EASTENDERS fans have been left gobsmacked to discover that Chris McCausland made a major cameo in EastEnders several years ago. 

Viewers have only just discovered the clip following his cheeky dig at Strictly co-star Jamie Borthwick , who has starred on EastEnders as Jay Brown for almost two decades. 

While sitting down to chat about Week 4 of Strictly Come Dancing with his co-stars, 47-year-old comedian Chris made a crack about Jamie's family getting to see him on TV but watch something other than EastEnders. 

Sitting next to the likes of Tasha Ghouri and Shayne Ward, host Claudia Winkleman asked Jamie if his family has been enjoying watching him on the BBC dance competition show.

He added: "But they absolutely love Strictly and they've been such huge fans of the show over the years, so they can't believe I'm here shaking hips, dressed as Elton John, club-repping, it's madness, but they are loving it!"

"Must be nice for them to get to see you on the telly without having to watch EastEnders," he joked, prompting the contestant to fall into fits of laughter.

Jamie even joined in on the joke, adding: "Nice for them to see me happy," in reference to the soap's dramatic storylines. 

But it turns out Chris' dig at EastEnders was mocking himself a bit, too, as he has previously appeared on the soap. 

Chris, who is blind, appeared on EastEnders back in 2018, playing chess-player Karl for one episode.
