ALLY PALLY was left stunned after EastEnders icon Shaun Williamson belted out a 1980s hit on the stage.
The actor – who played Barry – took to the stage to perform for the crowd.
Williamson, 59, was filmed by audience members singing the 1987 Labi Siffre tune ‘(Something Inside) So Strong’.
He was joined in his performance by the backing darts cheerleaders as they danced along.
As he finished, plenty of fans from the seats applauded his efforts.
A video of the performance was shared on social media with many fans loving it.
One posted: “The moment of 2024. The man is an icon.”
A second wrote: “Cultural icon.”
A third commented: “Try telling me the darts is not the greatest show on earth!”
A fourth said: “Incredible.”

It comes ten years on from Williamson’s iconic performance of the same song at the World Indoor Bowls Championships in Great Yarmouth.
He sang to the bowls crowd before the tense final, which saw Scotland’s Darren Burnett beat local ace Mervyn King.
Williamson was killed off in EastEnders back in 2004 when his character Barry was pushed off a cliff.
He recently admitted that quitting the iconic soap was his best decision.
Meanwhile the PDC World Championship has seen plenty more drama.
Tournament favourite Luke Littler broke down in tears after his second round win over Ryan Mielke.
And Gary Anderson suffered a shock exit to Jeffrey de Graaf and blamed his loss on cutting down TREES.
BELOW is a list of Darts world champions by year.
The list does not include winners from the pre-Professional Darts Corporation (PDC) era or BDO world champions.
That means Raymond van Barneveld, for example, is only listed once – Barney also won four BDO titles – and none of Eric Bristow’s five BDO titles are included.
