Layton Williams has said farewell to his BBC role as he prepares to make his debut on Strictly Come Dancing. The 28-year old actor has signed up to star in the 21st series of the popular dance contest in a bid to take home the Glitterball trophy.
Taking to his Instagram account on Monday , the actor told his 140,000 followers that he was taking a break from his character, for now. Sharing a selfie as well as some behind-the-scenes snaps, he wrote the caption: "That's a wrap on #BadEducation series 5. Instagram As the Strictly stars already know who they've been matched with, they've been teasing viewers on social media who are desperate to know the pairings. Layton recently tried to trick his fans into thinking he was revealing who his pro partner was.
It's not the first time the West End star has caused fans to speculate his pairing, as the star took to Instagram with a video last week. "Me, minutes before I met my Strictly PRO," a message over the video read.
