Absolutely brilliant,” the actor confirmed warmly. Asked if he thought Kym had the potential to win the competition, Charlie replied: “Well, the standard is unbelievably high. “I’m not a regular viewer, if I’m being entirely honest, but I did watch the entire thing yesterday and a lot of people… “Hamza [Yassin], who I wasn’t aware of before, was absolutely extraordinary. Charlie added that another star to impress him with his moves was Will Mellor, whom he had overlapped with during his time on Corrie. “Usually there’s someone that’s there and people turn their noses up and they snort and they laugh, but everyone is doing such a good job,” Charlie reflected. “I love to see it, because I think Kym’s an absolute force of nature,” he added. “But I think it would be insincere of me to say… Because this year the competition she’s up against is unbelievable.
