Bobby Brazier admitted he ‘has never watched’ Strictly Come Dancing as partner Dianne Buswell revealed he ‘doesn’t know what any of the dances are.’
The EastEnders actor, 20, and the professional dancer, 34, made the funny admission on This Morning on Wednesday ahead of this weekend’s first live show.
Host Holly Willoughby said that Bobby had a confession to make as he explained: ‘My first experience of Strictly is being on Strictly.’
Laughing, Dianne added: ‘Every time I tell him the dance he’s like ‘I’ve never heard of it.’ It is quite exciting because he is learning from scratch so has no bad habits.’
The duo, who are the early favourites to win, will take to the floor this weekend with sources saying BBC bosses are keen for Bobby to make it to the final after they let him have some time off from EastEnders.

Despite having never seen the show, the actor added that he ‘begged’ his boss to let him take part.
‘It was a no brainer, it was a yes straight away. I begged my boss to let me do it. I’m grateful that he did let me do it and take the time off,’ he added.
‘I think this weekend is either going to go really well or really badly.’
‘He only knows one style at the moment. But I think that style is what he will be best at. Bobby has a natural groove to him and great charisma,’ Dianne explained.
Joking that he got his ‘moves’ from his dad Jeff, 44, Bobby exclaimed: ‘My dad is a good mover! Where do you think I got the caterpillar from.’
It comes after the soap star revealed to the MailOnline that he ‘doesn’t have any intention to be a home wrecker at all!’ as he discussed the show ‘curse.’
He recently split from his on-off girlfriend Liberty Love who he had been dating for more than 18 months.
Dianne met her YouTuber boyfriend Joe Sugg on Strictly in 2018 where they finished runners-up and have since remained in a strong and loving relationship.

At the National Television Awards, Bobby exclusively said: ‘I know everybody who has a relationship there – they’re in love.
‘I don’t have any intention to be a home wrecker at all! I’m looking for a big sister and a lovely relationship.’
Following Bobby’s breakup, a source said: ‘She and Bobby had been on and off but now it seems that it’s over for good.’
‘It means he cannot fall prey to the Strictly Curse – where romance blossoms between contestants and professional dancers already in relationships.’
