The moment of triumph for Ellie and Vito Cox, who played Logan Roy in the TV drama Succession, was questioned about Strictly when he appeared on BBC One’s Sunday With Laura Kuenssberg.
“I’ve actually been asked to be on it,” he confirmed.
“I declined,” he added. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy dancing… I’m not sure why, but there always seems to be a comedy element in it.
“There’s almost a character that’s going to be getting the elbow… and I just thought, ‘I don’t know if I want to go down that road’.”
