YES I get to fly .. Playing Peter Pan. Super Excited
AJ Pritchard
Heading into his fourth series on Strictly Come Dancing, the star could miss the final, if he makes it, after confirming his new role as Peter Pan.
In the 17th series of the BBC show, AJ is set to be one of the star attraction after a number of recent pro dancer exits.
However, he sent fans into meltdown yesterday as he confirmed he is to be Peter Pan in a new panto launching on December 10.
On Instagram, he posted a photo of the promo and added: “YES I get to fly .. Playing Peter Pan. Super Excited.... #Panto (16th December 2019 - 5th January) @grovetheatredunstable.”
Fans of the show were instantly worried and replied, with one saying: “What if you are in the strictly final?”
Another added: “Does this mean you’re not going to do Strictly?”
A third fan was just happy they will get to see more of him: “Can’t wait to see you as Peter Pan in Jan AJ.”
The Strictly final was on December 15 last year and December 16 the year before so there is the real chance he would miss the final if he got there.
However, he did make it clear in his Instagram caption he would be on the show from December 16 so perhaps there is a stand-in until he arrives as soon as Strictly finishes.
He has definitely confirmed he will be on
