This week we're joined by the brilliant Layton Williams for a proper catch-up about his incredible career journey. From playing Billy Elliot at 12 years old to winning an Olivier Award for playing an iceberg in Titanique (yes, really), Layton's story is wild.

We chat about his time on Strictly Come Dancing and how he pushed boundaries by performing in drag on Saturday night TV, his emotional experience filming Who Do You Think You Are and discovering his family's history, and why being the voice of I Kissed a Boy means so much to him.

Layton also opens up about how being in a loving relationship has changed his perspective on life, his Slay Clubs business that's building confidence in young people across the UK, and his passionate plea for everyone to support their local gay bars before they disappear.

Plus he explains why he thought every footballer position was a "lead role," and shares why turning 30 has made him feel like a genuinely happy, healthy homo.

It's a conversation full of laughs, honesty, and genuine insight into what it means to stay authentic while building a career in entertainment.
