The nation’s favourite dance show will be back on the BBC this year for its 20th series. The multi-award winning Strictly Come Dancing will once again be bringing glitz and glamour to Saturday and Sunday nights.
Today the BBC announced the professional dancers who will appear in this year’s series. They include reigning champion Giovanni Pernice - who lifted the 2021 Strictly Glitterball trophy along with his partner, actress Rose Ayling-Ellis.
Two-time winner Oti Mabuse and 2013 champion Aljaž Škorjanec won’t be returning after they both recently revealed they are quitting the programme. BBC bosses have not yet added any new professionals to the line-up - but revealed some could be announced in due course.
