Additionally, BBC Three released a behind-the-scenes video with Joe when the announcement went out, stating, “On Strictly we all have code names, and I was Feta, which actually means that I’m going to be on Strictly [Come Dancing] this year, dancing which I can’t do very well.

“I’m very, very nervous, and very excited. We will see how it goes, see how long I’ll last. Hopefully, I’ll make it past the first or second week.”
