Strictly fans discuss ‘elephant in the room’ after Jamie Borthwick is branded a ‘cheat’ by co-star

The EastEnders star previously participated in last year’s Christmas special with Nancy Xu and won the Glitterball trophy.

JLS star JB Gill signed up for the Christmas special in 2012 with Ola Jordan and also took home the Glitterball trophy.
