Nicholas Bailey Steps Into Strictly Christmas World
The soap’s favourite Nicholas is ready for something new. He is going to be on the Strictly Come Dancing Christmas Special. The actor portrays Dr Anthony Trueman in the BBC soap and has been around since the early 2000s. After being away from Albert Square for some time, he returned this year. He came for his father Patrick’s wedding to Yolande.

A source said that to date, people have seen his face but have not seen him step out as himself. Now, he will not be the calm doctor but will be seen in a confident style under Christmas lights.
