ok.co.ukJames Jordan has shared his thoughts on this year's Strictly Come Dancing, branding finalist Layton Williams the "best dancer" the BBC show has ever seen, but questioned the decision to let him appear.
James, 45, who appeared on Strictly from 2006 until 2013, posts his opinions about the BBC One show each week, revealing which dances he loves and whether he agrees with the judges' scoring.
Ahead of the final, which will air on Saturday, 16 December, James opened up about Layton, 29, after he received a perfect score of 40 out of 40 for his Charleston with Nikita Kuzmin, 25, during the semi-final.
