Bosh. If Strictly bosses were hoping for a smoother ride after last year’s controversy-hit series, it appears they’re already in trouble. BBC One’s shiny floor show is back tonight and the lineup announcement has naturally sparked the usual debate over the calibre of stars set to appear. Love Island’s Dani Dyer and trailblazing model Ellie Goldstein may be among the highlights, but this year, there’s one booking that’s been dominating conversation: Thomas Skinner.
If you don’t know who he is then congratulations for quitting Twitter (or X, depending on when you pulled the plug), and ditching The Apprentice before the show became a monotonous farce. Skinner first strode onto our screens in the 2019 series, and by the time he was fired by Lord Sugar in week nine, he’d proved to be reality TV gold with his confident, cheeky persona and his pathological tendency to say “bosh” after every minor achievement.
