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.
