be more than capable in standing her ground against Abby, who's become notorious for her no-nonsense attitude on the American show.

"I could give her a run for her money, no problem. I've been in this industry for nineteen years and done various West End shows and won every title there is to win in dance so yeah I can give her a run for her money."

'Dance Mums With Jennifer Ellison' is on Mondays at 9pm on Lifetime (Sky 156 / Virgin 242 / TalkTalk 490).
