Professional dancer Katya Jones and boxer Nicola Adams have had to leave the contest due to Katya testing positive for Covid-19. They are expected to return to the main contest next year.
Now one of the judges Motsi Mabuse has announced she has to quarantine for two weeks after going on an ‘urgent trip’ to Germany.
She may be temporarily replaced by Anton Du Beke who should be good fun!
I don’t know if Bruno Tonioli intends returning to the judging panel?
Who will go off next (Not with covid), the hosts Tess Daly and Claudia Winklemann? Fingers crossed as they really irritate!
There was a time when Strictly was the highlight of the TV week. I can remember really looking forward to it and one year I was torn between watching Strictly or the carnival that goes right past our house.
Then came the screaming crowd, the infantile jokes by Claudia and the useless tall one. Add to that the stupid vignettes and more recently Craig Revel Horwood’s plan to turn the show into a gay pride event and that was it for me.
As for the boxer woman, I have read that she is not very good but is miraculously kept in every week - until now.
Too many egos for me, but I hope folks keep watching it, I would hate to think a repeat episode of Wheeler Dealers would crash because of a switch of allegiance.
