Strictly Come Dancing Bobby Brazier makes shocking claim: ‘I’ve never watched the show’

Strictly Come Dancing 2023 is just a day away from airing. September 16, Saturday will see the launch of the 21st series of the iconic dance competition on BBC One. As 15 exceptional stars will come together in the battle of dances to take home the glitter ball trophy, all eyes are set on the launch of the show.

Amidst the new set of Strictly’s stars, EastEnders actor Bobby Brazier is an early favourite to win the show while Les Dennis is predicted to be the first eviction.

Bobby Brazier reveals he has never watched the show and neither prepared for it

However, Bobby Brazier has revealed that the bookies and people may have been wrong in choosing him as their favourite to win. According to the Mirror, the 20-year-old actor confirmed that he has never watched the show in his life and has made no preparations for it. He said:

I’ve never watched the show, so I’ll be coming in fresh!

I just love dancing so if I'm at a party, I dance, if I’m at home I dance...I’m always dancing.

Bobby also explained he doesn’t have prior dance experience and added that he has done nothing to prepare himself for the live show.

He revealed:

I've done absolutely nothing. These dancers are the fittest people I've ever met, they're like, robots – dancing machines!

Maybe I'll start stretching a little bit. As far as dancing, my whole life has been a preparation – I'm not a trained dancer but I love to dance.

Late Big Brother contestant Jade Goody’s son has indirectly hinted anyone placing bets on him making it all the way to the finals might want to reconsider.

Why is Bobby Brazier appearing on Strictly Come Dancing?

If you’re left wondering why would someone want to be on the show if they’ve never seen it or done no preparations for it, we have the answer for you. On being asked what made him take part on the show, Bobby said:

I was always going to say yes, whether it was this year, last year, the next year because I love dancing.

That's it – whether it was on TV or not, the opportunity to dance with a professional dancer, and learn a different style of dancing every week is just my idea of a good time.
