Strictly Come Dancing may have lost one of its banner names when Made In Chelsea’s Jaime Lang was forced to withdraw with an injury prior to the show’s return to screens last month, but luckily another beloved TV gent was on hand fill his (dancing) shoes.
Former Emmerdale star Kelvin Fletcher made up for lost time when he shimmied onto the dancefloor with partner Oti Mabuse last week, quickly establishing himself as one of the favourites in the competition with a sizzling samba and some rather tight trousers.
Of course, Kelvin’s physical talents will come as no surprise to longtime Attitude readers, who may remember that the actor showed off his acrobatic abilities for a cover shoot and interview back in 2011, where he discussed fitness, soap stardom and snogging his mates down the pub, as you do.
Natrually, we couldn’t let Kelvin’s return to the small screen on Strictly go by without a little trip down memory lane, so here’s a little something to tide you over until the 35-year-old returns to the dancefloor this weekend. Enjoy…
