EASTENDERS star James Bye has landed a big-money role away from the BBC soap after his Strictly fame.<\/p>\n
The actor, who is best known for playing\u00a0Martin Fowler in the Walford based show, took part in the dance competition last year. <\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
James and partner Amy Dowden were the first pair to be eliminated from the show. <\/p>\n
Now, a year on from the show, James is about to swap EastEnders to make his pantomime debut this Christmas.<\/p>\n
The soap star will be playing the Prince in Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs at Aylesbury's Waterside Theatre. <\/p>\n
He will take to the stage from December 1 to January 3 2024.<\/p>\n
This means that James will probably have to take some time away from EastEnders to appear in the production. <\/p>\n James isn't the only star from the BBC soap who have gone on to take part in panto. <\/p>\n The likes of Steve McFadden and Shona McGarty will be this year. <\/p>\n It comes after James and his wife Victoria revealed their newborn son's name a week after his birth.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n The pair welcomed their latest arrival into the world on June 18.<\/p>\n They wrote on Instagram: "Rufus Gray\u2026 18.06.23\u2026 8lb 1oz" alongside a picture of the tot sleeping.<\/p>\n The couple share four sons in total. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/picture>oh, baby! <\/span><\/p>\n
