Will Mellor left the judges 'speechless' as his Strictly Come Dancing debut drove viewers at home wild on Saturday night, had his pro partner Nancy Xu in tears and drew comparisons to former champion Kelvin Fletcher.
Former Hollyoaks and Two Pints of Lager actor Will was labelled as 'one to watch' with the bookies from the moment his name landed on the Strictly line-up, with judge Craig Revel-Horwood also saying during a One Show interview that Will was the celeb he was most looking forward to watching.
Well Will certainly up to the hype as he and Nancy, who did rather well last year alongside Rhys Stephenson, performed a red hot jive to Ricky Martin summer 1999 smash Livin' La Vida Loca. Shirley Ballas and Motsi Mabuse were both beside themselves on the panel as they shot out of their seats to give them a standing ovation.
