Audience Quote by Joe Sugg
“There's an expectation with 'Strictly' is that I came in as a non-dancer, so they weren't expecting me to be good, whereas in a West End musical, they're expecting you to be good because you've got an audience coming in that aren't coming to watch it because you're in it, Joe Sugg.”
