EASTENDERS actor Jamie Borthwick has signed up to Strictly Come Dancing — just months after he won the festive special.
Jamie, who plays Jay Brown on the soap, scored the highest possible mark of 40 in the Christmas show.
Jamie, 30, who has starred in the BBC soap for 18 years, was paired with pro Nancy Xu.
It is not known who will be his partner in the autumn.
A TV insider said: “Although an EastEnders actor is on Strictly every year, this is the first time a performer on the festive special has gone directly into the competition.
“Producers and viewers were blown away by Jamie’s dancing.
