Strictly viewers predict Layton Williams will make HISTORY during ‘fix’ feud, while Les Dennis fails to impress as stars hit the dance floor for the very first time
Strictly Come Dancing viewers have already tipped who they think will win the new series after the glitzy BBC competition returned to screens on Saturday.
The launch episode saw the celebrities meet their partners before hitting the dance floor for the first time in a disco-themed group routine.
And fans predicted Layton Williams would make history by becoming the first-ever winning same-sex pairing.
It comes despite the show facing a ‘fix’ row after fans claimed the actor had been given unfair advancement following his West End performances and Stage School training.
After the performance, viewers took to Twitter in droves, writing: ‘A same-sex couple is going to win this year, I can feel it in my bones!!!!!’.
