The young actor has been tipped to take home the Glitterball this year. <\/p>
We\u2019re yet to see the Strictly Come Dancing 2023 line-up<\/a> take to the dance floor, with the launch show set to air on Saturday 16th September<\/a> and the live shows expected to follow the week after.<\/p>\n But the bookies believe they\u2019ve already spotted this year\u2019s winner in the form of EastEnders<\/a> star Bobby Brazier<\/a>.<\/p>\n Brazier has been the bookies\u2019 clear frontrunner for season 21, which will see him compete against the likes of reality TV star and documentary maker Zara McDermott<\/a>, TV presenter and actor Les Dennis<\/a>, tennis legend Annabel Croft<\/a> and more.<\/p>\n However, the 20-year-old doesn\u2019t have the same faith when it comes to his dancing abilities.<\/p>\n Speaking of the favourable odds, he said: \u201cI think that\u2019s just because I\u2019m young. They have no reason to think that. It\u2019s just because I\u2019m young and apparently quite fun.\u201d<\/p>\n Asked who his biggest competition is, Bobby admitted he\u2019s a little worried about comedian Eddie Kadi<\/a>\u2018s \u201chips\u201d.<\/p>\n \u201cEddie\u2019s hips \u2013 oh my gosh! Wow. They\u2019re no joke. I\u2019m so inspired by his hips.\u201d<\/p>\n Read more:<\/strong><\/p>\n And it looks like Bobby might be taking a leaf out of Eddie\u2019s book when it comes to the \u201csexy dances\u201d, which he revealed he\u2019s most looking forward to.<\/p>\n When asked what dance he wants to do, he told RadioTimes.com<\/a> exclusively: \u201cI keep saying the sexy ones. By that I mean the hips and the shoulders.\u201d<\/p> Like the rest of this year\u2019s celebs, Bobby\u2019s Strictly Come Dancing professional partner will be revealed during Saturday\u2019s launch show.<\/p>\n He added: \u201cThe journey that I\u2019m going to go on with my partner, and my friends now, it\u2019s going to be so beautiful. They\u2019re going to see me at my best and at my worst, and it\u2019s just a really sweet thing, I think.\u201d<\/p>\n Strictly Come Dancing starts at 6:35pm on 16th September on BBC One and BBC iPlayer<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n Check out more of our\u00a0<\/strong>Entertainment<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0coverage or visit our\u00a0<\/strong>TV Guide<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<\/strong>Streaming Guide<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0to find out what\u2019s on.<\/strong><\/p>\n Try Radio Times magazine today and get 10 issues for only \u00a310, PLUS a \u00a310 John Lewis and Partners voucher delivered to your home \u2013\u00a0subscribe now<\/a>.
