Strictly history for Jonnie Peacock

Britain鈥檚 gold medallist Jonnie Peacock is making British television history, by becoming the first competitor with a disability on the 麻豆社鈥檚 Strictly Come Dancing.

Fellow Paralympian Heinrich Popow competed in the German version, 鈥淟et鈥檚 Dance鈥� earlier this year, but he had to pull out after reaching the semi-final because his stump started to swell.

The German admitted he became injured after the second show, but his popularity pushed him through.
