Strictly Come Dancing star Kelvin Fletcher put some time away from training to play a prank on his dance partner Oti Mabuse - much to the delight of their fans! Earlier this week, during one of their training sessions, the former Emmerdale star snuck up behind Oti, who was completely unaware of his presence and engrossed in her phone. "Arghhhh," she screamed in the video, which Kelvin had filmed on his phone.
