TAKING to the Strictly dancefloor in front of millions last Saturday night, Bury-born actor Layton Williams and his dance partner Nikita Kuzmin delivered a mesmerising samba which received huge praise from the judges.
Their performance, to Cuban anthem Quimbara, earned them a total score of 39 out of 40 points from the judges - something which has not happened in week five of the competition in 13 years. It was just one of the many moments that Layton, 29 has cited as a particular highlight during his time on the show.
A star of the West End, thanks to impressive turns in Everybody's Talking About Jamie, Hairspray and Billy Elliot, it's fair to say that Layton has come into Strictly with a bit of naysayers who claim he has an 'unfair advantage' over others on the show.
