EastEnders fans have a lot to look forward to this Christmas as one of their beloved stars, Nicholas Bailey, has been confirmed to take part in this year’s Strictly Come Dancing Christmas special. The news has sparked excitement among viewers, as many are eager to see the talented actor showcase his dancing skills on the popular show.
Best known for his role as Albert Square’s doctor, Anthony Trueman, Nicholas has been a part of the EastEnders family for the past 25 years. He has captivated audiences with his powerful performances and has become a familiar face in households across the nation. Now, he is set to take on a new challenge and hit the dance floor with professional dancer Luba Mushtuk, who unfortunately did not have a celebrity partner this season.
The announcement was made on Tuesday afternoon and Nicholas couldn’t contain his excitement. He shared, “I’m really excited to be doing this, almost as excited as my wife and daughters are! Hopefully I’ll do them, Albert Square and Luba proud.” He also added, “Bring on the dance floor!” It is evident that Nicholas is thrilled to be a part of the show and cannot wait to show off his moves.
Nicholas is the fourth celebrity to be confirmed for the Strictly Come Dancing Christmas special, joining former I’m A Celebrity winner Scarlett Moffatt, All Saints singer Melanie Blatt, and Gladiators favorite Jodie Ounsley, also known as Fury. With such a diverse and talented line-up, this Christmas special is sure to be a festive extravaganza.
Besides his successful career on EastEnders, Nicholas has also appeared in other popular shows such as Coronation Street and the radio soap The Archers. He even competed on the talent show Soapstar Superstar back in 2006, finishing in eighth place overall. With his experience in the entertainment industry, there is no doubt that Nicholas will bring his A-game to the dance floor on the Strictly Christmas special.
This year’s Christmas episode of Strictly Come Dancing is an important one, as it will mark the final time Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman present the show together.

But, before we get too excited for the Christmas special, there is still a lot to look forward to in the regular series of Strictly. This Saturday, the remaining pairs will be taking part in a unique challenge during the live show, which has the potential to dramatically change the current leaderboard. With the competition heating up, it will be a night not to be missed.
